Leslie Neilsen

One of my favorite film comedians died this weekend: Leslie Nielsen star of such films as Fantastic Planet and The Poseidon Adventure but remembered primarily for his comedic roles in Airplane, Naked Gun and Mr. Magoo died from complications from pneumonia. Here's a link to his obituary from the L. A. Times and some more biographical information from Wikipedia.
