Aww. RIP Dean Stockwell

Postby The Black Forrest » Tue Nov 09, 2021 5:37 pm

Just saw he died today. An acting career of over 70 years.

I think the first thing I saw him in was anchors away and the thin man. Only really recognized him after Quantum Leap.

RIP my good man and thanks for the entertainment.

-edit-

Always an after thought.

The last thing I saw him in was Battlestar Galactica.

RIP, indeed. One of those actors whose face you know but the name needs work to pull up.

Indeed. He is also one of the few child actors who had a decent career as an adult.

True. He got to play Nick and Nora Charles' son, Nick Jr. He said he had very fond memories of them, and of Asta the Dog, too.

Damn. I really only ever saw him in BSG, but he gave a really great performance, sucks to hear it.

It's the opposite for me, looking at his filmography I realized that I've actually seen quite a bit of his later work when I was younger but didn't know who he was at the time, then later on I became aware of him from his child actor roles, so I recognize the name but not the face.
