Cyd Charisse Dead at 87










We've lost one of the great ones. Ms. Charisse was a class act, through and through; there will never be another like her. Our thoughts are with her husband of 60 years, actor/singer Tony Martin.

  1. I always thought La Charisse was at her most elegantly feline AFTER her MGM heyday had passed; she looks fab in Minnelli's "Two Weeks in Another Town," the unfinished MM "Something's Gotta Give," and the trashy Dean Martin epic, "The Silencers."

    I'm still a little stunned by her passing; she was such a fixture on all those retrospectives and documentaries of late, and seemed so...unbreakable, somehow.
