Im4movies2 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Name at least one movie you know for sure that every leading cast member is dead or one including extras and crew would be dead I'd say any film prior to 1927. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vickisilverwolf Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 It would be interesting (in a macabre way) to see what the newest film would be that has all its lead cast dead! Depends how you define "lead actors" also. I was going to say *THE MISFITS* (Gable, Monroe, Clift) but Eli Wallach is still with us. I read somewhere that the only survivor of the cast of *GONE WITH THE WIND* played a baby or something, so that may count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edythevanhopper Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 How about 1956's High Society? With the passing of Celeste Holm, that might be a contender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swithin Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Well, maybe not the whole cast, but the five wonderful ladies in *Tom Jones* (1963) are dead: Diane Cilento, Edith Evans, Joan Greenwood, Susannah York, and, most recently, the great Joyce Redman. Cilento, York, and Redman left us within the last year or so. Of the gentlemen, Albert Finney and David Warner are still with us; Hugh Griffith and George Devine are not.

Edythevanhopper Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Holy Cow!! You didn't miss anything. I am completely wrong, thanks for that. I thought George Kennedy died 4 or 5 years ago. My apologies to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
