Wow, lots of deaths of note (to me) recently. Certainly Arthur Penn. Gloria Stewart's passing almost led me to watch Titanic that night. Almost.
I'm probably the only one who has a big thing for one of Eddie Fisher's small hits, Dungaree Doll, but I was singing it all day the day he passed.
And Tony Curtis! Waaaaaaaaaa. I demand a screening of The Great Race at Casa Chihuahua! So many great roles. Wasn't he in Sparticus, or some other film or films where he played some Roman slave boy? Or was that several films? Um, lemme see, Harry Houdini, Cary Grant Knock-Off in Some Like It Hot, and of course, the sparkle-toothed Great Leslie!
R.I.P. all.
