Kirk Douglas, 103
« on: February 05, 2020, 06:41:51 PM »
 The actor starred in such films as 'Champion,' 'The Bad and the Beautiful,' 'Lust for Life,' 'Gunfight at the O.K. Corral' and 'Spartacus,' to name just a few.

Kirk Douglas, the son of a ragman who channeled a deep, personal anger through a chiseled jaw and steely blue eyes to forge one of the most indelible and indefatigable careers in Hollywood history, died Wednesday in Los Angeles. He was 103.

A friend said his  book The Ragman's Son was a riot.
The Ragman's Son is the title of the first autobiography by actor Kirk Douglas, published in 1988. In this book, Douglas chronicles his life story, from his beginnings as the only son in a family of six girls born to a poor Jewish immigrant, to his lust to become an actor

Wow, 103...impressive.  Steely gaze...cleft chin...not somebody you could mistake for anybody else.

Had a number of memorable roles...I think I liked him best with John Wayne...like in The War Wagon.

Lady Killer, in the classical non-lethal sense...not the "leave 'em in the car and let them drown" Ted Kennedy sense, eh?
