As a young lad I was mad jealous of him in "Far From The Madding Crowd" for that very reason. RIP Mr Cool.

Graham Greene, the Canadian First Nations actor who starred in films including Dances With Wolves, has died aged 73, his manager says.
"It is with deep sadness we announce the peaceful passing of award-winning legendary Canadian actor Graham Greene," Gerry Jordan said in a statement to CBC News. The outlet reported he died of natural causes.
Greene scored an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Kevin Costner's 1990 epic western, where he played Kicking Bird.
I think last thing I saw him in was a supporting role in 1883.

A truly distinctive sounding band - their first big single, 'Dreamer' was a regular on the turntable at the legendary Grove school disco in Raheny back in the '70s.
Sounds just as great today.
There's a thread about Kirk specifically, this sort of in depth stuff might be better off there?

Robert Redford, actor and director, dies aged 89
The death has been announced of the American actor, director, and activist Robert Redford at the age of 89.
Death of a Legend. They threw away the mould when they made Redford and Newman.
The last thing I saw him in was a Captain America marvel movie which, bizarrely, was quite good.
"In December 1968, NME magazine reported that Volman had insured his distinctive frizzy hair for US$100,000 against fire, theft or loss due to illness."
Whatever about fire or loss through illness, theft puzzles me? Was America really that lawless back in the late 60s?
What record companies got away with was just as bad...
Volman and Kaylan planned to continue working together, but discovered that the terms of their contract forbade them to use not only the name 'The Turtles' but also their own names
