Members Faulkner Posted May 8 Author Members Share Posted May 8 Shocking. The man helped to soundtrack so much of my teenage years: That drum sound is so signature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted Friday at 11:14 AM Members Share Posted Friday at 11:14 AM Novelist and campaigner Dame Shirley Conran dies aged 91 "Lace" is one of those books/miniseries that epitomizes the flashy decade that was the 1980s. Nostalgia of the highest degree for those of us who were young then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members applcin Posted Saturday at 12:33 AM Members Share Posted Saturday at 12:33 AM I don't live in CA so I've really only seen him a few times on youtube when I've watched some particular celebrity interview. He seemed like a personable guy. The article includes some celebrity reactions, including Richard Simmons.

Members Vee Posted Sunday at 01:57 AM Members Share Posted Sunday at 01:57 AM (edited) The legendary Roger Corman, who launched so many careers (Scorsese, Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich and so many more) and was unbelievably prolific, has died at 98. @DRW50 From not long ago: Here is some of his recent appearance on The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on Shudder, where he was honored with a screening of several of his films. I had a feeling his time was short but I am so glad they got to honor him in this way. If you have never seen Easy Rider, Peter Bogdanovich's stunning debut film Targets, or Corman's own The Trip (written by Jack Nicholson) or A Bucket of Blood (or his Poe film cycle, especially The Masque of the Red Death and The Tomb of Ligeia) I highly recommend them all - Corman had a major hand in either directing, producing or shepherding and growing the talent behind all of them. Film would not be what it is today without him. Edited Sunday at 02:11 AM by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
