 She is still alive according to wiki........?

In the side panel she's dead. Matter of time, I don't edit Wiki, must be someone here who does.

That's a shame. I'll always associate him Fassbinder and while I didn't like all their collaborations I did enjoy many others.

Indeed a shame. I had a feeling he was dying soon, as he left Hollywood and returned to Berlin not quite long ago. Then he received a couple of lifetime achievement awards here. I wasn't brave enough to pick him though.

I'm shoehorning this in here.

 

2016 will be the 40th anniversary of The Omen, so in honour of this event and the fact I haven't done a list for ages (I know, you've missed them too), I thought I'd list the survivors of the original film and the two sequels. Are the omens good for these possibilities? Who will survive? All info taken from IMDB/Wiki, usual disclaimers apply and any further information as usual appreciated.

:o Oh wow, that's two actors, from the movie Tombstone, in one year. Quite a fitting name, for that movie.

This really sucks.  He was just phenomenal in Deadwood, one of the best TV shows ever.

Wiki has Roger Smith dead.

"Posted February 2, 2015 · Report post

After finding out about Anita Ekberg's death just a few minutes ago, I thought of another Swedish-American actress; Ann-Margret. No, not suggesting that she should be considered but instead her husband Roger Smith. He was famous for his role in the television detective series 77 Sunset Strip with Efrem Zimbalist Junior.

 

In the 1960s, he was forced to quit acting due to things like "blood clot in the brain" and

"myasthenia gravis." Now, obviously it wasn't life-threathenig since he has managed to stay alive at age 82...but this is not the kind of guy who'll turn 90 either. He is "wheelchaired" nowadays and has Parkinson's disease. I see that no one has picked him for this year's DDP; perhaps a contender for 2016 instead?

By the way, impressive to see a Hollywood marriage that's lasted for 47 years!"

^^ Ah, now it doesn't have him dead. Looks like he might have though, there's reports elsewhere though nothing concrete.
