Re: Passages
Lots of bad guy roles in there! He is also in the astonishing In The Heat of the Night-esque racial tensions drama ...tick ...tick... tick.... Although I have to admit that I really know him the best for his musically-inclined assassin in The Naked Gun 2 1/2!FrauBlucher wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 9:31 pmAnthony James...Unforgiven and In the Heat of the Night

I read from a FB post by Howard S. Berger that character actor Dan van Husen passed away. I could not find any articles of his passing as of yet.

Re: Passages
environmental artist Christo, dead at 84
If memory serves he did New York about 15 years ago. I was really fortunate to see it in person. The pictures never did the draping work justice.
It’s as good a time as any to recommend Five Films About Christo and Jeanne-Claude by the Maysles brothers.

Re: Passages
No online obituaries yet that I can find, but John B. Murray (director of The Naked Bunyip and one segment of Libido, producer of Lonely Hearts and We of the Never Never) has passed away. A pioneer in the 1970s revival of Australian cinema. Born in 1931 so he was 88 or 89.
I had a brief pleasant email correspondence with him, shortly after I'd reviewed the DVD of Libido.
ETA: An obituary here, and he was 88.

Re: Passages
What an incredible talent. Scuba Duba and Steambath are two of the finest, funniest American plays of the last 50 years.
I implore you to watch the PBS shot-on-video production of Steambath.

Re: Passages
David E. Gluck, the previously anonymous performer of a, erm... somewhat unorthodox musical number in John Waters' Pink Flamingos (and if you've seen the film - and possibly even if you haven't - you'll know exactly what I'm talking about).
Waters kept Gluck's identity secret for 48 years - presumably not hard to do since it wasn't his face you were looking at - but since his passing his widow has granted permission for his indelible contribution to film culture to be revealed.
