It rained in LA. Cablevision and Disney settled. Clooney scowled. Meryl glowed. Cameron lost. It’s the morning after the Oscars, that Hollywood rite-of-congratulation where worthy films often lose, when sentiment and box office determines winners, and where evening gowns posit enough importance to rival the Iraq War. I’ve been a fan of all its…

Lovely British actress who never quite got her due despite benchmark performances in Hamlet, The Actress, Elmer Gantry and The Happy Ending. Above, as Kanchi in one of my favorite films, Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s shattering Black Narcissus (1947)

Best known for her Oscar winning turn in 1943’s The Song of Bernadette (at the age of 25), here’s Jones as the tempestuous Pearl in King Vidor’s 1946 horse opera Duel in the Sun. Underrated as an actress, possibly because at her peak she was also the wife of David O. Selznick, who shepherded her career. RIP.

Barry, center, with Robert Stack and Anthony Franciosa in a favorite show from boyhood, NBC’s “The Name of the Game.” Check out their double-breasted style. I distinctly remember wanting to be all three of them–RIP.

A slab of Grade-A beef who graduated from modeling in physique magazines to bits and supporting parts on television, notably on Felony Squad with Howard Duff and Bearcats! with Rod Taylor. Type-wise he was the male Farrah–ironically he married Jaclyn Smith after meeting her while guesting on Charlie’s Angels. RIP.

The face may not be familiar but if you grew up watching television in the 60s you’ll never forget the snarky music that accompanied these words: “They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky, they’re altogether ooky, the Addams Family.” Even in my predominately black midwestern neighborhood Mizzy’s compositions for The Addams Family, Green…

Maybe it was his serenity that drew me. Surely it’s what gave his portrayal of the title character in 1962’s Dr. No the dose of unease that assured his status as one of the best villains in the James Bond pantheon. Before that, Wiseman’s no-fuss presence enlivened such films as Detective Story, Viva Zapata…
