But...Plissken!

*Drool* He was so fucking gorgeous with that long hair. He's STILL fucking gorgeous. But I think my most-fave movie of his is probably Tombstone, which also had the spectacularly-talented Val Kilmer. And Powers Booth, who recently got a mention in this thread.

Stanton was one of those actors who regardless of the lousy actors, directors and writers involved in a movie always did his best and made his roles as good as they could be. I think the best actors in Hollywood are the character actors.

Love it...

"In later life, when strangers recognized him but could not quite place his face, he would tell them he was a retired astronaut."

Brilliant!

She saw in him what others didn't. That horse was a total bad ass. Very strange, I'm not really into Derby and all that jazz, but just a total bad ass.

 

[SpectoVia]

Ahhh....Secretariat

I always wondered if they "retired" him the right way.

Did they put the brood mare in the paddock with him and let nature take its course?

Or did they strap a machine on him and turn on the highlight reel from "National Velvet" or "Flicka"?

I could watch the '73 Belmont race on a loop all day long. Literally makes me tear up. Utterly magnificent animal.

I suspect probably the latter. I have no first-hand knowledge of it, but I've heard that horse breeding is rather violent... Any mare that would be judged superior enough to breed with him, they probably wouldn't want to risk under those flying hooves. But maybe in his old age, he was allowed the normal delights of a stallion, when he was too old to be much of a hazard.

You really do not want to know how the horse breeding business works.....

Steven Tyler has seemingly had a seizure and had to cancel their remaining tour dates. Let's hope it's not too serious and he recovers, because dammit, we've lost enough already this year.

Madonna has a deal.

A slick chick, Madonna Louise Ciccone wouldn't have sold her soul cheap
and would likely have insisted on longevity being part of the contract.
Eventually the debt will be collected but I'll bet ya Sean goes first.

Honestly I think she's gonna check out MJ style first.
I would love to see BILL 'PERVERT' COSBY check out next. But the evildoers never leave quick.

I'm a huge fan of Connery's bond films so that will be a sad one for me.

Bro, when I found out Raymond Burr was dead it was a sad day, but when I found he was gay It was traumatic

This was my role model.....I own all of the episodes of Perry Mason on DVD...
The first few bars of the theme song was the tune my PC played when it booted.

Yea..happily so apparently. He was Canadian. His lover and he owned a vineyard and a ranch in California.

Exactly. Perry Mason ran from 1957 to 1966. The Stone Wall Inn rebellion wasn't until 1969.
Burr met his lover on the set of Perry Mason. He was married to Isabella Ward

in 1948 but it didn't last and they divorced in 1952.
He met Robert Benevides in the 50's on the set of Perry Mason
and lived happily ever after until he died in 1993.
