Lynn Redgrave died. Don’t know if you heard, but she was the sister of Vanessa Redgrave. I bring up that news bite because it prompted today’s factoid.
To my knowledge, I have never cried at the death of a celebrity. I might at the sudden death of someone whose movies have entertained me over my life, but that has yet to happen so far.
The death of Heath Ledger shocked me but didn’t make me cry. To be fair, the only movie I had seen of his was “The Patriot” at the time.
The celebrity death that most saddened me would have to be Natasha Richardson, mainly because “The Parent Trap” was one of the biggest movies of my childhood. She just seemed like such a nice person, and she passed so tragically. (Ironically enough, Richardson’s aunt was Lynn Redgrave.)

I had to say that I was a little saddened for the same reason you said. i loved The Parent Trap and always will, that will always have a special place in my heart.
I have never seen Parent Trap…but I felt pretty bad for Liam Neeson. The guy was just reaching the second wind of his career when she passed away.
Off topic – I was just curious when you were going to remove “The Blind Side” from your banner. My “white guilt” can’t take much more of it.
Haha, I was just thinking about that the other day. I guess I could go back to either my best of 2009 or my top 10 movies when I’ve started. I think I’ll regress to the latter.
You’re a good man Charlie Brown. 🙂 Now I can surf you site with ease…phew!
Well, I ended up changing it to my ten most anticipated movies of the summer. It will probably change more often as I make more top ten lists this summer – amazing what you can do without school!
