Charlton Heston Dead At 84

Post by Kansas Viking »

Saw this morning where Heston died last night. A great actor who will be missed. I never miss The 10 Commandants when it comes on. That movie was one of my earliest memories of going to a theater. I never miss it or Ben Hur. Great movies by a great actor.

And lastly, "Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!"

RIP Mr. Heston.

We've definitely lost a great actor. His performance in Planet of the Apes is one of my all-time favorites and he was great in a number of movies, including Touch of Evil and The Ten Commandments.

Plus there were The Omega Man, Earthquake and many, many more. Heston made a lot of films and he did some TV work too.

IMDB.com has an even more extensive list.
