Darth Vader dead

Well the actor who portrayed the physical Dark Father has passed away. RIP David Prowse.

In the movie 'A Clockwork Orange' Prowse plays the body guard for the elderly man in the latter part of the film. If you watch him walk it is unmistakable.

That is due in large part to the fact that he developed arthritis in his teens. Battled it his whole life. Multiple joints replaced and ankle fused.

Iwondered if he was related to Juliette.... nope.

Interesting. Never knew that. I liked that movie so much I read the book. I remember his character was Julian.
