Members slick jones Posted January 9, 2015 Members Share Posted January 9, 2015 Rod Taylor was the only man on Falcon Crest that truly held his own with Jane Wyman. RIP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 9, 2015 Members Share Posted January 9, 2015 I know him mostly from films. Big loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 10, 2015 Members Share Posted January 10, 2015 Handsome guy. Strong, understated screen presence. I always liked him in The Birds. I always sort of wanted him to have a happy ending with Suzanne Pleshette in that movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 10, 2015 Members Share Posted January 10, 2015 He did so much wild exploitation stuff and schlock in the '60s and '70s and he classed it all up while not being out of place in the slightest, just strong and resolute. I always dug him. They just showed one of his rarest films, Darker than Amber, at the BAM Cinematek in Brooklyn a month or two ago; I think it's on YT.

Members applcin Posted January 12, 2015 Members Share Posted January 12, 2015 And, in the realm of the uncanny, Anita Ekberg, to whom he was once briefly engaged, died a few days later on January 11, what would have been Rod's 85th birthday.
