    Bloody cancer. Dying at 35 makes it doubly tragic.

    Another French legend, also famous for, amongst many other films, her work with the great Federico Fellini in 8 1/2 and La dolce vita.

    For Un homme et une femme she won a Golden Globe, as well as a BAFTA and was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress. She also received a Best Actress Award in Cannes for her role in Salto nel vuoto.

    A true cinema legend. RIP, Anouk :(

    Major League Baseball legend Willie Mays has died. He was 93.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/18/us/willie-mays-death-baseball-legacy.html



    For non-US readers; Willie, Mickey and the Duke (as the song refers to) are Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider (1926-2011).

    During the 1950s, New York City had three baseball teams: The Yankees, The Giants and The Brooklyn Dodgers. And as fate would have it, the centerfielders for their respective teams; Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider, were among the top players in the sport. Never before or since, has one city been blessed with three immortals of the game at the same time. And while the Giants and Dodgers would leave New York after the 1957 season, that era is often thought of as “The Golden Era” of baseball, not just in New York but in the entire country.

    Terry Cashman’s 1981 song is a love letter to a time when baseball truly was the national pastime.

    From (L to R): Snider (4), Mays (24), Mantle (7) along with Yankees legend Joe DiMaggio (5) walking out together at an old-timer’s game in 1977 at Shea Stadium.

    At-least four people that I had great respect and admiration for have passed away in the past two weeks. It is, yet another sign, that time marches on and none of us can live forever.

    RIP.

    The Kaufman IOTBS is my favourite of the Jack Finney adaptations. Sutherland plays a pivotal part in that. He was also tremendous in Don't Look Now. I will miss him.

    Such a great film I will watch my Arrow Bluray of IOTBS tonight in tribute, I also have Don't Look Now a very ominous and eerie film. Klute was also a film way ahead of its time.

    R.I.P. Donald Sutherland, one of my favourite actors. Always worth watching, from 'Klute', to 'MASH', 'Dont Look Now!', 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers', his scene stealing turn in 'Kelly's Heroes', 'Eye of the Needle', 'The First Great Train Robbery', and the little seen Canadian thriller 'The Disappearance', and lots more! A sad loss to the Film world!

    The Great Train Robbery

    Great scene, there's a funnier one earlier on, when Connerys character first tells him about the robbery! Sutherland is hilarious!

    Sad to hear of the death of Donald Sutherland. He even voiced the "Brain" computer in Billion Dollar Brain (1967).

    Classic moment from Disclosure. Okay, the subject matter of the film is serious, but this scene is so random!

    I quite like that film tbh, though I believe it isn't generally well-regarded...

    He was the best thing about Kelly’s Heroes. Oddball is such an oddball character!! Him and Gavin MacLeod always going at each other was hilarious!!

    The other role that I’ll always remember him for is his sadistic prison warden Drumgoole (love that name!!) in Sly Stallone’s most underrated movie LOCK UP!
