Wow. I remember hearing about some of them; but was surprised at many of the names.
Wow, quite a few I hadn’t heard about. Worth remembering a better time in the entertainment industry. RIP.
It’s still 2011.
I wonder if anyone in classic film who passes away before the end of the year won’t matter.
Thank you for sharing, I recognise almost everyone mentioned, despite the irritatingly overdone video effects, and the Academy Awards style brevity.
Beautifully done.
I hear you. There are nearly three weeks remaining in the year.
Thanks so much for posting. i don’t have t.v. and wouldn’t have seen it.And...
Thanks to Jane Russell for slapping a guy across the face
when he got fresh...
Thanks to Charles Napier for your riviting performance in The Silence of the Lambs...
Thanks to Tura Santana for being so fierce in Faster Pussycat!Kill!Kill!...
Great artists all.Also, really liked the music. Remined me of Mazzy Star.
“”Wow. I remember hearing about some of them; but was surprised at many of the names.””
Same here - we must have been too busy on FR to be paying attention. Obozo keeps us pretty busy here and our minds don’t quite work right after that much idiocy on his part.
I was surprised about Cliff Robertson and Anne Francis and others.
Wow I missed that Ann Frances died. They will make corrections like they did last year if someone else passes.
Didn't know about Charles Napier. Also saw that John Wood passed, from Wargames (he was the creator of WOPR).

As if I wasn’t feeling old enough already ...
TCM’s past practice has been to edit in any significant people who pass away after the video has been completed. In the past this has included Van Johnson and Blake Edwards.

Yes, my understanding is the video was already basically completed and Harry Morgan was edited in before the video was released.
