    You should get a similar dog and a similar cat.

    As a former dog owner, I can tell you, Thunderfinger, that it won't be the same. Cinnamon may one day have a successor, but he will never have a replacement. @FoxRox, my sincere condolences.

    I'm so sorry to hear that. Just think of your 4 legged friends waiting for you on Rainbow Bridge .

    I think my folks probably will adopt another dog from the shelter. May be similar in style, but the personality will be different. After our cat passed on last winter we adopted another rescued feral. She fits in quite well with family.

    Sad news I only watched a film with him in a few days ago Robocop 3, my earliest memory of RipTorn was in The Man from U. N. C. L. E. . One of my favourite roles of his was from Dodgeball “Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge.” R. I. P.

    RIP Freddie Jones.

    Great actor in some Hammer horrors: FRANKENSTEIN MUST BE DESTROYED, SATANIC RITES OF DRACULA. Was in THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF, THE ELEPHANT MAN , lots of television. Excellent actor.

    Rip Torn went a big strange in his later years. He broke into a bank thinking it was his home. :-O He had a distinctive screen presence and voice.

    Freddie Jones was in Clint Eastwood's Firefox as well as loads of other stuff. He was acting up till 2018 (in tv's Emmerdale) when he was 90. Quite an achievement! I didn't know actor Toby Jones was his son.

    @ToTheRight Sorry for your loss, being a pet owner all my life I can relate to your sorrow.

    Very sad to hear of the passing of the great João Gilberto too. Bossa nova has always been one of my favourite music genres and Gilberto, together with Antonio Carlos Jobim, was definitely one of the greats.

    RIP Freddie Jones as well, contributed to many decent films with The Man Who Haunted Himself being my favourite of them.

    Sad to hear of the death of Rip Torn. He was great as the guest star in Columbo: Death Hits the Jackpot (1991).

    Sorry to hear about Rip Torn. I first saw him in Francis Ford Coppola’s “You’re A Big Boy Now” (1967), playing a rather off kilter (what else!!!) father and official at the New York City Public Library. A nice little coming of age movie, the film is notable for it being Coppola’s UCLA Film School master’s thesis and for the Lovin’ Spoonful songs.

    With Torn’s death, among the major cast, I think only Tony Bill is still alive. Elizabeth Hartman, Karen Black, Julie Harris, Geraldine Page and Peter Kastner having all died some years ago.
