inbhirnis...Actor James Whitmore dies at 87 today.
Why's that spooky? Well, just last night, I'd mentioned somewhere on LJ that I'd enjoyed the lesbionic movie 'Desert Hearts' and for some reason I went to imdb to check out something about it. I noticed that the 'ranch matriarch' was played by Audra Lindley, who is probably best known as Mrs. Roper in the US version of "Three's Company". I clicked on her bio and found that she had been married to..... James Whitmore. When I looked at his bio - last night - and saw that he was still alive, I was quite surprised. Oh, well - off by 24 hours.
Weird how those internet search spirals can lead you to surprising connections.
