George "The Animal" Steele. So great in Tim Burton's best movie, Ed Wood.

As evil as he looked and an expert at making grotesque faces, he always visited The Hospital for Sick Children when he was in Toronto and put smiles on hundreds of faces that otherwise did not have a lot to cheer about while admitted to hospital.
I missed that Spielberg's mom, Leah Adler, died last week at 97. Though I've never met a Spielberg movie I've liked, my own recently passed mother did like on occasion to go to her kosher restaurant in the Pico/Robertson area of LA--The Milky Way. Though she certainly didn't need to work, Leah would often be found there running the place.

I am so sorry to hear that! I liked most of his work. I think Tresspass with him and William Sadler was an excellent movie and also enjoyed One False Move very much. Frown


I forgot we consolidated. Red Face

I loved Chet and Hudson! RIP.

Very sad.

For those of us that grew up in the 80s, his roles in Weird Science and Aliens are unforgettable.

I really enjoyed his performances in One False Move, Tombstone and A Simple Plan.

RIP.

A terrific singer who worked with Jackson Browne, Little Feat, James Taylor and numerous others. She was a fixture in James Taylor's touring band for many years. And she had a few very well received solo albums in the 70s.

She sings the harmony parts on one of my favourite Little Feat songs, Long Distance Love.

Heart attack at age 64.
