Must have been sudden.

Appeared at a Wizard of Oz festival last month and looked fine.

He'd had cancer for several years and kept it private.

Paul Reubens, Fred Willard, Gerald Sinstadt - the past few years have been pretty hard on those who enjoy a leisurely chug at the flicks.

Aye, perhaps a fitting tribute at Reubens' funeral would be a mass chug in the back seats. A kind of mass cumming to grief, or summat!

Well, you learn something new every day, the things you don't spot.

 

Paul Reubens plays Elton John's manager John Reid in the video for This Train Don't Stop There Anymore, alongside - yes, that is Justin Timberlake playing Elton:

What does she have to do with Hollywood?

It was either this category or 'Reality TV' or the Deaths of 2023. HGTV is television, but I suppose Hollywood is stretching it a bit. Maybe 'Presenters' would've been better, now that I think of it.

The Exorcist was released 50 years ago this Boxing Day.

The director, the cinematographer and two of the cast members have died this year.

Burstyn (91), Winn (80), Blair (64) and Mitchell (probably in her 80s) are the last four credited cast members still living. One of the editors, Bud S. Smith is still with us, despite surviving cancer. Another, Norman Gay, may still be alive but I can't find any info on him.

Burstyn seems to be in great health, and is reprising her role of Chris MacNeil in the director sequel to The Exorcist, due for release in October!

The film's primary editor was Bud S. Smith (born 1935), who for some reason isn't listed on the Wikipedia infobox. Smith and Friedkin also worked together on Sorcerer and To Live and Die in L.A.

 

Bud is in relatively good health, but part of his tongue was removed as a result of cancer a few years back.

Smith was born in 1935 (date uncertain), and survived a serious battle with tongue cancer. 

He isn't listed on IMDb either strangely, but I see he was nominated for an Oscar for it. Odd.

Added.

Paul Bateson (wiki) had a small part. Convicted murderer and supected serial killer, said to have died in 2012, but nothing conclusive.
