Going through Stanton's filmography. Hot damn, he was in more than I thought. I've seen him in: Pork Chop Hill - 1959 - U.S. Soldier with BAR, Uncredited The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - 1960 - Slave Catcher, Credited as Dean Stanton How the West Was Won 1962 - Gant Henchman, Uncredited In the Heat of the Night 1967 - Police officer, Credited as Dean Stanton Cool Hand Luke - 1967 - Tramp, Credited as Dean Stanton Kelly's Heroes - 1970 - Willard, Credited as Dean Stanton The Godfather Part II - 1974 - FBI Agent Alien - 1979 - Brett Escape from New York - 1981 - Harold "Brain" Hellman Red Dawn - 1984 - Tom Eckert Down Periscope - 1996 - Howard A Civil Action - 1998 - Land Watcher, Uncredited The Green Mile - 1999 - Toot-Toot Anger Management - 2003 - Blind Man, Uncredited The Avengers - 2012 - Security Guard The Last Stand - 2013 - Farmer Parsons Uncredited I watched this man in movies from 7 different decades. Yikes. I just popped into the thread to make sure someone had given Tom Petty a mention but saw your post which doesn't mention "Paris, Texas" - my favourite film, with the possible exception of "Wings of Desire" (both directed by Wim Wenders). "Paris, Texas" is notable in this thread as it was written by Sam Shepard, who we also lost recently. If you haven't seen it, you've missed a genuine treat. It is visually breathtaking, shot by the incomparable Robby Muller, and also of interest to anyone who has ever heard and enjoyed "The Joshua Tree" by U2 or their song "Walk to the Water", with the lyric "He said he was an artist, but he really painted billboards" clearly referencing Dean Stockwell's character. If you've ever felt like someone disconnected from or at odds with the real world, Harry Dean Stanton's performance is likely to completely floor you and then stay with you forever, along with the image of Nastassja Kinski looking over her shoulder. It should probably also be acknowledged that people with a disposition towards suicidal intent should approach with caution - both Kurt Cobain and Elliot Smith listed it as their favourite film. On a lighter note, I can't believe it's 13 years since his small cameo in "Two and a Half Men" - he really did have a good innings. And that's why I like your style, Grunt: "Paris, Texas" was the one movie for which he absolutely deserved an Oscar. But they were probably so used to him playing second hand roles that they could not believe the diamond under their eyes. P.S. As for Tom Petty: I love him

Gord Downie is going to be missed. Also John Dunsworth, alias Mr Lahey from Trailer Park Boys died yesterday. Month late, but I feel bad for Canadians on the top one. As I understand it (and I admit to having never heard of the man until he was dead,) he is/was a cultural icon for Canada, and many Canadian celebrities, actors, etc. tweeted their sadness at it. Meanwhile, down south of the border, we were like "Who tf is that guy? He was Canadian? Ooh, sure was a wicked lotta moose, eh! Tee hee, I love Canadians, eh, their accent is so weird, eh!" Condolences on your countries loss. I've come to appreciate Canada and Canadians more and more over the last year as I traveled through the country.

Now all of the original membership of Motorhead has passed on...there goes my childhood. I remember listing to one of their gigs at the age of 21 (in the early 80's). I saw the roadies setting up the towers of speakers earlier in the day, and though I didn't attend (working a few buildings distant from the venue) it was loud enough for me to listen to easily.

Found this fan tribute video from 2011
Yes she does have an instantly recognizable voice almost ethereal at times, totally unique sound. The intro to this song really shows it...

Respect to Peter Wyngarde. One of the most stylish actors in the decade that style forgot (the 1970's). And wonderful as Flash Gordon's 'Klytus'...
