Was anyone else sad to hear that Charlton Heston died?

Question

He was one of the greatest actors of all time; he fell out of the spotlight just before this new generation came along, that is why some of you don't know him. He was President of the NRA (National Rifle Association) for about five years I think. I personally remember him from his roles in "The Ten Commandments," "Ben-Hur" and "The Greatest Story Ever Told" which are great movies, even if you aren't Christian. The only other person I can think that even came close to his caliber was his co-star in "The Ten Commandments," Yul Brynner.

Answer 1

Yes, I was.

He was an amazing actor.

Answer 2

YES!  I just saw that.  He was a truly terrific person who lived an amazing life.

Answer 3

Yes ofcourse. He was an actor of a day and age where they performed because it was their job.Not like today where the actors are only in it for the money. He will never be replaced. He is a Legend. NONE of the actors of today can come close. There are only a few of these greats left.... today is a sad day for us all.

Answer 11

Yes he was a great actor who stood up for what he believed in even if it wasn't very popular.  This is in stark contrast to most Hollywood libs who follow each other in lockstep with the latest wacky fad.  Heston was also a civil right pioneer, who support MLK.
