RIP Martin Landau

Star of the 60's "Mission Impossible" "Space 1999" and "ED Wood" has died. He was 89 :cry:

Ed Wood - One of my favorite movies and Martin Landau was part of why it is. Someday I hope I get to go on and on for a while about why that movie means so much to me and how it relates to this group. As for Mr. Landau he was one of those actor's actors who never saw a small part. Only small people. The guy was really serious about his work and really good at it. Three Oscar nominations and one win all well after his younger days. Another one of those that they don't make like that anymore. 8-)
It's a dirty job but I got to do it for 27 years. Thank you.

Landau's performance in Ed Wood was nothing short of beautiful. He earned his Oscar with just the scene where he's talking to Wood on the street and breaks out into a performance from Bride of the Monster, let alone his amazing work throughout the rest of the film.
