They're going to have to install some sort of assembly line in the LA county morgue. Stars dropping like flies!
Maybe they could re-work some old GM plant. They aren't doing much these days. |

Harve Presnell Dies at 75Harve Presnell, the Golden Globe-winning actor best known for his role as William H. Macy's father-in-law in Fargo and who starred in Broadway musicals The Unsinkable Molly Brown and Annie, has died. He was 75. The actor died Tuesday at St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica, Calif., after a battle with pancreatic cancer, Presnell's agent told the Associated Press. Born, George Harvey Presnell on Sept. 14, 1933, he was known for his booming baritone voice. The 6-foot-4 actor first gained attention in 1960 as mining prospector "Leadville" Johnny Brown in The Unsinkable Molly Brown. He later reprised the role in the 1964 film version opposite Debbie Reynolds in the title role. Presnell became a leading man when he was cast as wealthy, bald Daddy Warbucks in a tour of Annie. He continued to play the role in various productions of the musical, including a run on Broadway from 1981-1983. He also played the character in the ill-fated, off-Broadway sequel, Annie Warbucks. Outside of theater, Presnell was best known on the big screen for his role in the Coen Brothers' 1996 film Fargo, in which he played Macy's father-in-law. Some of his other notable film appearances include When the Boys Meet the Girls (1965), The Glory Guys (1965) and Paint Your Wagon (1969). The Fargo role helped revive his career, leading to roles in Saving Private Ryan and most recently Evan Almighty. Presnell was also no stranger to the small screen. He was recurring character Mr. Parker on NBC's The Pretender and starred in the short-lived Andy Barker, P.I. He also had a brief arc on Dawson's Creek as A.I. Brooks, an old-Hollywood director and mentor to Dawson. In 1965, he won the Golden Globe for Most Promising Male Newcomer alongside George Segal and Topol. He is survived by his second wife, Veeva, six children and several grandchildren. |

Marseille owner Robert Louis-Dreyfus died Saturday after a long battle with leukemia, club officials said. He was 63. "He was someone who loved Marseille, but unfortunately today he was swept away by his illness,'' Marseille's assistant manager Guy Stephan told iTele TV station. "It's a great loss for Marseille.'' Former president Christophe Bouchet, who worked under Louis-Dreyfus between 2002-04, said he felt "a deep sadness'' and added that it was "unfortunately not a great surprise, since (Louis-Dreyfus) was very ill over the last month.'' Louis-Dreyfus took over at Marseille in 1996. He was previously the director of the Adidas and Salomon sportswear labels. Louis-Dreyfus had suffered from leukemia for several years and his condition had worsened in recent months. Marseille did not immediately confirm the death on its Web site. Contacted by The Associated Press, Marseille's former vice president Jean-Pierre Klein called it "a sad day for Marseille.'' Louis-Dreyfus was a cousin of American actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played the role of Elaine Benes on the "Seinfeld'' sitcom. |
