Valentina Cortese and Rip Torn, RIP -- July 10, 2019

I was sad to learn that Valentina Cortese and Rip Torn have died.  I remember her best from Francois Truffaut's Day for Night.

I remember when I was a kid and I noticed Rip Torn's name in the credits of a television show or a movie.  I figured it had to be an assumed name.  Later I learned that he was born Elmore Torn, Jr in Texas.  I don't know how many movies I have seen him in, serious and not-so-serious.

He played Judas Iscariot in the talkie King of Kings.
