A little known fact about Sidney Poitier is that he served as the Bahamas ambassador to Japan from 1997-2007. He lived in the US during that entire period, so maybe he was a pioneer in Zoom meetings.A sad loss indeed, though to be honest I thought he died years ago already
It was called Mandela effect, now we have the Poitier effect, soon becoming the Belafonte effect.A sad loss indeed, though to be honest I thought he died years ago already
A great sound, from the abyss of more than half a century ago!Rock and roll icon Ronnie Spector has left us.
For example, in this picture in the center above, you can see a small red-haired boy writing the name "Karin" into the sand. 
Her roles in movies went almost unnoticed. I recall her specifically from 'Dark of the Sun' (1968), a rather violent movie.
I really liked him in "The Wild Geese".
Me too, but Hardy Krüger himself once said in an interview which was broadcast in Germany some years later that this movie which was shown in the cinemas of the world was not the one about which he read in the script / screenplay. He found the finished movie "too cynical" because he himself survived real war scenes at his real age of 16 (!) in WW II and he even said he would not have had taken part in this movie if he had known how it was reduced and cut for the cinemas at the taste of that time.
He was superb in The Flight of the Phoenix. He was also good in a couple of films made in the UK in the late '50, marking a shift away from anti-German sentiment still surviving from WWII, where he was the sympathetic character: The One That Got Away (1957) and Bachelor of Hearts (1958).
I definitely remember Hardy Kruger. Sorry to hear he's past away. He did an outstanding job in Flight of the Phoenix.
Me too lucky to meet him once a real nice guy nothing to much trouble but who for get his performance in the rocky horror show a legend
So did I (and just about everyone!!!). Rest in peace...
