Oh damn. This makes me so sad, big Spartacus fan that I am.

Googie Withers

Big fan. If only for "Dead of Night"'s terrifying mirror sequence-but Googie was more than that.

John Barry

Damn. When I lived in England we used to listen to Barry soundtracks at work. His second wife was Jane Birkin, with whom he shares a daughter, Kate. Check out The John Barry Orchestra, The John Barry Seven, and his soundtracks for "The Knack...and How To Get It" and "The Ipcress File" for starters. He also scored "Boom."

Susannah York

On the set of Freud, John Huston’s 1962 film biography of the psychoanalyst (in which she played a hopeless neurotic), she was so outraged when Huston sarcastically suggested that Montgomery Clift should get a guide dog (after the actor confessed that his eyesight was failing) that she punched him.
