This is sad news. Putting aside Penn's cooler credits for a moment, I'll always be fondest of his Willard Hewitt in Footloose. If you haven't watched the newest DVD, with its extremely pleasing commentary track, you should for Penn's sake alone.

Hey emdashes — apparently Chris Penn actually died on Jan. 24 of this year, so your title should read 1962-2006. Very sad news — that scene in Footloose where Kevin Bacon teaches him how to dance is one of my alltime favorites. Let’s hear it for the boy.
