The Senator Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Curtis starred in such classics as 1959's 'Some Like it Hot' with the great Jack Lemmon and the lovely Marilyn Monroe and gave an outstanding performance as Albert DeSalvo in 1968's 'The Boston Strangler' - and let's not forget that, with wife Janet Leigh, also gave us his daughter and Hollywood 'scream queen' Jamie Lee Curtis. A Hollywood legend has passed. Tony Curtis, Hollywood Leading Man, Dies at 85 Edited October 1, 2010 by The Senator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senator Posted October 1, 2010 Author Share Posted October 1, 2010 RIP! Let's not forget this classic! Wow - forgot that one, great stuff. I understand that Curtis, despite having a 'Borscht-Belt' accent, did a dead-on impersonation of Cary Granite! The Boston Herald described him as 'impossibly handsome' and, as you'd expect, the LA Time had a nice obit...
