RIP...

Lost a legend in Duvall. RIP sir.

Sad news. Academy award winning actor Robert Duvall passed away yesterday at the age of 95. From Boo Radley in To Kill A Mockingbird to The Godfather, Lonesome Dove, MASH, True Grit, Apocalypse Now, and Falling Down, just to name a few. One of the alltime greatest actors with an extraordinary career.

Sorry, the list of actors still living from the original Twilight Zone used to be fun and long. Now the only one I can name is Carol Burnett.

Should be no surprise but Robert Duvall playing a young guy it looked exactly like he always does.

Shatner was in an episode and is still alive. I didn't know Burnett was ever in an episode.

Dude is 94 and still doing awesome commercials. Love Will Shat and Raisin Bran!

I’d forgotten there was an earlier version of True Grit. The 2010 version is a fine movie.

Long legacy of fighting for civil rights. Twice he ran in the Democrat primaries hoping to get the nomination. RIP Jesse.

He was in two episodes. Most remember him for the episode in the plane, but his first time was in an episode where he became obsessed with a fortune telling machine. Twilight Zone has a long list of recognizable actors that appeared in The Twilight Zone.

IIRC he won an election in my grammar school. We thought he was related to Michael Jackson.

I didn’t know he had been battling ALS.

RIP

I remember that World Series. Pirates beat my Yankees 4-3. Maz had the game 7 winner. All four Pirate wins were close. The Yankees three wins were by 10+ runs. Crazy series. RIP Bill.

Damn....that was powerful. So beautiful that he recorded that while he could for his daughters.

 

[Punky]

Holy smokes, didn't know he was still alive. I didn't realize he was only 24 when he hit that homer. I'm always taken aback when I hear of people who participated in what seems like ancient history are still around. God rest his soul, seemed like a good man.

For those not clicking on the Rondale Moore thread, he has died of a gunshot wound. Suspected to be self-inflicted.

So sad about Moore. Just a shame!

Sad news about actor Robert Carradine. He committed suicide yesterday at the age of 71 after struggling for years with bipolar disorder. Carradine had a long acting career and was probably best known for Revenge Of The Nerds and Lizzie McGuire. He was the younger brother of actors Keith Carradine and the late David Carradine, who starred as Caine in the 70s show Kung Fu.

Damn....not Lewis Skolnik. Love that damn movie.

Did not know he was the younger brother of Keith and David. RIP Robert.

A memorable role he had, at least for me, was a small guest appearance on ER. He and ER star Anthony Edwards had done Revenge Of The Nerds together, so Edwards had him on his hit show for an episode where he played an escaped psych ward patient posing as a doctor who was developing a new way of running emergency facilities. He spent the entire episode following the doctors and nurses around observing them, advising them on better ways to interact, manage patient flow, and etc. Funny bit.

Man, sad ending. Mental illness is a bitch. As a kid, one of the most violent movies I ever watched was “The Long Riders”. It was a western based on the James Gang. It featured three sets of brothers. Stacy & James Keach played the James Brothers. Then it included the Carradine & Quaid brothers. May have been one of the earliest westerns to earn an R rating. RIP.

Wasn’t he in the movie the Cowboys with John Wayne?
