Karl Malden

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/02/movies/02malden.html


Guess these things dont happen in 3s... I cant believe he was 97. He always looked much younger in his films. Great actor. I enjoyed his performance in the Cincinnatti Kid.

KM is probably the only actor I have ever seen at LAX just walking to his flight. I might miss a lot, but you didn't miss this guy. The nose. I'd say I saw him 20 years ago, so he would have been 77? He looked to be at the long side of middle age, but not 77.

Quite a career. I liked him in his cop show with Michael Douglas.

there are too many celebrities now. it is inevitable that they die all the time. the rule of threes s no longer relevant.

Alexus Arguello offed himself too. Or at least it looked like a suicide.

Billy Maze? Willy Mays?

Karl M was a menacing bad man in some movies. Scary mean characters. I wonder how he reached for that. I mean many actors can't even get there and get it across.

No, I thought that was funny. I'll bet KM would have laughed at that one.

tru dat

I always liked Karl Malden

I have been surprised by more than a few people's advanced ages in my practice. Currently only two that are triple digits, many late 90's
