It is a sad day when all the good ones start dying off. One of the first movies I ever watched on TV was Ben Hur. Then I watched Planet of the Apes all because CH was in the lead role. I think at this point I have watched almost all the movies he was in. He was a dynamic presence on screen. I remember him sparing with politicians over the NRA and gun rights. I loved his comments to Clinton back several years ago.
He was not afraid to speak out for what he believed was right or wrong.
I know what we believe and I also know that none of us know for sure. So with that said..
May God have mercy on his soul and grant him eteranal rest.
I had such a crush on him.
I enjoyed The Ten Comandments, watched it a million times growing up... no exaggeration.
Wow...thats alot of movie watchin. Had I watched a movie 1,000,000 times, I would have had to watch that movie about 54 times a day, everyday of my life. No way could I watch the same movie 54 times a day, every day! Now...The Andy Griffith Show? Yeah, I could watch Andy and Barney 54 times a day.
