There's a Peace Protester who marches up and down the main street in my town during Rush Hour with a sign that says "Nobody should Ever Die".
There was new version of the Twilight Zone in which this idea was explored. (Jason Alexander was the Angel of Death) Some people were brought into the emergency room who had been charred in a fire and were still screaming because they could not die. Very eerie!

Death Takes a Holiday explored this, as did a Lionel Barrymore film from 1939 called On Borrowed Time. Obviously, they weren't as graphic, but the latter was interesting (I didn't see the former, nor do I have any interest in its remake--Meet Joe Black).

Okay people, so he may have been a little bit of a lefty loon as far as politics is concerned, but he doesn't deserve to be chewed out for it on the day of his unfortunate passing. This isn't Arafat we're talking about here. He wasn't an evil man after all, just misguided. Don't whitewash him, but try to be compassionate.

Let's give him and his family the day off from our criticism. Let's not turn this into the same kind of vile-"it's about time"-nastiness that the DU pricks perpetrated on the day of the death of the (truly great)Ronald Reagan.

Here's to one of the greatest actors ever to grace the Silver Screen. His rough, raw, amazing performances for Elia Kazan in the 50's brought movie drama to a whole new level. The character of Fletcher Christian in "The Bounty" was undoubtably immortalized by the presence of Brando in the role (besting the 30's version). His portrayal of Don Vito Corleone in the "Godfather" is simply one of the most memorable, most imitated, and best performances in History. Another highlight was the heartbreak and recklessness he brought to the infamous (yet brilliant) "Last Tango in Paris".

As a film fanatic, he made me an offer I couldn't refuse.
