Jane Withers, the former child actor who bedeviled Shirley Temple on the screen and went on to star in a series of B movies that made her a box-office champion, has died, her daughter said. She was 95.

 

Withers, also known as “Josephine the Plumber” from TV commercials in the 1960s and ’70s, died Saturday, her daughter Kendall Errair said. Withers was one of the last remaining stars from the 1930s and 1940s, the height of Hollywood studio dominance.

 

Thought she has died years ago.

RIP: French film great Jean-Paul Belmondo dies at 88.

 

 

Jean-Paul Belmondo's battered face, laconic style and roguish smile captured the imagination of French 1960s youth.

 

Belmondo, who has died at his Paris home aged 88, was the cool rebel of the new wave of French cinema typified in Jean-Luc Godard's 1960 film classic, A Bout de Souffle.

That's sad.  Dude with a successful career and in his 50s and he still couldn't kick the drugs.
