Two icons, forever monumentalized in the stones of time; glamorous diamonds flickering eternally in Hollywood's night sky.
I did think that as soon as I read my post again, probably not, but still a great actor lost this year.
Exactly my thoughts, @Kerim. People are a lot braver behind a keyboard and monitor than they are if you met them down a dark alley. Tells you all you need to know about these cowardly trolls really.

I watched it last weekend. Lauren Bacall, a beauty like we don't see often anymore.
Robin Williams' true role was Pagliacci, the sad, tragic clown who was the only one not laughing.
I thought of that thing in Watchmen:
Personally I don't think it's lack of bravery, but rather lack of brains. I don't think one needs to be brave to act or not to act like a heartless bastard.
Well yes, lack of grace and lack of wit and empathy are factors too. Gaining fame though notoriety is a likely motive for these sad little individuals that we call trolls.
Credit to Pierce for that tribute!

And here is a bit in that article that made me smile:
One legendary Robin Williams episode goes like this: On one of his promotion tours, he was driven around Tokyo for a week by the same chauffeur. At the end of his stay, he presented the man with a pair of Louis Vuitton leather driving gloves because he loved the fact that “all the drivers in Tokyo wear white gloves. I can’t imagine anyone in the U.S. doing such a thing. You people live in an amazing country!”
The chauffeur was so moved by Williams’ gesture that he wept.
Iris Rose who was a production assistant and unit manager from 1981 until 2008's Quantum Of Solace and executive producer Tom Pevsner who worked on six Bond movies in all has also sadly passed away. Their contributions to the Bond series are something I'm sure we can all be thankful for.
May they rest in peace.
Sad news indeed.
Do you have many found memories of them @ColonelSun?
I believe his name can be spot on one of Boris' computers in GE.
