Terri Garr is, I think, the lone remaining actor from 'Young Frankenstein'

edit: I just looked up the cast and Gene Hackman (who I didn't even know was in the movie) is still alive at age 90

He was the blind man that the monster stopped at his cabin. Hackman poured the hot soup in the monster's lap.

Ok..got it. I never knew that. (and lit his thumb on fire!)

The monster was played by Peter Boyle...Frank of Everyone Loves Raymond.

Cloris was great. I remember her on The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

One of her more recent roles was on American Gods. She was very good playing a goddess.

Mel Brooks is still kicking at 94 as is Dick Van Dyke at 95

It is the passing of the torch...

Last year Kirk Douglas at 103 and Olivia De Haviland at 104...Sean Connery at 90 Carl Reiner at 98

I might add, no one funny has ever been stupid.

Nice run.

If you haven't seen "The Last Picture Show" you've missed a great performance (academy award winning) by Cloris Leachman....

I grew up in the late 50's/ early 60's in a small town just about the size of Archer City and about 150 miles away from where "The Last Picture Show" was filmed. The first time I saw the movie it was just like deja vu as far as the town, the dust storms, banging screen doors.... and many of the characters. That was small town Texas in the late 50's and early 1960's. and in ways it hasn't changed all that much since then.

For another glimpse of that place and era, watch "HUD" with Paul Newman.

Thank you Ms. Leachman, rest in peace.

I was just talking about Frau Blucher two nights ago. So strange, and sad to hear that she passed away. Rest in peace, lady gem.

Thanks, Jack. Really a great movie. One of my favourites. Lot of great actors - including Ben Johnson.

She won two Academy Awards for that film.
