Also Clifton James (b. 1921) best known for playing redneck sheriff J.W. Pepper in the James Bond films Live and Let Die & The Man With The Golden Gun. Though I'm sure he's been mentioned countless times already (but I can't be arsed to check) B-Movie king Roger Corman (b. 1926) is also one to watch, still producing as of last year.
