At least he didn't die of corona; that would've been ironic.
Executed.

Good post. Although not a Prince fan, I can afford him the respect that his talent deserved. R.I.P.
It would appear that the photo in question was actually published in a book in 1935, two years before the disappearance. D' oh!

As I recall there some good stuff on Joe E. in Mickey Freemans' book - he liked the hookers for sure.
Lovely looking lady. Saw quite a few interviews with her in more recent years - she always seemed really nice.
R.I.P. True legend of UK cinema and TV.

He was in Spider Baby. For about 2 minutes anyway.
Looks like he's had the munchies a lot since he got high.
Lupita Tovar from the Spanish language Dracula is still with us I believe.

Shocked just as I was when the Rik Mayall story broke earlier this year. I guess the pay-off is that those who make us so happy break our hearts when they leave. : (
Well, R.I.P. to his penis anyway. :)
There was a comic based on the original a year or two back that was pretty good. Unfortunately it got cancelled and the ongoing story was wrapped up unsatisfactorily. There was also a comic in the...

No photos in the Kindle version, but still a great read. Thanks for the tip off.
I would guess this has been posted before, but if you haven't seen it it's quite an amazing collection of old film magazines (Variety, Motion Picture News et al.) 1920s-1960s.

First I saw was Filthy Rich with Vanessa Del Rio, Lisa DeLeeuw, Samantha Fox and Jessie St James - still one of my favourite films! There's a cool website called The Rialto Report which has some...
Taken on his 36th birthday 6th February 1981. In the full picture he is with his mother. Another picture shows him cutting his birthday cake.
I can highly recommend both the autobigraphies of Pierrepoint and Ellis. I don't know how to take the potrayal of Pierrepoint as a humble caring man who sympathised with his "victims" but I have seen...
The pics of her losing it on stage at her last live show are just so disturbing. Not a great fan of hers, although I can see he amazing talent she had.
Why thank you kindly, my aim is to please :D
Gotta admire his spunk.
I read Linda Aleander's book on Eric Edwards and the porn industry a few years ago. A very interesting insight that I highly recommend.
Yes, Black Sunday is a classic :D
I just find it strange that anyone would want to use that car again.
I'm more of a fan of the 1930's-70's classics than the later films, and I'm surprised no one mentioned Curse of/Night of the Demon with Dana Andrews and Peggy Cummins. Crappy rubber masked monster,...

I love Ian Dury.
Norman Watt-Roy is one of the greatest unsung heroes in the industry IMO. Phenomenal bass player.

Great actor. He was also in a few Laurel & Hardy movies as well as a minor role in the first Batman serial.
Yep, it was originally Prism, but he later changed his mind and was gonna call his set up Taupe, after the colour of his car.
Had Buddy lived and got Taupe Records off the ground, I'm sure he would have been a great and successful producer. His ideas and vision in music were astounding for a guy so young.
I wonder what...
An indepth study of Holmes life has just been published; "A Life Measured In Inches" is available through Amazon.
Englebert Humperdinck later lived in her house. He claimed to have seen her headless ghost descending the staircase. Of course we know she wasn't really decapitated, so old Eng's full of it.
A lot of photos from that era were re-touched to add definition. I've seen a lot where as the original photographic image has deterioated even further, the retouching becomes more obvious and...
