Title: Late February Hollywood Obituaries
Post by ReeBop on Mar 1^st, 2006, 12:45am

We lost the following Hollywood actors over the weekend. Funny how they always seem to go in "threes".

Darren McGavin was known for his work in "Kolchak - The Night Stalker" and will be forever enshrined as the father in the movie "A Christmas Story". "Bumpasssssssss!"

Dennis Weaver did a popular long term stint in Gunsmoke as well as McCloud of NBC Mystery Movie fame. A notable movie for Weaver was as the driver of the car in Steven Spielberg's thriller "The Duel".

Don Knotts will be forever linked to Deputy Barnely Fife. He also had run on Three's Company as well as several comedy movies in the 60's. Remember "The Incredible Mr. Limpet"? The bullet is in your shirt pocket, Barn.

Thank you for your work, gentlemen...

What was the name of the movie with Dennis Weaver in it and he was being chased by a truck that was trying to run over him. I think Steven Spielberg directed it and it was right before he did Jaws.
