To stand up as the Hackensack-born comic foil to Gene Hackman & Ned Beatty in two sprawling SUPERMAN films was no easy feat. But Valerie Perrine did just that. And did so with warmth, humanity & great comedy chops. Rest in peace, Miss Teschmacher. #RIPValeriePerrine #Superman #SupermantheMovie

Len Deighton didn't just detail the flipside of Bond. He was an equal literary king on the espionage chess board who yielded two of the best spy movies, compounded Caine's star power, and how British cool presents itself to this day. Rest in peace, Len Deighton. #RIPLenDeighton #HarryPalmer

John Barry gave Bond his musical soul. His work gave the movies a spring-like boost, an autumnal melancholy, the promise of summer and the dangers of winter. He scored the stories inbetween the scenes. And in doing so became the scene. John Barry passed 15 years ago today. #JohnBarry #JamesBond
