What Will We Do When We’re Left With Lindsay Lohan and Ashton Kutcher?

Empty Theatre Seats I just noticed the birthday box on the left… how can Harvey Keitel be 69 and Bea Arthur be 86?? Doesn’t that somehow seem excessive, or is it just me?

It dawned on me that at some point in the not so distant future, we will be subject to losing some greats due to age. Look out lifetime achievement awards. Judi Dench, Jack Nicholson, Sean Connery, Ian McKellan… these guys aren’t getting any younger are they? I’m not suggesting that they’re all going to just drop dead, but I imagine they aren’t going to go on acting forever.

Gosh, those were just the first few I thought of… the next ten years can expect some big hits I’m thinking.

Without falling too deeply into morbidity, who am I forgetting?

    A few other great older actors still working and actively acting that I thought of l are Donald Sutherland (73), Anthony Hopkins (71), and Peter O’Toole (76).

    Lindsay Lohan and Ashton Kutcher……NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    That is a scary thought indeed that they may one day be the best there is. I know that isn’t what this post is truly about but it gives me the heeby jeebies all the same.

    I have often thought along those lines though that slowly these truly great actors will pass on.

Got something to say?
