Pdoggg Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Olivia DeHavilland, Gone With he Wind's last surviving cast member passed away at the ripe old age of 104. She played the role of Melanie. The film has been criticised for the glorification of the Confederacy as well as the legitimisation of marital rape by showing Scarlett with a wonderful afterglow the morning after a proper pounding aka known as forcible rape. Here Rhett speaks the famous line, "Frankly Scarlett, I don't give a flying fuck". Quote Link to comment

xyzzy Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Maybe my all time favorite guitarist as he had a style all his own. I mostly consider VH Hard Rock and maybe less than really hard at times after Sammy joined the band. I was trying to post a link to Eruption I'll try once more. The short version see youtube for more. Not sure how many don't know about Eddie and Beat It with MJ . 2 Quote Link to comment
rxpharm Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Sean Connery has passed away at the age of 90 Quote LONDON — Scottish actor Sean Connery, the first actor to play James Bond on film and for many fans the best, has died. He was 90. Bond producers EON Productions confirmed his death, first reported by the BBC. Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said they were “devastated by the news.” “He was and shall always be remembered as the original James Bond whose indelible entrance into cinema history began when he announced those unforgettable words — ‘The name’s Bond... James Bond,'” they said in a statement. The producers said Connery's “gritty and witty portrayal of the sexy and charismatic secret agent” was largely responsible for the success of the series. Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she was “heartbroken” at the news. “Our nation today mourns one of her best loved sons," she said. In a varied career, Connery played James Bond seven times, starting with “Dr. No” in 1962. His portrayal defined the suave secret agent for a generation of fans. He also had major roles in films including “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,” “Highlander” and “The Hunt for Red October.” He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2000 for services to film drama. The Associated Press He was definitely my favorite James Bond actor. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
