Fred Astaire is such a screen legend that he was the FIRST person listed on IMDb:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000001/

Awesome.


Astaire way to heaven.

Awesome, thanks for the votes. I tip my Top Hat to you all.

Happy anniversary, Chris.

New dead guy coming up.

Fred Astaire has now been officially obituarised.

Voting has now closed and the votes counted. I'm closing the votes relatively early as 1) we have a runaway winner and 2) it's my wedding anniversary.

12 entries and 11 voters, including a lurker.

Alternative entries: "Lying down in Rio", "Topped Hat", "Fried Astaire".

Congratulations to [matt] for picking up his 15th FWTO win! (and second in a row)

Time to get up here and give us a few words then choose the next victim. Make sure it's NOT someone that we had laid to rest in previous rounds.

You are now free to post any alternative FWTOs you may have.

heaven... I'm in heaven...

This week's viewing: Swing Time
Thoughts: I don't know, Fred and Ginger don't really do it for me. It's, uh... it's aged. (Who'da thought blackface would ever go out of style?)
[matt] Posted - 10/13/2010 : 17:05:56

Had Astaire at all the entries and finally voted.
