And to update the list.

Robertson was the 15th oldest living Academy Award nominated actor. His death moves Glynis Johns into his spot and brings in Colette Marchand (86.37) to the list in the 25th spot. Luis Rainer, who is apparently immortal at now more than 101.5 years old remains the oldest.

Robertson was the 6th oldest living Academy Award nominated actor. His death moves Eva Marie Saint into his spot and brings in Shirley Jones (77.45 years old) to the list in the 25th spot. Luis Rainer is also the leader in this category.

Am I missing something here?

Well, according to this list, Robertson would have been the fifth oldest living Academy award winner (his DOB was 9/9/23). However, that list appears to only include leading actor/acrtress recipients (Eva Maria Saint won the award for Supporting Actress for On the Waterfront).

I guess we'll just have to wait for Alex...

Second one should have said "6th oldest living Academy Award winning actor.

Yes, my list is both lead and supporting actor noms/wins. So for Oldest Living Winners, it was:

Luise Rainer (Lead)
Olivia de Havilland (Lead)
Ernest Borgnine (Lead)
Celeste Holm (Supporting)
Joan Fontaine (Lead)
Cliff Robertson (Lead)
Eva Marie Saint (Supporting)

A sad farewell to another of the handsome middle aged men of my childhood.

And while my Alan in a 1979 high school production of "Picnic" is probably the definitive interpretation, I have to admit he did a decent job in the film.
