We cannot let the death of our namesake, Charlton Heston, slip by without a mention, because he made one of our all time FAVORITE movies. Politics aside, we have to love Charlton for his classic science fiction movie “Soylent Green.” It gave us a big scare because it depicted life in the future as hideously overpopulated, disastrously polluted, and fresh food was just a memory. Death seemed like a pleasant option. Seeing everyone standing in line for water rations, sweating profusely day and night in the yellow atmosphere, made us worry about the environment before it became fashionable. If you missed this film, rent it right away. Presumably, Al Gore already has.
About The Author
Yeah cuz our environment is just as bad as depicted in the movie.
Geez Janet, you are such a gullible hack.
And since you are against Heston’s politics, you must have been against the civil rights movement. If I remember correctly, Heston marched with Dr. King. I don’t remember too many of you libs in Hollyweird doing the same thing.
Heston stood for FREEDOM. Something many dems talk about but prove in their actions they are against as they want the GOV to have control over what you do.
Um, politics aside, I still read your website. When I mention my fav actors, I do not shudder thinking they are Dems, I just admire their work and don’t even bring up their political preference. The same could have been done honoring this great actor.
Dear Warden,
I’m sure it’s Heston’s more recent political views that she didn’t like. That includes his anti-Bill Clinton tirade and his NRA presidency.
Heston criticized Clinton for his affair with Monica Lewinsky, yet the actor himself was no angel. Heston had been known to fool around occasionally on HIS wife! Maybe even more than occasionally.
Heston was more liberal in the early and mid-1960’s. He did march with MLK. Later, his political views changed drastically.
Oh I understand. You gals and Janet supported Clinton’s right to suborn the perjury of others and obstruct his own sexual harassment lawsuit. In other words, you are for rapists (see Juanita Broaddrick) to sexually harass women.
Good for you. I respect your honesty about how it’s ok tear women apart as Bill and Hillary has done.
Remember, Bill and Hill hired Pelicano to trash the women who Bill had affairs with.
I wonder if they pried the gun from ‘his cold dead hands’.
Shame on you putting that dirtbag-money grubbing liar into a obit with Heston! Heston would spit on and shoot that liberal-commie traitor Al Gore should Al give him even a glance.. and want to be friends! The movie was about what the fascits liberals would do to the world if allowed to rule it HON!
Women still support Bill Clinton and I can’t understand it. He objectives women and I’d go so far to say that he dislikes them. Look how disrespectfully he treats them (those who he had affairs with, and the disrespect for his wife by cheating on her). I can’t, and never will, understand the women’s lib support of the Bill.
…………MOSES TOO!!!!
