I do as well. I hate postmortem hypocrisy. If someone was a bitch or a dick while they were alive, things don't change just because they died.

That said, I can separate the man from his politics. I loved Charlton Heston, mainly because of his films. Never knew the man personally, but he doesn't sound horrible- he had his beliefs and he was free to express them.

Someone better make sure Regan and Pope JP are still dead.

As a side note, we paid tribute to "Moses" at our Sedar. Our story of Passover involved guns this year. And hockey. But mostly guns. and hockey.

I think often times death causes reexamination of accomplishments in a more complete way. For example, Nixon was hailed postmortem as a foreign policy genius regardless of Watergate.

How sad, then - to have such lofty accomplishments overshadowed by such horrible crimes. Sorry, Scaeagles- but he really was a Dick.

And of course, we had a healthy dose of Chuck Heston at ours. Love me some Moses.


(And how am I ever going to re-edit the Ten Commandments Greatest Hits DVD to include Anne Baxter's immortal "Moses, Moses, Mosssesss" by next year??? Oi.)

You used it as an insult:

His politics were honorable in a industry overwhelmed by the activist left.
Then again, maybe you simply meant that Heston's politics were even more honorable than the "activist left". But I doubt it.

We mentioned Heston at our Seder too, of course, complete with awful impersonation.
