Darryl Hickman, actor infantil de los años 30' y 40'. Aparece en unos cuantos títulos de relumbrón de esa época. Tenía 92 años y en los años 80 se dedicó a doblajes de animación para TV.

Último superviviente de ralatos del calibre de "Las uvas de la ira" (1940, John Ford), junto a Henry Fonda; "La ciudad de los muchachos" (1941, Norman Taurog), junto a Spencer Tracy y Mickey Rooney; "La llama sagrada" (1942, George Cukor), junto a Tracy y Katherine Hepburn; o "Que el cielo la juzgue" (1945, John M. Stahl), donde es testigo del inusual viraje de la bella Gene Tierney en derivas destructivas.

Trabajó con las más grandes estrellas de la época: Merle Oberon, Ray Milland, Alan Ladd, Veronica Lake, Robert Taylor, Robert Ryan, Kirk Douglas, Barbara Stanwyck.... y con otros intérpretes que empezaron de niños en el medio: los ya fallecidos Dean Stockwell o Jane Withers.



Junto a Gene Tierney en "Que el cielo la juzgue"

Hace poco Arnold, ha publicado una despedida para Albert S. Ruddy. , No he visto comunicado oficial, pero supongo que si lo hace público es por que así será...

En paz descanse.

Palabras de Arnold Schwarzenegger;

Al Ruddy was a Hollywood legend. He was an absolute icon and a visionary who made some of the best movies of all time.
That’s the Al Ruddy everyone knows. I want to talk about the Al Ruddy I know. I met him more than 40 years ago, when he was already an icon and I was just starting my film career.
He became a dear friend and a mentor. He was always there to give me advice and lead me in the right direction. People like Al are why I refuse to be called a self-made man. Where would I be without him? My life wouldn’t be what it is without fantastic people like him who have been there every step of the way.
I was inspired by how he worked his ass off while always being there for his family. Al showed you really can have everything. He loved his family, and they loved him.
He also might have been one of the world’s greatest storytellers. Whether he was talking about being threatened by real mafia heavy hitters while he was making the Godfather or telling a story about his kids, it didn’t matter. When Al talked, everyone listened. Everyone was on the edge of their seat. And by the end, everyone was laughing, because he had the best sense of humor. You should have seen the hilarious toast he gave at my wedding - people couldn’t breathe because they were laughing so hard.
Every time you watch Hogan’s Heroes or the Godfather or Million Dollar Baby or any of the many projects he entertained us with, take a minute to remember Al Ruddy.
I know I will never forget him. I will miss him dearly, but Al will always be with me. I am filled with gratitude that I had the opportunity to get to know such a great man with such a big heart.
My thoughts are with his family.

Descansen en paz

Muere Tom Bower, actor de 'Los Walton' o 'La jungla 2: Alerta roja', a los 86 años

Ayer falleció la cantante, modelo y actriz francesa Francoise Hardy a los 80 años y después de una larga lucha contra una enfermedad terminal.

Una de las grandes e importantes artistas musicales del país galo y Musa de los más grandes diseñadores y artistas de la época e icono pop y cultural de la Francia de los 60s y 70s, y amor imposible del cantante y compositor Bob Dylan, destacó sobre todo como cantante con su suave, melancolía y melodiosa voz. Pero también intervino como actriz en películas como "Second chance", "gran prix " o "que tal Pussycat"?.

Descanse en paz.
