I liked him in The Marriage of Maria Braun. I wonder how many male Fassbinder actors are still around. There're a lot of premature deaths among the cast of his films. This question got my interest, I've seen several of Fassbinder's works. I tallied the following, from his first three films, from Wikepedia (insert veracity warning here): Love Is Colder Than Death Ulli Lommel (alive) Hanna Schygulla (alive) Rainer Werner Fassbinder (died 1982) Hans Hirschmüller (alive) Katrin Schaake (alive) Peter Berling (alive) Hannes Gromball (alive) Gisela Otto (unknown) Ingrid Caven (alive) Ursula Strätz (unknown) Irm Hermann (alive) Les Olvides (unknown) Wil Rabenbauer (died 2007) Peter Moland (unknown) Anastassios Karalas (unknown) Rudolf Waldemar Brem (died 2016) Yaak Karsunke (alive) Monika Stadler (unknown) Kurt Raab (died 1988) Thomas Hill (unknown) Liz Söllner (unknown) Howard Gaines (unknown) Franz Maron (unknown) Gottfried Hüngsberg (alive) Wolfgang Gmoch (unknown) KatzelmacherHanna Schygulla (alive) Lilith Ungerer (died 2000) Rudolf Waldemar Brem (died 2016) Elga Sorbas (alive) Doris Mattes (unknown) Irm Hermann (alive) Peter Moland (unknown) Hans Hirschmüller (alive) Rainer Werner Fassbinder (died 1982) Harry Baer (alive) Hannes Gromball (alive) Katrin Schaake (alive) Gods of the PlagueHanna Schygulla (alive) Margarethe von Trotta (alive) Harry Baer (alive) Günther Kaufmann (died 2012) Carla Egerer (alive) Ingrid Caven (alive) Jan George (alive) Lilo Pempeit (died 1993) Marian Seidowsky (unknown) Yaak Karsunke (alive) Micha Cochina (unknown) Hannes Gromball (alive) Lilith Ungerer (died 2000) Katrin Schaake (alive) Rainer Werner Fassbinder (died 1982) David Morgan (unknown) Thomas Schieder (unknown) Kurt Raab (died 1988) Irm Hermann (alive) Peter Moland (unknown) Doris Mattes (unknown) Eva Madelung (unknown) Ursula Strätz (unknown) Then I got bored. regards, Hein Rudolf Waldemar Brem died of lung cancer on March 17, 2016. I never heard of him. Maybe this list should better be moved to the foreign-topic...

Nice chartrun on Billboard Top 200 : 4 - 8 - 10 - 6 Fourth straight week on the Top Christian album chart Country album chart: 1 - 2 - 2 - ?

Dear RA, maybe you have forgotten my points for Joey Feek... Regards, Book

Ok, me thinks: - Zsa Zsa Gabor - Joao Havelange - Bhumibol Adulyadej - Lord Carrington - Vera Lynn - Desmond Tutu - Glen Campbell - Billy Graham - Murray Walker - Kirk Douglas Some wishin' and hopin'...

No. I suggest her for 2016.

Another father and son couple: Kirk and Michael Douglas. Both alive but nominated.

Zsa Zsa again.

It doesn't feel right to be a little pleased about her death in relation to big points, being my joker, a nice move on the DDP... This is the sad side of deadpooling... but that's also the game...

Updated, improved formating and brought forward. Jaqcues Rivette also needs to be crossed off sadly. You can also cross off Ruth Leuwerik. She died in January. And you got Fernanda Montenegro two times on your list.

March 12

I rarely watch German tv these days, but I recognise his face from when I did. Sad indeed. Yes, he was able to make intelligent television for children, explaining various phenomena of science and nature very clear and child-friendly - and funny, as his surname was. funny = lustig

Peter Lustig died at 78. He was a German television presenter and author of children's books who has become especially well known as leading actor in the weekly children's television show "Löwenzahn". Very sad. http://www.sueddeutsche.de/medien/loewenzahn-moderator-peter-lustig-ist-tot-1.2878080

The Commitments - absolutely one of my all time favorite movies forever and ever!

I saw The B-52s twice and they were absolutely brilliant!!! My favorite band ever ever ever and even forever!!!

One of the most lovely and adorable little old Lady-actresses has died: Dorothea Walda, 84 http://www.rp-online.de/nrw/staedte/wuelfrath/dorothea-walda-eine-renitente-alte-dame-mit-herz-und-seele-aid-1.5779959

Zsa Zsa. This time for sure!

Still alive? Booo!

Congratulations!

Ooooohh. They does seem to be a bit of a rumour cloud around Janet at the moment. How many of their kids will Joe and Katherine outlive? Another nice poll.

Janet Jackson. Not a big loss imo.
