Fellini lives on in my memory, and I had planned to forget about him this year

Looking at "Kevin McCarthy" crossed out on my list reminds me of a student who did poorly on a test and the teacher hangs it up for all to see. I tell you, I am damaged for life.

Anyone have Major Dick Winters? 92 years old. He is the real-life person who was the central character and commander of Easy Company in "Band of Brothers". I recently read his book, "Beyond Band of Brothers". A very interesting account of his life in the military. Not your average person.

RIP Major Winters.

Band Of Brothers is a great movie.

David Nelson, the last surviving member of his family, died at age 74 after losing a battle with colon cancer. His parents, Ozzie and Harriett, and his brother David, all starred in a popular tv series in the 1950s.

R.I.P. David

Oh really? I'm so sorry to hear that. I didn't know he was sick. Too bad!


TIS

I always wanted hair like Ricky or David.

weird...so they named both sons david, that has to be confusing

"Newhart" had three Darryls.

(his brother's name was Ricky).

Singer Margaret Whiting has died at age 86.

Dick Winters lived less than 15 minutes from me, and I got to meet him socially several times. A close friend of mine, who had been a Pentagon official, would have him over the house with some brass for summer parties. I didn't know him well, but he seemed like a very pleasant gentleman.

I just read that John Dye has died. For those who don't recognize the name, he was a co-star of the tv series, 'Touched By An Angel'.

This is aweful...pretty young guy, age 47 and he died of a heart attack!

I was sorry to just discover that actress Jill Haworth died on January 3. She should have had a much better career than she did.

Besides her role in the film Exodus, probably the best-known things she's remembered for are appearing opposite David McCallum in an episode of The Outer Limits titled "The Sixth Finger" and creating the role of Sally Bowles on Broadway in the original 1966 production of Cabaret. As the story goes, she stayed with the show over two years to spite a well-known critic who had given her a bad review!

Then, of course, there was that (in)famous "feminine deodorant spray" TV commercial she did many years ago. It might have been the first of its kind. Feminique (?) I think it was??

Anyway, I was quite saddened to read that the died in her sleep in her Manhattan apartment. R.I.P.

Signor V.

SV, I remember her well. She was a pretty girl. She was often a co-star rather than the star no? And, wasn't she married to Robert Wagner?

Sorry to hear of her passing.


TIS

No, you're thinking of Jill St. John. And, to the best of my knowledge, she is still married to Robert Wagner. Jill Haworth was British.

Signor V.

This is a shame. I loved that show.

Thanks SV,

Of course I was thinking of Jill St. John. I have no idea how I got to two mixed up, since I am not as familiar with Hayworth. Anyway, still too bad of her passing.

Rest in peace, "Andrew". One of my favorite shows ever.

LONDON – British actress Susannah York, one of the leading stars of British and Hollywood films in the late 1960s and early 1970s, has died in London at the age of 72.

York died of cancer Saturday at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London.

Her son, the actor Orlando Wells, said York was an incredibly brave woman who did not complain about her illness and a "truly wonderful mother." He said she went into the hospital on Jan. 6 after experiencing shoulder pain.

York had a long, distinguished career on film, television and on stage, but she is best remembered for her early roles, when she had an immediate impact that started with her 1963 role as Albert Finney's love interest in the memorable period piece romp "Tom Jones."

Susannah York

"Tom Jones" was the first adult movie with sexual overtones that I ever saw. Part of a double bill with "Irma LaDouce" (Shirley MacLaine playing a Parisian prostitute) it was quite an eye-opening experience to this then 13 year old boy. (I had lied to my mother and told her I was going to see "King Kong vs. Godzilla" with my friends).

To say that York left a profound effect on me is a gross understatement.

Can't imagine why that would have been the case...

Sargent Shriver dies

Oh no!! I can't say I am surprised because I know he's suffered from Alzheimer's for quite a while now. I remember Maria lovingly remembering her father who had no idea who she was now. What a horrible horrible way to go. RIP



TIS

My heart goes out to anyone who has the terrible disease. RIP

But you didn't pick him. You picked Kevin McCarthy instead.

You better get your act together, TIS.

No kidding!! What am I nuts??? (don't answer that).
