Susan Tyrrell, an actress whose willfully erratic career included an Oscar-nominated turn in the 1972 John Huston film
"Fat City," died 2012. She was 67.

I was watching TV yesterday and scanned the upcoming movie schedule for TCM. The next movie was Fat City with Stacy Keach, Jeff Bridges and Susan Tyrrell. She was great in this sad movie. Stacy Keach played a washed up boxer and Susan Tyrrell a bar girl.

Grew up watching this guy on TV and listening to some music and Jokes he did, funny guy he will be missed.

 

[nasa1974]

Enjoyed his characters as well. The Andy Griffith Show was a commen sense show. Nothing like that today.

 

[James48843]

A funny guy, even before he showed up in Mayberry. He was a stand-up comedian in the 1950's.

That's 2 big ones in a row in the curse of the 3...who will be next?

I'm certainly not wishing it on anyone, but Kirk Douglas and Eli Wallach are both well into their 90s... I actually just saw RED (Borgnine) and WALL STREET 2 (Wallach) this year, and was thinking it would be great to get those guys together one last time. Maybe Eastwood directing!

We have lost another hero and role model.

SALLY RIDE (1951 - 2012): Astronaut and physicist Sally Ride died on July 23rd following a 17-month battle with cancer. Ride, who became the first American women in space in 1983 when she orbited Earth onboard space shuttle Challenger, was known for her courage, intelligence, and dedication to young scientists, especially girls. We add our condolences to those of NASA and many others over the loss of a true American original.
