I am very disappointed that Ebert would tweet something like that. Especially since the guy had only been dead for hours. I always liked Ebert but am very disgusted by him at the moment.

When I saw the headline I was expecting it to be one of the other stars. Ryan always seemed like the mellow one. I feel for his family and friends at this sad time.

Peter Falk, entirely remembered for Columbo but most won't realize he was twice-nominated for an Academy Award.

To me, he'll always be Max from The Great Race.

I love that movie!

I was sad to hear that he had passed.

And, to me, besides Columbo, he's best remembered for "Wings of Desire".

And I've always had a hard time thinking of Carroll O'Connor as anything other than a military man in a supporting role.

I just saw Carol O'Conner last night as a British Officer in an episode of Time Tunnel. It was hard to envision him yelling meathead.

I may have to pull out Wings of Desire this weekend. One of my favorites, especially so for Peter Falk

Sorry folks, I'm late, but then again, so's Wally Boag!
*Boom, Tish!*

I've been avoiding this thread (for various reasons) but my cheese is extra sad to hear of Wally's passing. I have actually been listening to a lot of the DL recordings off the collectors CD set and there's a couple of Golden Horseshoe versions I've been listening to.

As a tribute to Mr. Boag, I would like to sing one of his favourite songs - it's a little number entitled "The girl next door lived the life of a dog, so I called her [r]over"
