Kirk Douglas - 11 days to go
Just 11 days until Kirk reaches his hundredth birthday. Undoubtedly a major star in his day so let's hope he makes it.

Would you recommend the Vincent biopic?

I think he will make it now, although i don't think he will be around this time next year as he unsurprisingly considering his age appears to be in a bad health, he looks to have declined quite significantly recently.
Also it is 70 days until Zsa Zsa Gabor reaches 100 years of age too i think she is much more likely to die before she reaches the milestone considering her health though she has been like this for years so who knows? |

Yes, good movie. I'd also recommend Ace in the Hole and Paths of Glory. And The Vikings is an entertaining way to pass some time.

Hope he makes it to 100 like his old pal Olivia de Havilland.

Sky Disney shows 20,000 leagues under the sea periodically.

Apparently not a nice guy if some rumours are believed.

One of his best roles was as a ruthless film director in The Bad and The Beautiful opposite Lana Turner, who also gave one of her best performances.

Not sure why reaching 100 will be such a great thing for him to be fair. Last time I saw him his skin was so translucent he looked like a hologram. It wasn't nice to see his apparent state of health.

I'm aware of one of the rumours but the other person in the story died far too young in suspicious circumstances (unconnected with him, btw).

With all of the celebrities who have died this year, it's clear that Douglas is taking their essence to prolong his life ..
He'll live to be 300, just you wait |

No. It' old style gung-ho 'culture' by numbers with every third line a quotable quote and somehow significant'. Plus it was done so long ago that it was all filmed in studios which to our eyes, accustomed to steadicams etc, looks horribly fake and old-fashioned. And it will tell you nothing about Van Gogh, only Van Gogh seen through the eyes of some hack Hollywood director and his producers.
France - Arles, Auvers-sur-Oise, Bouches du Rhone Holland - Nuenen, s'Graavenhague (The Hague) Belgium - Borinage, Wasemes, Grand Hornu Plus I wouldn't call Vincente Minnelli (and an uncredited George Cukor) a hack director. The film, btw, was based on Irving Stone's book of the same name, which in turn was based on the letter of Vincent and his brother Theo, |
