Tony Curtis died last night in Las Vegas at the age of 85.
He was a first-rate actor, both with drama and comedy, and whatever the role, he was a pleasure to watch and easy to identify with. Sidney Falco in Sweet Smell of Success and Joe/Josephine in Some Like It Hot are two performances among my favorites. Curtis worked in films across seven decades, and during the 1950s and ’60s he was one of Hollywood’s biggest stars. A few of his films include The Defiant Ones, Spartacus, Rosemary’s Baby, and The Boston Strangler.
