Ricardo Montalban R.I.P.
« on: January 14, 2009, 07:57:53 PM »
I saw in the paper that one of my favorite actors, RM passed away today of congestive heart failure.  He was 88.

Star Trek fans (like me) loved him as Khan Noonien Singh, but he had such a rich career playing so many different “ethnic” characters.  He was great as the paramour Phil Benton in Madam X (1966); too bad he died so early in the movie. There is a great appreciation of his career in the Washington Post.

May he rest in peace; he will be missed.  :'(
