For the past couple of weeks, I have been on a mission to find old movies that I saw when I was younger. One of the movies that I have been looking for is “The Final Countdown” (1980). One of the stars of the movie was James Farentino, who on January 24, 2012, died of heart failure following a long illness. It’s so weird that I have been thinking about that movie and one of it’s stars passes away.
The Final Countdown is a 1980 science fiction film about a modern aircraft carrier that travels through time to just before the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. It was directed by Don Taylor, and stars Kirk Douglas, Martin Sheen, James Farentino, Katharine Ross and Charles Durning. (From wikipedia.com)
I also should mention the passing of Joe Paterno, former head coach of Penn State. Regardless of the events that happened at the end of his coaching career, he was a great college football coach and should be remember for what he did.
So with the resents deaths of Etta James, Joe Paterno and James Farentino, that is three famous people who have past away.
R.I.P.

Hi Sylviagarza,
I was wondering on a similar note,, This film evaluate is of a complete length documentary to choose from for complimentary on the web. The World In accordance To Monsanto would probably have been the scariest video I have ever before found. The scariest component is that there is small doubt this is all genuine, and what is documented right here has been heading on for a long, lengthy time.
Good Job!
