RIP, Spartacus

Post by Mikey »

Tony Curtis - perhaps the only man who could pull off a Roman gladiator and a Cossack prince, both with a Brooklyn accent - passed away Wednesday night due to a cardiac arrest. He was 85.

Ah, Danny Wilde, you shall be missed.

There goes another classic tough guy. We're running out of them.
They say that in the Army,
the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,
and walk like Frankenstein.

As iconic as that role was, as well as Some Like It Hot, I will always remember him as Yul Brynner's son. As odd as that onscreen pairing sounds, they both made it work unbelievably well.
