TikiSoo Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Kind of late, but I have just read in the CLASSIC IMAGES obits that actress Cindy Butler died May 26, 2020 unknown cause. She was only 64 years old. She was briefly married to filmmaker Charles B Pierce who gave her a small role in 1976's THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN and a starring role in MST3K favorite BOGGY CREEK II where she plays the inappropriately dressed tag-along-friend: She pleads, "No Doc, I don't wanna see it" and MST's response, "No one should have to see the little creature" I loved her performance, she was really the most professional, believable actor in this movie full of bumbling wooden delivered lines. She lived her entire life in Texarkana and I feel sad she died so young. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

UMO1982 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 LINDA MANZ has died at 58. She was wonderful as Richard Gere's sister in Terrence Malick's DAYS OF HEAVEN (1978). Manz co-starred and also narrated the film. When I saw this in a theater in 1978, we sat, enraptured by the stunning visions and music. Nestor Almendros won an Oscar for his cinematography; music by the recently departed Ennio Morricone. One of the great films of the 1970s. Also starring Brooke Adams and Sam Shepard. https://variety.com/2020/film/news/linda-manz-dead-dies-days-of-heaven-1234736127/ 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
chaya bat woof woof Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 How sad about Linda Manz. Both she and the movie had a tremendous effect on me. By the way, while she wasn't know as an actress to some of us. She was a Jeopardy Champion India Cooper (she was on the Million Dollar Tournament of Champions) and had a cameo on Law & Order died in May. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Mary graduated from the same high school as me. I went to school with her nephew (he was in my class) and two nieces (one 2 years older than me, one 3 years younger). She lived in Hillsboro for about 26 years after she moved back home from Palm Beach. She was frequently seen walking her dog in her neighborhood and usually wore a cream-colored pant suit that was offset by her sunglasses and ruby red lipstick. My sisters had Mary Hartline dolls when they were kids; they adored her! I don't remember her from her television days though...I wasn't born when she was on the air. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
