Aw, man, that’s awful. I thought he was a fantastic Uncle Ben.
It’s true, confirmed this morning…:(….May flights of angels send him to his rest. He was Uncle Ben…..:(
What a picture to choose with the news
@Stella: Is he Italian?
I truly hope this is a false report…Cliff Robertson was a truly underrated actor, and a fantastic Uncle Ben.
If it IS true, may he rest in peace.
If it’s NOT true, may he have many, MANY roles in the future!.
He is (or was) a truly gifted actor.
*playing “Amazing Grace” on computer and saluting*
RIP
RIP,sir. *salutes*
He was an awesome actor. If you’ve never seen the movie “Charlie” I highly recommend it. It’s the movie version of the classic book Flowers for Algernon. Such a good movie. RIP Uncle Ben.
It never gets any easier….
Best part of the Raimi series, IMHO. RIP.
Aww man. He was MY Uncle Ben, and although Martin Sheen great casting, Cliff is going to be hard to top.
So sad! Requiescat in pace!
