News today that Donald Sutherland has passed. A sad day. I guess them negative waves finally got to him. |

RIP. Oddball was great but I really liked him as Liam Devlin in The Eagle has Landed. |

I know 88 isn't young, but dammit this still hits me. Just the other week I mentioned to my brother that we're at the point where those remaining from that generation of actors (Redford, Duvall, Hackman, Eastwood, etc.) are going to vanish like spring snow. |

She and Mr. Sutherland tell a story without saying a word.
Great actor, RIP. |

Three of my favorite movies, Kelly's Heroes, The Eagle has Landed and Dirty Dozen. I will miss him. |

Adding 'The Eye of the Needle' (1981) to his many fine roles. I corresponded briefly with him in the late '80s, when he lent his support to an anti-nuclear group opposing Canada's purchase of nuclear-powered subs. I corresponded in favour of the boats; he replied against. Neither of us convinced the other. He was as eloquent in denouncing me as that smooth-talking rogue, Devlin!! |

I think Oddball got a job as a college professor after the war (see Animal House) |
paints up some WWII Soviet aircraft.
