He's only trying to be what following how his dreams make you wanna be, man!

Tony Curtis was one of those actors who seemed to be constantly on TV when I was a kid. The Persuaders was my favourite programme.

Richmond Clements

He's a genuine loss... sad news.

Sad news. One of the legends from that era.

Star of one of my favourite films, Some Like It Hot:'(

I've just bought the Persuaders boxset, so will have an evenings viewing in his honour
An old-school, no-bullshit, boys-own action/adventure comic reminiscent of the 2000ads and Eagles and Warlords and Battles and other glorious black-and-white comics that were so, so cool in the 70's and 80's - Buy the hardback Christmas Annual!

That is sad. Love the Persuaders.
This news has made me think it might not be that long until we are hearing news of Roger Moore's passing....that will suck.
RIP Tony !

Tony Curtis dies on the 50th anniversary of The Flintstones and in one episode he played a cameo as a character called 'Stony Curtis'. Bizarre.

Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side.

Sad news.  I love Some Like it Hot with a passion undimmed by years, and he is marvelous in it - the scene where Sugar steams up Shell Oil Jr's glasses is outstanding, his affected voice cracks me up.  Every time I watch it I realise again just how perfect a film it is.

Yeah. I thought his best work was still ahead of him too.
STRIKE !!!

Does this mean sexual intercourse with Marilyn Monroe has finally passed from living memory?

Sad news about Tony Curtis. But what a life!

Grant Goggans

I think Adrian may be right... Norman Mailer died three years ago.   :D

Stephen J. Cannell. He was 69.  He was television for me as a kid.
