- As this unprecedented year comes to a close, TCM recognizes and celebrates the careers of the talented filmmakers, actors and industry insiders who have passed on.
Music - "Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening" by Tunewelders featuring Prisca Strother.
TCM worked with Tunewelders audio production company to arrange and record the track, which is a composition originally written in 1959 by Randall Thompson to accompany Robert Frost's Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening. Prisca is a vocalist from Atlanta, GA.

TCM does a much better job with this than the Academy does. They should show the TCM Remembers compilation on the Oscars broadcast.
So happy that Barbara Windsor got a late inclusion!
That will not happen today because some of those individuals were religious, conservative or a moderate liberals, the Oscar committee will not do anything to draw attention to them.
@@theherrdark4834 There's no need for your "Bah Humbug!"! TCM is simply remembering those we lost in the world of motion picture, regardless of their politics.
@@SoaringTrumpet Thank you for that comment
Yes, I have thought that too for years .... the Academy leaves so, so, so many out ... Plus they use it in segue to a commercial. TCM is much better, but then again they really care about movies much more than the Academy does.
The Academy....ABC.....or the show's producers...... should enter into a contract with TCM.....in which TCM is completely in charge of the 'In Memoriam' segment. These people ALWAYS manage to pack so much MORE into their 'TCM Remembers' videos. Beautifully produced & with just the right music, to pack an emotional punch. Every year, I'll usually start going back to watch the old ones too.
I was holding it together until the end. Ian Holm with the quote "I'm quite ready for another adventure." and followed by Olivia de Haviland with "I hope we meet again."
That's when every real "old-timey" movie enthusiast loses it... There will never be actors and actresses, yes I said, actresses, like them ever again! We have been blessed with their film performances. Rest in peace my friends...
Yeah. Me too. Me too. I got tears in my eyes now.
Do you know what movie the Ian Holm quote was from?
Language&Learning C’mon,.....LOL, “Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring,” of course!! 😉
Somewhere, Errol is helping her off her horse and they go into the house hand-in-hand.
Mine moment was for Olivia, she lived to be 104 and she was the final great one from the Golden Era, May her soul finally rest in peace
Same here. I think it's fair to say she was the last of the great actors of the Golden Age. What I find fascinating is she got to meet actual Confederate veterans in Atlanta during the premiere of GWTW. Not many people can say that in 2020.
@@JustanObserver1 Wow I didn't know she met the actual veterans at that time 😊
She had a wonderful life... in many more ways than one. To have lived that long, to have done all she did, to have known such success, to have been so happy. I’m sad she is gone forever now, but all of us have to go, and all of us just wish we had all that time and all that joy. I believe she is resting in peace and happy. So many people die young or have unhappy lives ... not her, though!
Not to mention she got to kiss Errol Flynn many a time.☺️
She's the reason I came to see this, wish they could do a longer version to do justice the ones that stand out, and she stands out among everyone
Quite a sad year in so many ways. So many of my favorite actors...gone. Diana Rigg, Sean Connery, Ian Holm, Olivia, Kirk...good long productive lives tho.
They lived long lives, unlike Chadwick Boseman. He was absolutely robbed.
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex Gone when his star was brightest, too. I'm glad we have what we do of his work, but I agree. It was far too soon.
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex right
We shall never see their like again!
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex Cancer has no prejudices and does whatever it wants.
John Saxon was a very underated actor. I can remember watching him as a young man in a variety of roles. Always liked him. R.I.P.
Loved him.
I am glad you mentioned him loved him in Enter the Dragon, plus a role in The Six Million Dollar Man.
@@mjstbnsn6294 Yes, I vividly remember his role in Enter the Dragon. Very underrated.
He was great as Nancy's dad in A Nightmare On Elm Street, and his reprisal of the character in the climax of 1994's New Nightmare was also great.
@@joeomalley2835 The scene I liked with him was he was fighting and Jim Kelley betting with an older Chinese man with a Hitler mustache. I got to see that movie again.
We also remember:
Neil Innes: musician,actor
Claudine Auger: actress
Robert Conrad: actor
Conchata Ferrell: actress
Little Richard: musician,actor
Joe Ruby: animator
Ken Spears: animator
Margaret Nolan: actress
David Lander: actor
Lyle Waggoner: actor
Eddie Hassell: actor
There's also Earl Cameron, Lee Fierro (from "Jaws"), Kelly Asbury, and so many more that they will always leave someone out.
@@archelaus1598 don't forget Ken Osmond from Leave It To Beaver
Thank you for mentioning Margaret Nolan.
ya...they all should have been included
I wish they could do an addendum
Michael Hall (2:56), who passed away in May 2020 at 92, was the last surviving main cast member of the “The Best Years of Our Lives” (1946) - such an important film.
I believe it is the best film ever made.
It certainly set the Gold Standard for ensemble acting in films, starting with that beautiful script.
Yes!
Thank you for that.
I couldn't place him and the set in the vignette.
Yep. I've been following the cast through the years and contributed that to imdb. Glad someone else noticed.
I worked at the retirement home that Ben Cooper (2:29) was in until he passed...he was such a treasure to me...those bright blue eyes, still wearing a cowboy hat every day...such a beautiful soul...I will remember him always....
how nice
I remember the face, didn't remember the name.
Julie InJoy - BEN COOPER ACCUMULATED OVER 115 CREDITS IN FILM AND TV PROGRAMS OVER TIME AND APPEARED IN A NUMBER OF POPULAR FILMS.
Thank you for sharing those memories and caring for him in his later years.
There is an odd little over the air tv new channel in my city that keeps repeating a couple of Bonanza episodes over and over every day. One stars Ben Cooper where he plays a new ranch hand Little Joe doesn't trust but every one else is charmed by. Little Joe turns out to be right.
With the death of Miss de Havilland, the Golden Age of Hollywood has come to an end. We will never see an actress of her caliber again.
@Mark AllenWell, the “Golden Age” generation has passed. We still have the generation from the end of the studio system, the rise of the Method Acting, New Wave generation, and many from the 70’s.
Acting techniques, standards of beauty and technology changes. Streep, DiNiro, Pacino, Nicholson are still around and active. You’ve been living through just as dynamic and talented an era as the so called “Golden Age”. Don’t let nostalgia cloud your sight. Remember, the medium has been in existence for just couple of years over 100.. The Golden Age came just 10 years after the silent age and 15 after institution of the Hayes Code. And it only lasted 15 years at most.
@Mark Allen if you watched the premiere of Marsha Hunt’s Sweet Adversity on TCM Ben Mankiewicz mentions MH as the last of the golden age movie stars
@Mark Allen that’s your opinion but there’s others who beg to differ. Marsha Hunt was the star in some movies and supporting in others but was blacklisted during HUAC which cut off her movie career for a while and she never regained that momentum as a result
@@the4hills344 So true! Vera Miles, one of my all time favorites ....
@Mark Allen I believe she, Marsha Hunt, IS a movie star and your opinion and words will not change that. True, she leaned toward character actor roles but she also carried films.
It's still hard to believe Chadwick Boseman is already gone.
Yes, it was very shocking news, because outside of his immediate family, Boseman never let anyone know about his colon cancer, of which his was a very rare case of getting it so young when the normal age is 50+, & was something he never really thought would kill him until the last 3 weeks of his life since it's highly treatable with surgery or chemo if detected in time; in fact, he was actually planning to bulk up for Black Panther 2!
Yeah, that was tragic!
Same here. I was in total shock when I read that he died.
@@dk60ish Why did he have to die?
@@deborahramos59 Because he was diagnosed at stage 3, so basically the progression of the cancer could only be slowed down with treatment, not put into remission.
Born in 45, so I've had the privilege of seeing many of the faces shown, and the experience of sitting in a dark movie theater without cell phones glowing and people talking excessively throughout the movie. Popcorn 10cents, soda 10c, and candy 5c. Admission 50cents. I miss not only the old Hollywood, but the civility, and feeling you get after seeing a good movie.
I'm glad Baby Peggy, aka Diana Serra Cary, was included. A child star of the silent age. She was the last silent film star left, I think.
She was outlived by another '20s child star Don Marion, who died on December 10th but wasn't included here.
That's interesting. Just read about him following your post. I wonder if there are any other baby stars left from that era?
@@dlee827 There's 4 according to Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_surviving_silent_film_actors
Thanks. That's interesting. It occurred to me that there might be Japanese or Chinese silent stars still around as they made the transition to talkies in the 30s, later than the film industry in America and Europe.
BABY PEGGY! A living, historical, cinematic relic.....gone forever and no major news source reported it....😥. I've seen her in interviews, she was amazing. Rest in Peace.
2:33 is so subtly beautiful... they weaved in Ennio Morricone's "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly" theme song into the music for that moment to pay tribute to him. You'll recognize it when you hear it... the essential cowboy music... "dew-we-ew-we-ew... wah-wah-wah..." Well, that's a crappy phonetic attempt but you'll get it when you hear it. Beautiful tribute.
Excellent !
I caught it as well. Beautiful.
THAT is why I always go to TCM first.
Am I right that he also did the music for "The Mission"? I saw it in the theatre in the 80's and recalled the beautiful music. I hadn't seen it since, but caught the last 5 or 6 minutes on TV a week ago.
@@lincolnmaceachern2410 yes, you are correct
My favorite part of this remembrance is the inclusion of the dialogue from "Cocoon." These stars of Earth have now become the stars in the Heavens. Beings of pure white light. We will miss them all until we meet them again.
The way they lingered on Carl Reiner and Chadwick Boseman on the words "before I sleep" was perfect and such a study in contrast against both men's lives. One was long, fruitful with a lot accomplished while the other was short, fruitful and still had so much to do.
Stop. You hurt my soul. Chadwick should still be here
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex Agreed.
Give it to TCM for making it memorable and thankful. They picked the right part of the music to show Chad Boseman. Still the most shocking celebrity death of 2020.
I've always loved TCM's "In Memoriam" tributes each year. Very moving.
For those asking, the music is based on Robert Frost’s Miles to go before I sleep, as performed by Prisca.
Or they could just look in the Description.
Yes I learned this in 4th grade and I taught it to both of my daughters when each of them were 2 years old and they learned that in one afternoon.
By the way this is lovely
@@FIREBRAND38 snarky john
Actually, I think it's called "Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening".
Yes I remember that poem. I love Robert Frost.
Rip Chadwick. He was so young.
Yes
The performances that could have been...
That one really hit me hard
Chadwick’s death devastated me.
That's the real tragic of 2020 we never got to see a long successful black superhero franchise it was the elites that killed him off.
Honorable Mention

Regis Philbin: Tv Host
Caroll Spinney YES. Hollywood legend.
He was a very kind man and my children and I were blessed to meet him 3 years before he passed on. I love big bird so much

RIP to all.
THANK YOU for taking the time to identify all of these clips. 🙏
I think a few of the selections could've been more striking/flattering, however, such as the ones for John Saxon and Rhonda Fleming. Also pretty surprised to see "Outland" here instead of, say, "Last Crusade" or "The Untouchables".
Where's Little Richard- "The Girl Can't Help It", "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", " Down and Out in Beverly Hills ", " Don't Knock the Rock", and many other films.
Wow -- you really have movie knowledge! Thanks for writing all of this out. I had been wondering about Jerry Stiller. I think your comment should come up first on this video.
This really helps. I did not know some of this, and could not place the child actors. Thank you for your work.
Chuck Amuck - YOU MISSED ADDING PETER LAMONT AFTER MICHEL PICCOLI IN LIST ABOVE.
I knew Olivia De Havilland would be the last to be featured. May she RIP.
Yeah, I wondered who they'd bring up at the finish after the ones mentioned throughout. They picked a proper legend. Also, her quote made a perfect finish.
The epitome of how a classy Lady once behaved
I wonder why they didn't have Kirk Douglas closer to the end.
@@kwebster62 --I actually liked how they started the video with one Hollywood legend and finished it with another. Two greats from the "old guard" of Hollywood's Golden Era with all the other accomplished personalities in between.
They wanted to start if off with a bang.
Olivia de Havilland and Kirk Douglas both well past their 100th birthdays, and Chadwick Boseman only 43. Life is strange.
A gorgeous tribute, as always, and maybe my favorite so far. Amazing how TCM manages to include people from across the entertainment spectrum: performers, writers, directors, crew, and more.
There was so many deaths this year that this could have been the two part but TCM did a good job better than most. Who will be able to watch Jeopardy without Alex Trebek? That's going to be a hard one😞
I know what you mean. Growing up watching Alex Trebek in Jeopardy, it's hard enough letting go. But no one could ever take his place....
Not really. He was once the new guy coming behind Art Fleming.
😄 I never liked Jeopardy anyway........ Ken Jennings will easily take his place.
Looking forward to the new Name That Tune show....my favorite game show in the 70s
So many giants. May they never be forgotten.
Just wanted to mention the actress who played the old Jamaican lady in Meet Joe Black.
Lois Kelly-Miller, passed 4/08/2020, at 102 years old.
Thank you for mentioning her; I never was able to identify her name from that picture. RIP.
That was very nice of you!
No one does an emotional gut punch quite like TCM. The Wilfred Brimley quote from Cocoon about never getting sick and never growing old and never dying where they're going really made me tear up
I agree. They are always moving and loving tributes. 💗
Same!
My favorite film of Wilford Brimley was 'Country', made a year before 'Cocoon'. Very moving. Also very special was watching it with my first wife a few months after marrying. She's still an integral part of our family and still a kindred spirit. We reminisce about favorite movies we used to watch together and 'Country' and Wilford Brimley's character, Otis the Grandfather, always seems to come up along with 'Dances With Wolves'.
Hearing his voice in this also teared me up and made me think of Nikki. I had to call her.
That one got me, too…absolutely love it. What a fantastic thing we have to look forward to!
This was Brimley who was best remembered in the internet culture for his appearances on Liberty Medical adverts.
How is it that TCM manages to include everyone in their In Memoriam, including actors, directors, writers, composers, casting directors and cinematographers and producers, while the Academy invariably omits dozens of iconic figures each year?
Maybe a subscription to the Hollywood Reporter?
The Academy is political, that's why.
Part of the problem with the memoriam at the Oscars is they always have somebody singing live, with a soaring orchestra, which is actually a distraction. Also it's always terribly edited, like it's an afterthought.
@@mizzmaria5215 I remember one year, when they brought out Streisand to sing 'Evergreen' or something, during the segment. Seemed like 80% of the time, the camera was focused on HER.
The Academy Awards is becoming much less relevant these days. I haven't watched their show for years now since it's no longer an entertainment show, but a political show for SJWs.
This year was rough. Thanks for showing David Prowse's face, he never got that in Star Wars. I like that you used Ian Holm's line: "I think I am quite ready for another adventure"
and kudos to them for putting him and Jeremy Bulloch back to back in the tribute
It's always baffled me why they didn't give him the reveal and force Ghost scenes in episode 6why go out of the way to needlessly offend someone who meant so much to such an iconic character
@@Ansonius77 Incidentally, Bulloch died on the same day this tribute premiered on their network and had to be added in afterward.
2020 was a sad year for Bond fans: Earl Cameron, Peter Lamont, Michael Lonsdale, Diana Rigg, Honor Blackman, and of course, Sean Connery.
Were they all on James Bond films? besides Connery and Blackman.
@@mattcampbell7669 Earl Cameron - Pinder in Thunderball
Peter Lamont - First worked for Goldfinger and worked as production designer for For Your Eyes Only to Casino Royale (excluding Tomorrow Never Dies)
Michael Lonsdale - Hugo Drax in Moonraker
Diana Rigg - Tracey in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
Gotta say, though... trust Connery to make an exit like that. Died in the Bahamas on Halloween!
Yes anyone that was a bond fan or a Star Wars fan it was a very tough year.😔
Margaret Nolan 76) GOLDFINGER GIRL
Ja'Net Dubois (Wilona)..... Always made me happy when I saw her on Good Times... May she rest in peace...
That last one just about did me in.
Olivia was so luminously beautiful.
RIP to all of them 💔🌹
Regis Philbin, they forgot.
After Olivia, the Golden Age of Cinema is forever gone. Did not know of Linda Manz' passing, though. Days of Heaven was an often overlooked gem from 1978. A Terrence Malick' Classic! Rhonda Fleming was gorgeous, too!
Rhonda Fleming was one of the last 1940s beauties.
When Linda Manz passed, she had a whole lot of tributes to her and her work:
From the Village Voice in 2011: www.villagevoice.com/2011/06/01/calling-linda-manz/
AnOther Magazine in 2019: www.anothermag.com/design-living/11955/chloe-sevigny-natasha-lyonne-linda-manz-cb-dennis-hopper-out-of-the-blue#:~:text=Linda%20Manz%20in%20Out%20of%20the%20Blue,%201980,re-release%20September%2024,%202019%20Text%20Claire%20Marie%20Healy
Not to mention the Guardian obituary: www.theguardian.com/film/2020/aug/17/linda-manz-obituary
For someone who career was so short and not from a premature death (relatively speaking) she had some memorable movies.
Let us not forget all of the behind the scenes people; the ones who truly made the movies for our stars to dance and act out their souls in.
Thank you! There would not be a single frame without them. A lot of people still seem to think that actors make up their lines as they go along, dress themselves, and do their own stunts, etc.
Beautifully done, as always.
Most definitely
Robert Frost's "Stopping By Woods On Snowy Evening" is a perfect backdrop for remembering the people who gave us so much through their talents for making wonderful movies. The Tunewelders' musicianship, and Prisca Strother's voice, interspersed with the voices of those remembered provide a fine mix of sorrow, and joy. TCM Remembers, and so will we.
My heart dropped when I saw Chadwick Boseman and Alex Trebek 😭💔 They were both masters in their respective roles. May all these individuals rest in peace 🙏🙏
I say this every year but Damn! So many good people gone. Yes, dying is part of life but it doesn`t mean I have to like it. R.I.P., what you left behind will never be forgotten.
No one is truly gone, as long as there are people to remember them!
Now this is how an online memoriam should be done.
It’s the passing of character actors that get me most. The “big stars” got damn good support from these people. They had familiar faces for decades, but named in memoriam only when they die.
TCM needs to offer its own subscription. About the only cable channel worthwhile.
I wish they put James Lipton on the list. Nobody knew today's Stars quite well like he did...
@@Themanwhocameback2 still another snark
@@Themanwhocameback2 right. Which is why Robert Osborne was included when he passed.
@@Themanwhocameback2 where did I advocate for Lipton? I just stated a fact. Never said that Lipton should have been noted. GO BACK and check. But then, this is just a comment section GOTCHA, right? Only you got nothing.
@@Themanwhocameback2 As I said, I was just stating a fact. I knew Trebek would make the cut because they gave him an individual "Remembers " after his passing. Before I knew about that, I wondered if his occasional movie appearances would warrant a mention. When Mr. Osborne appeared last in 2017, I was pleasantly surprised, but thought "Of course. Who else?" Never meant to knock Bob O. Apology accepted.
@@Themanwhocameback2 Correct! Because Robert Osbourne was an Actor in his younger years was the reason he was in TCM Remembers the year he passed
In a year when I have basically shut off the news, this was the first I heard about a lot of these deaths,
4 years later this still hits hard.
My God. Seems like so many more have left us this year.
My heart is heavy, tears are inevitable. Thank you, TCM, for the beautiful images, music and memories. The years end with these remembrances have become as necessary as breathing to a great many of us.
This is still by far the best TCM Remembers ever created.
Time mercilessly rolls on.
I dread this every year on TCM. It makes me feel so sad. They've all gone to eternity.
I like to think that the spirit communications some have received are genuine, that say they do get together and put on stage shows.
The one that hit me in the "feels" was Ann E. Todd. I didn't know she had died. I recognized the shot of her: it's from what was my mother's all-time favorite Shirley Temple movie, "The Blue Bird": she played one of the children yet to be born. (I watch it in tribute on my mother's birthday every year since she died in 2018; for the record, it's also MY favorite ST movie.)
What a nice way to honor your mother. I do similar things. Do you happen to know the movie Jerry Stiller is in at 0:32? I'd love to know this if anyone out there knows. Thanks.
@@patriciaguth6882I can't be certain but it looks perhaps its from The Taking of Pelham 123 (1974) because of his hat and his expression.
@@jenniferwilkerson2163 great, thanks for your educated guess. I had no idea at all. You just might be right!
@@jenniferwilkerson2163 just found out the clip of Jerry Stiller is from "The Ritz". Now we both know. I've never heard of the film but I'm going to look it up.
@@patriciaguth6882 thanks, I will. too : )
Happy to see Daria Nicolodi included here, both as an actress and writer. She had a great, magnetic presence in all of her films, and Suspiria is an all-time classic.
Just read the info about how TCM was involved with the song being recorded and the use of the track, which is a composition originally written in 1959 by Randall Thompson to accompany Robert Frost's Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening". This is now my favorite song among all of them. Simply beautiful and I love vocalist Prisca Strother's, voice.
When you watch this it brings a tear to your eye when see that your favorite movies stars have passed away. It's a shame they were wonderful entertainers.
It's kind of sad that since they featured Sean Connery, Honor Blackman (Goldfinger) and Diana Rigg (OHMSS) they could have included actress Margaret Nolan who was James Bond's masseuse "Dink" in Goldfinger as well as appearing in the Carry On films. She passed away in October of this year.
James Bond production designer Peter Lamont was there as well. He worked his way up from draftsman to production designer on the series.
Don't forget Michael Lonsdale (Moonraker), unless you're restricting the list to the Connery era.
Agree Margaret Nolan should have been included.
Agree, Margaret Nolan was The GOLDFINGER GIRL in the opening title. R I P🌹
@@kijekuyo9494 He was there, right before Connery. They do seem to group them.
So glad you included Irrfan Khan. Few American outlets do. He was not only a great actor, but a genuinely amazing human being. ❤️
We lost 2 Bilbo Bagginses this year:
Orson Bean & Ian Holm. 😢 R.I.P.
(3:55 & 4:01)
And all my early teen crush actresses died: Pamela Tiffin, Shirley Knight, Paula Kelly. I feel so old.
true
Carlton Poindexter: Don't go that route. Give thanks that you were able to have those teen crushes in the first place!
Didn’t know Paula Kelly had died. She was a tremendous dancer.
Me, too.
I didn't know Paula Kelly had died... I will always remember her from the early 1970s classic movie " Uptown Saturday night" as "Leggy Peggy" she will be missed great actress.
Goodbye to Helen Reddy also.
And Mac Davis
And John Le Carre, whose books were the basis of many films.
Yes!
This year honestly has been so long that I forgot some of these people had died.
GREAT way of putting it. I also was surprised at how many i missed. Paula Kelly and Stuart Whitman in particular. Dealing with so much sorrow this year put a void in my entertainment experiences.
@@infonut same.
But I'm so thankful we at least still have TCM showing film classics. It breaks my heart to think of what was done to AMC, now mostly known for being the home of "The Walking Dead" franchise. I often think about its primetime host Bob Dorian who passed away only 5 yrs ago. .
@@2004mojo a great thing about TCM is that they are one of the few networks if not probably the only network who work with fathom events to re release some of they're movies that are either celebrating a specific an anniversary of a films release, specific holiday, or paying tribute to someone who was involved with the movie who has recently passed. When they do this, it's to kinda remind us to savor the time we have at the movies not only witnessing some great moments being created but also sometimes re living some of the greatest moments ever moments made. When Gone with the wind was re release two years ago to celebrate it's 80th anniversary, that was the first time I ever saw the full movie and the movie in general. The only thing from the film that I knew aside from it being released the same year as the original 1939 wizard of oz, was the iconic line clark gable says at the end to vivien leigh which was frankly my dear I don't give a damn. That was the only thing I knew and seeing that moment up on the big screen along the rest of the film itself was an experience that wouldn't be the same if I were watching it on TV because there's a difference between the two and that the experience you get by seeing it in a theater would be totally different from the experience you would get by watching it on TV which the former will always trump the later. And this is the truth with any classic movie. Newer films nowadays it sort of depends on who's behind the camera and what the story is.
@@nickdorenkamp959 Great post. Yes I love the variety of events that TCM does and has been doing for sometime I agree it's a joy to be able to see a film on the big screen that you weren't able to see during its original release. I miss Robert Osborne too. I could listen to him talk about classic films all day.
Lovely tribute, as always. With that being said, I do agree that, even though she was mainly a television actress, that Conchata Farrell should have been included. She was in the movie, "Mystic Pizza" with Julia Roberts and I'm sure there were a few other movies. But that omission aside, this was well done.
She was Also in erin brockovich
She has a couple of funny scenes in Network as well
She was also on Two and a Half Men.
@@mattcampbell7669 That's more TV. Cochita was in "Edward Scissorhands" and "Krampus".
Yes, it seems like if they could include a tv host like Trebek they could include actors who did films and tv.
Hands down the best tribute TCM has made thus far👏👏👏
ABSOLUTELY.
So many names this year. So truly sad.
Another great tribute, TCM. Thanks for the memories.
They are gone but not forgotten
Watching all those key James Bond personnel in this montage was rather painful. They all brought a sort of magic to the screen that we will never quite see again.
Sean Connery, the greatest James Bond ever and a legend in the film industry.
RIP 007 ✝️ 🏴
Orson Bean and host, Alex Trebek were together on appearing in the early 1990s version of "To Tell the Truth" on NBC Daytime.
Always makes me cry.
The virus always made us angry.
May they all rest in peace & Thanks for the memories 🙏 😢
2:32 Never noticed this before - when Ennio Morricone appears, the music switches to a little of the famed Man With No Name whistle. Great touch.
Max Von Sydow . . . finally lost that chess game.
Damn ,the 3 eyed raven!! Fly away o' great one ❤⚘🌷🍁
2020 the year we lost a lot of great stars. Some from old Hollywood, some from middle Hollywood and some from new Hollywood. RIP in the Lord.
Sad we lost all these people but 2019's song will forever be a memorable one..
I can't say that I look forward to this every year, but every year I will watch it and remember.
Broke my heart when I heard Olivia de Havilland died.
Good night too all those who passed .
I'll miss Kirk Douglas, Jeremy Bulloch, David Prowse, Sean Connery, Tommy Lister, Fred Willard, Kenny Rogers, Wilford Brimley, Ennio Morricone, John Saxon, Alex Trebek and Chadwick Boseman so much
I. have watched these beautiful tributes for more years than I can recall. Always with a sense of awe as to the impact these actors...cinematographers...writers...editors...producers...casting directors ...have had on my life...my consciousness....my sensibilities ...my evolution as a human being and most certainly as an artist. Everything of any lasting value I have learned has been inspired by all things art. By books...by music..words...dance...sculpture...paintings...the stage and always...always the films. In my heart, I always say a silent thank you to each and everyone of them....as I do these. I thank you.
Great Comment , and SO VERY TRUE
Michel Lonsdale is one actor I liked a lot whose death had flown under the radar for me. Tx for this memento...
Just finished watching the last 20 years of TCM Remembers. So many great actors and others in the film industry gone. Whether you consider yourself a cinephile or just someone who loves movies, seeing these tributes makes you realize that life is truly short. Enjoy every day. It is truly a blessing. Live, laugh and love. To those who have passed on, thank you for sharing your talent with us. You are gone but will never ever be forgotten. Rest in peace.
Just f'ing brilliant....like every year. Nice that you included Alex Trebek. Leading with Kirk Douglas who was 101 was an awesome way to set the tone and closing with 102 year old Olivia De Haviland was just the perfect ending. Kudo's TCM, thanks for keepin it commercial free and classy.
Olivia was 104 when she passed.
@@TheBTG88 Time flies. Thanks for the tweak!
My Favorite Robert Frost poem, set to music. Well done. I lost my only brother in Feburary.
Ann E Todd was such a beautiful child. TCM did right by her and Baby Peggy.
Hard to thumbs up on this. We lost so much this year. May their contributions never be wasted. Thank you
They may not have been big movie stars but REST IN PEACE: Kobe Bryant , Neil Peart, Bill Withers, Little Richard, Charlie Daniels , Eddie Van Halen, Helen Reddy, Johnny Nash, Charlie Pride, Peter Green, James Lipton, Regis Philbin ,Margaret Nolan ( GOLDFINGER GIRL) 🌷❤🍁Dawn Wells (Mary Ann GILLIGANS ISLAND) Shabba Doo (Breakin)
Yes. 🙏🙏💗💗💗
It suppose to be ppl who were in film. And see alot of ppl lefted out that WERE in film.
@@thankthelord4536 Does these include casting directors (mike Fenton) and animators? And the list 5 people on this list were in movies or TV period. Damn! Regis was just too impatient.
So many wonderful people. So sad...x
I didn't even know we lost Kenny Rogers and Fred Willard this year! So sad.
That's strange isn't it?
How we hear so much about one person and nothing about others...
I can't believe that I heard nothing of Ennio Morricone's passing and he's one of the biggest names in motion pictures. (????)
R.I.P. to the Maestros Ennio Morricone, Johnny Mandel and vocalist Annie Ross.
These are always so beautifully done. Thank you, TCM for remembering. 😢
Didn't realise that Hugh Keays-Byrne passed just recently, that's so sad... Goodbye, Toecutter 😔
BEAUTIFUL. Thank you.
With the last few minutes of 2020 in Dubai where I am at, I want to dedicate a memorium to South Korean film director, Kim Ki-duk. He died early December due to covid-19 complications in Lativa just nine days before his 60th birthday. TCM missed you, the oscars missed you with a nomination for Best Foreign Film for your work in "Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring" but I won't miss you. I hope that your at peace at the mountain. You are most incredible and daring despite the extremes that you used, however that's South Korean cinema as Bong Joon-ho would say. May you be at peace!
Quite the haunting lyrics. The whole of it reminds me of my own pending mortality.
When Turner Classic MOVIES uploads these annual tributes, they should make it clear that's it's not a tribute to EVERYONE who died during the year, but just to those associated with MOVIES. So many comments regarding TV actors and singers who should be added who don't belong in a MOVIE tribute. As for Alex Trebek being honored here, as one commenter explained, he did work for TCM, even hosting their cruises. I hope this is (kindly) enough said on the subject of why many RIP folks are missing here.
We lost so many talented people this terrible year. It's sad. But they're at peace.
Our own Maryann....Dawn Wells. Many after school memories watching GI.
This memoriam is the saddest ever for me. At the least 40 people included are actual favorites of mine that I've followed and loved their work for years. I've never heard the song before now and it's beyond beautiful. With my repeated watching of the montage I don't know if my heart breaks because of the clips chosen or the fact that listening to the song makes me want to cry. A big shoutout for Helen Reddy that someone else mentioned had been left out. Loved her in "Pete's Dragon" and her music has stood the test of time.
So true . Tunewelder does that version of the song.
Great people/actors all of them !!! 🙂❤
Rest in peace to all we've lost this year.Thanks for bring us this look back, I still miss Robert Osborne.
The death of Sean Connery just broke this old girls 💗 and the Maestro Ennio Morricone
I always post these on my FB page every Jan 1....it is the most comprehensive memoriam out there. As an actor myself, I always pay respects to those who paved the way.
Marge Champion and Olivia de Havilland hurt the most for me. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Gone with the Wind are staples in my classic movie collection. Rest in Peace.
Also, does anyone know the name of this song?
PRISCA - Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
They both lived very long interesting lives also Kirk Dougles....amazing. RIP!
