Don't Call Him Shirley


LESLIE NIELSEN
February 11, 1926 - November 28, 2010

Although he's best known (and beloved) for his brilliantly deadpan comic performances in Airplane! (1980) and The Naked Gun series, here at SSUWAT, we'll honor Mr. Nielsen's memory by watching such fare as Forbidden Planet (1956), The Opposite Sex (1956), Tammy and the Bachelor (1957), and Harlow (1965).

  2. A wonderful person and a very respected actor. I corresponded with Mr. Nielsen through the mail a number of times and he was always very thoughtful and kind.
