Keats was an excellent actor. It may not have been the career that caused him to take his life - we'll never know. He wasn't preppy enough to fit in with the Hurt crowd, but he did deserve better roles than he got, at least on film.

the most annoying thing about him in DEATH WISH is the way he said "DAD" to Bronson. but he played the part well, because he's supposed to be annoying. this becomes apparent when bronson, who has become a working vigilante, is playing happy (game show sounding) music in his orange painted apartment, and keats says something like "You don't seem very depressed, dad" and Bronson snaps at him. awesome scene.
dont forget he played larry schiller in THE EXECUTIONER'S SONG. not a perfect film but he did well in that. -

To me, as a Boston native of partial Irish descent, he seemed a little out of place in the film, with his very New York Jewish accent and mannerisms. Then again, for all I know, his character was Jewish and from New York. His performance wasn't bad, but Robert Mitchum really nailed his role and was the most authentic, I think.

Keats was terrific in his film debut as Jackie Brown. I especially love the scene in which Brown displays open contempt for the hippie wannabes who he considers to be total rank amateurs.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
