Rest in peace.

Re: Happy 100th

I hereby declare it appropriate to toast his centennial with a glass of wine, but not "before its time". (Some of you will get that.)

As for where he is... according to Find a Grave dot calm: Cremated. Ashes are buried in an old well covered by flowers, within the rural property of retired bullfighter Antonio Ordonez, Ronda, Spain

Rooooooooooooooooooosebuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud...

Re: Happy 100th

His unfinished film, "The Other Side of the Wind," is in post production with Peter Bogdonovich and Frank Marshall. They were hoping to release it today to celebrate his birthday, but...they ran into Orson's age ol' problem: money. Backers are backing out.

Happy Century and RIP.

Re: Happy 100th

Even though I missed the exact date, a 100th birthday rates a whole year's celebration, so I'll say it anyway:

Happy Century, Orson! Though I never met you in person, you were the love and inspiration of my youth. Thank you for existing, you wonderful, brilliant, complicated man. I hope you can see from where you are that 1717 of us (myself included) have already done our tiny part to help THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND finally see the light of day.

... Ane let's hope this really takes off!!
