Title: TCM REMEMBERS 2008
Post by: Allhallowsday on December 26, 2008, 02:29:59 PM
 :bluesad: TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES does a great job at the end of every year with their tribute to film personalities that have passed in the year, now 2008:

I was struck by ROY SCHEIDER; PAUL NEWMAN at the end is sobering.  Poignant, remarkably subtle, certainly thoughtful: others that struck me were GEORGE CARLIN, PAUL SCOFIELD, LOIS NETTLETON, HARVEY KORMANSUZANNE PLESHETTE, :bluesad:  Only ESTELLE REINER is given a line (her classic from WHEN HARRY MET SALLY - I had to pause the video to get her name...) The young people, LEDGER, RENFRO!  Too many others to name... And familiar faces with names I didn't really know, or never knew, and names I knew with unfamiliar faces.   :bluesad:   And FORREST J. ACKERMAN, NINA FOCH, BERNIE MAC...

The song TCM used is by JOE HENRY off 2007's CiviliansHAPPY NEW YEAR to all, and remember and treasure.
