Wmcmanus Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 RIP. Always thought he was great in every role he played. As Pars said, droll. Also one of those actors who was quite good at expressing himself just with his eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agile_one Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Friday Night in San Francisco has always been one of my favorite pure guitar albums of all time. Will play some cuts and raise a glass to Paco this evening. Should get inspired, and listen to some flamenco as well. RIP, Paco. Only 66 y.o.

blessingx Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) There's an argument we lost the greatest living director today, Alain Resnais, still making films (and winning awards) at 91. Hiroshima Mon Amour, probably more than any film, colors what I think narrative film can achieve. No great obits yet, but I'll post when I see one. Instead a video summary of HMA...http://youtu.be/naFUgAHZusEHere's one: http://thedissolve.com/news/1616-alain-resnais-1922-2014/?utm_content=buffera38a5&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer And another (especially worth a read for fans of Inception): http://moviemorlocks.com/2014/03/03/alain-resnais-gone-home-to-marienbad/ Edited March 3, 2014 by blessingx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmcmanus Posted March 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) David Brenner died today. He was 78. Can't say I ever "got" the fascination with his humor because most of his jokes were painfully obvious and thus not particularly funny, but he seemed like a nice enough guy. Friggin' cancer.

Kinzler not built model planes as a boy, had he not visited the post office as a youth and had he not, as a grown man, purchased four fishing rods at $12.95 apiece, Skylab — the United States’ $2.5 billion space station — would very likely have been forfeit."http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/03/15/us/jack-kinzler-skylabs-savior-dies-at-94.html?_r=0&referrer= 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absorbine_Sr Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM IGGY: My dear friend Scott Asheton passed away last night. Scott was a great artist, I have never heard anyone play the drums with more meaning than Scott Asheton. He was like my brother. He and Ron have left a huge legacy to the world. The Asheton's have always been and continue to be a second family to me. My thoughts are with his sister Kathy, his wife Liz and his daughter Leanna, who was the light of his life.

skullguise Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Bummer on Asheton....I was glad to see the Asheton's reunite with Iggy. Even when Ron died, it was good to see them still going. And RIP Jack Kinzler; what an interesting story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
