    R. I. P. Drew Struzan created some of the greatest movie posters ever, Drew Struzan kind of brilliance is sadly lacking in modern film art.

    RIP Roberta Alexander: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberta_Alexander
    What Golda Schultz said about her today on social media:
    🤍 The loss of a great like Roberta Alexander is deep for those who cherished her artistry and humanity. I first discovered her music before I had the privilege of meeting her, and when I tell you, the in-person experience was beyond what I could have imagined. I don’t think you would be able to grasp it. Such a generous spirit has left us. Such charm, wit, and sparkle has left the world.

    I am grateful I met her, but even more grateful her music inspired me to keep going when so often there were voices telling me I didn't belong. God bless you Roberta, may home welcome you and may others discover the goodness that you have left in all the art you made!

    You made my birthday a dream when you hugged me, and I’m forever grateful! RIP sweet sassy lady!

    That's sad news about Samantha Eggar. I knew her best from the Columbo episode "The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case" (1977) where she played Vivian Brandt, the murderer's spendthrift wife.

    Samantha Eggar played Jean Luc Picards sister in law in Star Trek The Next Generation episode Family and in that episode Samantha Eggar had a reunion of sorts with The Bye-Bye Sky High I.Q. Murder Case co star Theodore Bikel who also appeared in Family.

    Samantha Eggar is also part of the Bond alumni as Eggar did the voice for M in video game Nightfire.

    R.I.P.

    The Molly Maguires is a very good film, Eggar a pretty lady.

    Klaus Doldinger, jazz musician (saxophonist), band leader (Passport) and composer of film scores (Das Boot), passed away at the age of 89 at his home in Upper Bavaria. Most Germans know him best as the creator of the intro music to the perennially popular crime/police TV series Tatort ("Scene of the Crime"), which has been running for 55 years and is up to over 1,300 episodes by now - all with Doldinger's original recording of its title theme from 1970.

    RIP Klaus Doldinger, the score to Das Boot is one of my favourite films scores ever.

    Terry Farrell, British architect and urban designer whose works include the MI6 headquarters at Vauxhall Cross, died at the age of 87.

    While he certainly created interesting and somewhat more pleasing buildings (cf. https://nytimes.com/2025/10/21/arts/design/terry-farrell-dead.html?unlocked_article_code=1.vU8.H7Mx.8VU9606Bz_-x&smid=url-share), Vauxhall Cross was provocative at the very least. To quote from the NYT article:: "The building had a recurring role in James Bond movies until it was cinematically blown up in the 2015 Bond thriller 'Spectre.' Mr. Farrell noted that a group of architects who took umbrage at his polarizing design could be heard applauding in the theater." I sort of shared their feelings, but RIP Mr. Farrell nonetheless.

    June Lockhart, who played Timmy Martin's mother in the TV series Lassie from 1958 to 1964, died at the age of 100 years. That she left an impression on me is especially remarkable as my family did not have a TV set before Christmas 1965, so I went to other places to watch Lassie (and also Fury and Rin-Tin-Tin) at the time, and somehow her name ingrained itself in my maybe five- to seven-year old brain, along with that of Jon Provost who played Timmy. RIP June, you had a fulfilled life and made people happy.

    It may sound trite to say, but the loss of June Lockhart is a real lost for we "1960s kids." I had a feeling that this day would come based on something that actor Bill Mumy said earlier this year, but I had hoped that I had read too much into his comment.

    I saw her in re-runs of the Lassie TV show fairly late. Of course, I remember her mostly from her turn as Dr. Maureen Robinson in the TV series Lost In Space (1965-1968) which was a fixture for this young lad (didn't get into Star Trek until later). IIRC, after the conclusion of that show, she wound up as the town Doctor on Petticoat Junction - effectively replacing another legend to we kids: Bea Benaderet, who had just passed away.

    If I have a single description of Ms. Lockhart, it would be classy. Always wise, but stern and heroic when the situation required it.
