Damn. Just saw TCM's year-end memorial to show business personalities who had died. Some I don't remember hearing about :

Michael Gough - Known to younger people from Tim Burton's films, to people of mine and my parents' generation as (usually) a villain in English movies and television series.

William Campbell - Trelane, the Squire of Gothos -- and other roles that required someone who could be handsome, glib, and not exactly honorable.

James Arness - Marshall Dillon rode into the sunset this year. (I can't remember if I heard about it.)

Jane Russell - I recognize the name, and may have seen some of her movies.

Anne Francis - Forbidden Planet and the series Honey West.

It was quite a list, including screenwriters and producers. All the people who can actually act are dropping dead!

At least through their work, they'll never be forgotten!

And being replaced, it often seems, by far too many reality TV personalities!

I recognize some of the names. I remember how sad I was when Bob Hope died. But as KT said, they will all be remembered in their films.

Jane Russell - co-starred with Marilyn Munroe in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", and best known for her role in "The Outlaw" that was censored - Howard Hughes had designed a bra to show off her bust to the best effect, and it showed it off a little too well.

The Golden Years of Hollywood stars are slowly leaving us, one by one. It is fortunate that their films still exist.
