Seniors - Do you remember Charles Durning?

Durning was always one of my favorites. He was absolutely believable as a cop or as a crook. (Or as both.) I especially liked him in the 1981 Joan Didion / John Gregory Dunne masterpiece "True Confessions," where he played a Los Angeles businessman voted "Catholic Layman of the Year" who was also a racketeer involved in the murder of a hooker.

I did not know until I read his obituary that he was also an extraordinary World War II hero--a suicidally gutsy man who was among the first to land on Omaha Beach, where he was wounded, and then later also distinguished himself in the Battle of the Bulge, where he was wounded again.

Glad to hear he made it to 89 and lived to enjoy many honors, including a Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

I liked Charles Durning in every role he played. In Queen of the Stardust Ball I felt so bad for him at the end of the movie. He could dance and was so light on his feet for such a portly man. He was very endearing. Sorry to hear he passed away, but at least he lived to a ripe old age.

Yes, my favorite was Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, he was so good in that movie. The YouTube video wouldn't play, but I can see that it is that dancing scene from that movie. So good. Just read that he used to be a dance instructor many years ago.

RIP Mr. Durning, we'll miss you.

Yes, I remember the TV movie he made called Queen of the Stardust Ballroom. Very moving. He also did another program where he read actual letters by WW2 soldiers front the front.

Just watched "Oh Brother " again last Sunday.( He portrayed Pappy O'Daniel). I mentioned to my wife that he was the most decorated ' living' WWII veteran. I'm not sure if that is true, but I heard his good friend, Burt Reynolds, say so on a talk show, so I accept it.

Yup, great actor. I personally loved him in the original When A Stranger Calls with Carol Kane. Great movie.

even as did G strings change into thongs? even as did thongs change into turn flops? precisely even as did this all ensue? replaced into this a mild transformation or replaced into it unexpected? Sorry for asking really of answering. it really is really asking what got here first the chicken or the egg i assume. I easily have worn all the above at one time or yet another and they were not an same issues when I wore them as neither replaced into worn to conceal or preserve some thing.

Yes I remember him and I loved him also as a character actor. He reminded me a lot of the actor Brian Dennehy. I liked him in the Queen of the Stardust Ball.

He was also in Tootsie as Jessica Lange's father, the one who fell in love with "Dorothy Michaels". Yes, he was in a lot of movies and television programs, very good character actor.

I liked him, sorry to hear that.

Jack Klugman died last night, he was 90, he was Oscar Madison in "The Odd Couple."
