Steve 481 Posted June 20 I really enjoyed watching Donald Sutherland play the role of Adam Czerniakow in the 2001 TV movie Uprising (set in the Warsaw Ghetto during WW2). RIP Donald, you were a truly great actor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last year's list was even older on average and nearly tied the hit record. This one has plenty of younger "risks" like Bugner, Brokaw, Stone, Walters, etc. who have just failed to die so far. If they had filled it up with more random old people they'd probably have lucked into 4-5 hits by now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Grimace 350 Posted June 21 The quote below by Donald Sutherland is from this BBC article. At the time, he said he had no plans to retire from acting. "It's a passionate endeavour. Retirement for actors is spelt 'DEATH'." he said. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a lot of those cases it's just someone posts the intro in their thread and then a couple of years later out of the blue they die. Honestly, it's more interesting when they have a history or visibly in decline. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
