Well, bother: Chris Penn, who played Nice Guy Eddie Cabot in Reservoir Dogs, died yesterday at age 43 40.

Police found his body in an apartment in Santa Monica, California. No cause of death was noted, but foul play was not suspected. Mr. Penn was the younger brother of Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn, and related by marriage (by way of his musician brother, Michael) to singer-songwriter Aimee Mann.

Tip of the Wisconsin hat to the European news service, Reuters.

EDIT: Mr. Penn's age was previously reported to be 43. Your correspondent regrets the error, which stemmed from believed-to-be-accurate recounting of IMDB information. The IMDB now reflects an age of 40 for Mr. Penn.
