I didn't know anything about George Burns except that he was very old and kept going. There used to be a lot of jokes about it, like this Larson cartoon from 1991.

There is an old Eminem and Dr. Dre song called Guilty Conscience, released in 1999, where he is referenced. Funny thing is he had already been dead for 3 years, but it was harder to look that up before the internet.

 

"Look at the store clerk, she's older than George Burns".

She was in North by Northwest which is generally considered to be Hitchcock's masterpiece and she won an academy award for On The Waterfront.

 

She is in the top tier of Hollywood nonagenarians

Agree. Still baffles me that She wasn’t pick yet by the committee. Is She dies without being on the list, I’d consider her a miss

Any recent actual photo of her? If not, that's a bad sign.

Not that I know of, sadly.

 

However, I do know that there will be fireworks all across the United States today in her honour. :angel:

No pictures here, but she does tell People magazine her birthday plans.

 

Quote

“I’m looking forward to spending my 100th birthday in Los Angeles with my dear, dear family. Four generations of family members will be gathering together from Los Angeles, Chicago, Santa Barbara and San Francisco," Saint, whose

Oscar win came in 1955 for her role in On the Waterfront alongside Marlon Brando, says.

"I certainly don’t feel 100 years old," the actress adds of her daily life. "I continue to take walks out in the fresh air, like watching baseball — especially the Los Angeles Dodgers, and enjoy time with my family and friends. A good life.”

I kinda feel special that a thread I created is now on the official DL!

 

Then again, this was when I was new to the forum and thought that every famous person should have their own thread :P !

I think the only pick I ever created a thread for is Linda Nolan and she is still with us nearly 8 years later.

I will take the blame yes.She seems a nice enough person though so I'm not mad.Now if Max Clifford was still bedblocking the list after I created his thread in 2017 I might be pissd off.
