the man from Uncle Robert Vaughn dies at 83

[grober]

As per title Robert Vaughn has passed away. He also acted in many movies over his career---- notable were the gunfighter who lost his nerve in the Magnificent Seven, the sleazy politician in Bullit and perhaps one of his most sympathetic roles the German Major in the excellent Bridge at Remagen. --"BUT WHO IS THE ENEMY?" ------RIP

He'll always be Napoleon Solo to me.

Sorry to hear this, always liked him as an actor. As Red says, the man from UNCLE is a memory from my childhood, but also enjoyed his more recent performances in "Hustle". Still, 83's not a bad innings. RIP Robert.

Cheers,

Gaz

I remember stopping at Remagen on a trip down the Rhine in the late 70's/early 80's .

The bridge itself was long gone , but the distinctive stone towers remained , and looked just like the ones in the film .

Every barge on the river also seemed to carry a W123 parked transversely on top .

David McCallum still going strong at 82 as Dr Ducky Mallard in the popular N.C.I.S. TV series. I recently learned that Charlie Bronson nicked his wife Jill Ireland from him.
Hollywood-- huh!
