There was no one like him. Not one. He was hilarious in a way that can only be attained by fearless authenticity and defiance of the status quo. Whatever unique set of circumstances made him who he was and informed what he did and how he did it, the world had not seen anything like it, nor has it since.
As if it wasn't enough to be the funniest, kindest, most exuberant, most handsome (in and out) soul in the room... the man suffers a terrible stroke - an event that dooms most to turn troglodytic - and continues to defy. The man resolves to remain in the public eye, proudly carrying on, showing that even mortality wouldn't stop him.
Nor will it now. He WILL continue to inspire long after today, as he did in life. The sheer willpower this took, to tackle such harsh reality for 14 YEARS, with the same mischief and charm that carried him for 66 years prior... Herculean.
He never played the role, but he would have been a great Green Lantern.
🖤 Rest in peace a prince of Halloween, the King of Camp, and one of my greatest inspirations. The world is dimmer without you, Tim Curry, but we'll never forget the light you gave us, for it was a new color.
The Muppets have released a statement on the tragic passing of Tim Curry.
“Few humans have earned the title of honorary Muppet more than the legendary Tim Curry. As a performer, he was unparalleled – witty, charming, unnerving, and deeply funny.
We will always consider it one of our greatest treasures to have been part of Long John Silver’s crew. Thank you for everything, Tim.”
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
