Farewell, Tony Curtis (1925-2010)

The legend, the mystery.

We must very reluctantly bid farewell to a true movie legend, Tony Curtis. He passed away today in his Las Vegas home on Thursday, at the age of 85.

With a career spanning a full seven decades, Curtis made his indelible mark on Hollywood history. He was the definition of playboy and he ultimately redefined suavity. He played dramatic and comedic roles with equal mastery in such films as Some Like It Hot (1959), Spartacus (1960), and Sex and the Single Girl (1964), and The Great Race (1965).  Read another farewell message and Curtis’s GQ interview on The Kitty Packard Pictorial.

Farewell, Mr. Curtis. We will always remember you.
