You can pry the gun from his hand now.

Charlton Heston has just passed away. RIP.

Good actor (not great).

Too bad he'll mostly be remembered for the spindly old man in the Michael Moore interview.

I think some poeple regret what they've done with their lives when they get old. Even if it was considered successful by others.

They gloom onto something, especially when courted by others and sometimes it's completely foolish.

I think this was the case here I mean really, did Charlton Heston have to give a fuck about what happened with the NRA?

I think he liked the attention and probably only had a slight interest in their cause.

Doubt that that's what he'll be remembered for. He was Moses FCOL. Ben Hur, Soylent Green, and POTA.
After the Liberal bent most of his movies portrayed, I was suprised when he became associated with the NRA.

I will always remember him getting blind sided by Micheal Moore in "Bowling for Columbine"..His true persona..Not to be confused with Moses, or Ben Hur, his make believe alter ego

True, but as an actor everything is a make believe alter ego. He was just soooo 60s in his original liberalism, then all of a sudden - NRA.

In the end, he's just an actor. As such, 10 years from now the only thing people will remember is Ben Hur, Ten Commandments, POTA, Soylent Green, et al.

And people have the nerve to whine about Moore "setting him up" when in fact Heston needed no pit to fall into when he shot his mouth off.
