Peter Bogdanovich. Wow! I met him once, he came down to Argentina for a film festival and was super nice. Also one of the last remaining links to classic Hollywood

Another big one; Sidney Poitier. He was 94 so not a surprise in that sense.

When these older celebrities die, do you guys start thinking about your parents getting old or dying eventually?
