From Hollywood icon to eccentric activist then on to President of the NRA, Charlton Heston certainly made the most of his 84 years. The devilishly handsome actor passed away this weekend. Dotspotter star blogger, popbytes, has the story…
Sad news this weekend in Hollywood - legendary Oscar-winning actor Charlton Heston passed away yesterday at the age of 84 with his family by his side - he had an amazing run - plus was quite good looking back in the day - below is a shot of Mr. Heston as 'Moses' in The Ten Commandments with Anne Baxter (who passed away in 1985). I loved him in the original Planet of the Apes back in 1968 - that updated version from a few years ago totally sucked! In recent years Mr. Heston was a bit on the crazy side - he was president of the 'National Rifle Association' from 1998-2003 and you'll probably recall him being interviewed in Michael Moore's Oscar-winning documentary Bowling For Columbine (watch the clip). I prefer to remember him as a great larger than life actor.
