Tribute to director Tony Scott in the form of a Ridley Scott short (Joblo.com)
This 1965 short film, BOY AND BICYCLE, directed by Tony's brother, Ridley Scott, features a young Tony (roughly 21 years old) exploring the streets and outskirts of England, played to Hans Zimmer's score for Tony's 1993 film, TRUE ROMANCE. It's a touching picture of youth, freedom, and spirit, at a time before the great rollercoaster of life took hold and sent both brothers into a tailspin of success in Hollywood.
What I love, particularly, is the innocence of it all. There is almost always a time, long before the world really gets its hands on you, that you are free of the burdens and tribulations that will affect your life in such significant ways, and it's something that you can rarely get back once it's gone. To see Tony before his rise and fall; happy, eager, and ready for the world, is a moving image, compounded even more so by the fact that his own brother captured it.
In an unpublished interview with The Hollywood Reporter from April of this year, Tony said of Ridley: "We are very close; he is my best friend. It's been a brother-mentor relationship. But Rid and I are as tight as it can get. We are very tight and have had a brilliant relationship."
Here's Tony:

Dirks Sprüche waren für mich der Grund den Dschungelscheiß zu sehen, ohne ihn wird es nicht mehr so lustig sein.
"And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from
Thy hand.That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth
to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patri Et Filii.Spiritus Sancti"

Bin eigentlich nur bei Trailer-Suche über seine Reviews gestolpert, die ich meistens vorschnell weggeklickt habe. Dennoch isses traurig, zumal man die ganzen letzten Monate, in denen er plötzlich untergetaucht schien, akribisch bei Facebook aufarbeiten kann...da zeigt das soziale Netzwerk seine unheimliche Seite, wenn man quasi interaktiv an einem traurigen Schicksal teilhaben kann.
Anyway...RIP!

When he passed, he was surrounded by loved ones. It was a peaceful passing, just as he had wished for. The family requests privacy at this time.”
Hagman, who also starred on "I Dream of Jeannie," returned to Dallas to film season one of TNT's "Dallas" and part of season two. He had filmed six of the 15 episodes for the new season, which returns on January 28.
Warner Bros. TV and "Dallas" executive producers Cynthia Cidre and Michael M. Robin made the following statement: "Larry Hagman was a giant, a larger-than-life personality whose iconic performance as J.R. Ewing will endure as one of the most indelible in entertainment history. He truly loved portraying this globally recognized character, and he leaves a legacy of entertainment, generosity and grace. Everyone at Warner Bros. and in the Dallas family is deeply saddened by Larry's passing, and our thoughts are with his family and dear friends during this difficult time."
TNT provided this statement on the death of Hagman: "All of us at TNT are deeply saddened at the news of Larry Hagman's passing. He was a wonderful human being and an extremely gifted actor. We will be forever thankful that a whole new generation of people got to know and appreciate Larry through his performance as J.R. Ewing. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this very difficult time."

Jack Klugman - The Odd Couple and Quincy, M.E. Star - Dies at 90
Jack Klugman, best known for his role on The Odd Couple, has died. He was 90.
Klugman died Monday afternoon in his Northridge, Calif., home, his son, Adam, told The Associated Press
Born in Philadelphia, Klugman began acting after he was discharged from the Army in 1945. He started on the stage in a Broadway revival of Golden Boy in 1952 and eventually scored his first film role in 1957 as Juror No. 5 in the seminal Sidney Lumet film 12 Angry Men.
From there, Klugman went on to make hundreds of appearances on live television anthology series in the 1950s, including Playhouse 90 and Studio One. He also made four appearances on The Twilight Zone.
Klugman's most famous role was as Oscar Madison, the sloppy roommate of Tony Randall's uptight Felix Unger on the ABC sitcom The Odd Couple, which ran from 1970 to 1975. Klugman, who had previously replaced Walther Matthau on the Broadway production of The Odd Couple, won two Emmys and a Golden Globe for his performance.
A year after The Odd Couple ended, Klugman starred on the NBC forensic drama Quincy, M.E. as the title character, a tough medical examiner who solved crimes. The show aired until 1983.

Charles Durning, the versatile character actor whose friendly face and full form was recognizable to movie audiences since the mid-'70s, died of natural causes at his Manhattan home Dec. 24, his agent confirmed. He was 89.
Among his roles: The corrupt cop in The Sting, the show-stopping Governor in Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (for which he was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar), Jessica Lange's father and Dustin Hoffman's love-smitten suitor in Tootsie, a buffoon of a German officer in To Be Or Not to Be (another Oscar nod) and Warren Beatty's law-enforcement boss in Dick Tracy.

Mike Hopkins, Oscar-Winning Sound Editor, Dies in Rafting Accident
Mike Hopkins, the Oscar-winning sound editor behind "King Kong" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, died in a drowning accident in New Zealand on Sunday. He was 53.
Hopkins was rafting with friends through the Tararua Range on New Zealand's North Island when the raft capsized, throwing him into the Waiohine River, according to the Australian.
Hopkins was wearing a wetsuit, lifejacket and a helmet, but the river's fast flow dragged him under, police told the newspaper.
The sound editor shared an Oscar with Ethan Van der Ryn for best achievement in sound editing for "King Kong" in 2006. Before that, the duo won the Oscar for best sound editing on the second installment in Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "The Two Towers."
In 2007, he was also nominated for his work on the first film of the "Transformers" franchise.
Hopkins was also nominated for five British Academy of Film and Television Arts awards, and worked on such films as "Kung Fu Panda," "Dreamgirls" and "Valkyrie."

British Filmmaker Michael Winner Dead at 77
Source: Reuters , Edward Douglas, January 21, 2013
British filmmaker Michael Winner, the director responsible for the popular "Death Wish" franchise starring Charles Bronson, died today at his home at the age of 77, after being informed last summer of heart and liver problems that gave him less than two years to live.
Winner's career as a filmmaker spanned 40 years and included many espionage thrillers and action movies both in England and the United States throughout the '60s, '70s and '80s. His first American movie Lawman in 1971 starred Burt Lancaster and a young Robert Duvall, but Winner will probably best be remembered for his work with Charles Bronson, directing the three Death Wish movies as well as The Mechanic, which inspired the recent Jason Statham remake. The influence of Winner's films on action filmmakers during the '80s and '90s is hard to judge, but the revenge thriller genre would not be the same without those movies.
Winner's last film as director and producer was 1998's Parting Shots and in recent years, he has worked as a restaurant critic for the Sunday Times. He's survived by his wife Geraldine who reported the news saying "A light has gone out in my life."
