Marsha Hunt has died at the age of 104. I know her best from her films noir, pride and prejudice and Cry Havoc. RIP
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/10/movies/marsha-hunt-dead.html
Thanks for the heads up Flora. Sad news indeed. I had forgotten she was over 100. Her 105th birthday was just about a month away. RIP Marsha Hunt.
There’s a documentary on TCM tonight at 8 PM EST called “Marsha Hunt’s Sweet Adversity”. It runs from 8 to 10 PM EST.
Hey Dan…thanks for the heads up on that documentary…I bet it runs again in the near future as a tribute to her career. RIP Marsha Hunt.
My message is from 2 years ago,
Better late than never. I was saying that documentary will probably air again with her passing. She was the top subject on Yahoo all day today. I found that surprising.
