You mean this guy?
Good ol' Bernie Schwartz... He became really weird in his twilight years - or should that be "eccentric"? - but I sure did enjoy his films. The Defiant Ones is an all-time favorite of mine, and The Great Race, Some Like It Hot, and Sweet Smell of Success (to name just a few) are certified classics. You will be missed, Sir.
TCM will likely have a Tony Curtis marathon within the next few days, so check out some of his films!

Stoney Curtis was the first thing I thought when I read the news. Then I thought about Spartacus, The Defiant Ones, Houdini, Trapeze, and Some Like it Hot. Tony Curtis was definitely one of the greats.

Operation Petticoat is the first movie I thought of.

God bless him. Another old star fades from the Hollywood sky. This guy was a class act all the way.
Some Like It Hot, The Vikings, The Great Race, Sparticus...What a wonderful actor. Extremely entertaining. Rest In Peace.

Sorry, nbr3, I posted a new similar thread in the "Movies" section if you want to remove that.
R.I.P. Tony.

I had no idea that he was Jamie Lee Curtis' father.
I enjoyed much of his work.
