He will always be brilliant in movies like "cat on a hot tin roof". I could watch that movie over and over...;)

That was an actor. I was eating in a deli in NYC years ago. He was there with a friend. Of cource a lot of people recognized him, and went up to his table to talk to him. He was polite to everybody.

Some people I should say most people want to be left alone while they are eating. He was just very nice to everyone he had mucho class.

see I didn't realize that he was actually working lately. Road to Perdition was the last thing I recall involving him and I thought it was very good.

That is so sad. Alot of the actors of today cant hold a candle to those of old. Hes a class act in every sense of the word.

That's sad...what they should think of when hearing his name is the Sockarooni pasta sauce. That ******** is the bomb.

On the flipside, he was a pretty good humanitarian and alot of the proceeds, if not all, of those products were donated to charity ( if im not mistaken)

Just as long as he keeps making his salad dressing and popcorn I'll be happy.
