 ‘Day of the Dead’ Scene-Stealer Joseph Pilato Has Died at 70 One of the single best performances you’ll find in the late George Romero’s oeuvre would have to be Joseph Pilato‘s scenery-chewing portrayal of Captain Rhodes in Day of the Dead, the primary human antagonist of the film and one of Romero’s most memorable characters. Sadly, we’ve learned this afternoon that Pilato has left us at the age of 70. Prior to landing one of the top roles in Day of the Dead, Joseph Pilato had worked with George Romero on Dawn of the Dead and Knightriders, playing small roles in both films. Throughout the 1980s he also appeared in Effects, Gung Ho, Terminal Force and Shooters. Going into the ’90s and beyond, Pilato appeared in Alienator, Empire of the Dark, The Evil Inside Me, Pulp Fiction, The Demolitionist, Fatal Passion, Wishmaster and The Ghouls. |

 RANKING ROGER GENERAL PUBLIC SINGER DEAD AT 56 Ranking Roger, the co-founder of General Public and English Beat singer, died Tuesday after battling cancer. English Beat announced Roger Charley's death ... telling fans he had "sadly passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side earlier today. Roger's family would like to thank everyone for their constant support during this tough time. Roger was a fighter." Roger reportedly suffered a stroke last summer and was diagnosed with two brain tumors and lung cancer -- but no cause of death has been released yet. The late singer was born in Birmingham, England, and fell in love with punk rock as a teenager. He went on to play drums with a group called the Dum Dum Boys ... before joining The English Beat in the late 1970s. After The English Beat broke up in 1983, Roger and fellow Beat alum, Dave Wakeling started their new group, General Public ... which also included former members of The Clash and Dexys Midnight Runners. GP recorded 3 albums, and their biggest hit in the U.S. was 1984's "Tenderness." |

  June Harding, Actress in 'The Trouble With Angels,' Dies at 81 She also appeared opposite Art Carney and Elizabeth Ashley on Broadway and was a regular on 'The Richard Boone Show.' June Harding, who starred with Rosalind Russell and Hayley Mills in the 1966 feature comedy The Trouble With Angels, has died. She was 81. Harding died March 22 in hospice care in Deer Isle, Maine, her brother, John, told the Richmond Times-Dispatch. In December 1961, Harding debuted on Broadway, portraying Art Carney's younger daughter (Elizabeth Ashley was her sister and won a Tony Award) in the comedy Take Her, She's Mine, produced by Hal Prince, directed by George Abbott and written by Phoebe and Henry Ephron. Harding later played different characters as a regular on the 1963-64 NBC anthology series The Richard Boone Show and appeared on episodes of Dr. Kildare, The Defenders and The Fugitive before she retired from show business in the 1970s. In Columbia Pictures' The Trouble With Angels, directed by Ida Lupino, Harding and Mills portray spirited students at an all-girls Catholic boarding school run by Russell's Mother Superior. Making her first movie, Harding stood out as Mills' "often unwilling and incompetent accomplice," James Powers wrote in his review of the film for The Hollywood Reporter. He called her "an exceptionally vivid and convincing young actress" who handled her scenes with "competence and poignance." Shortly after the film's premiere, her hometown of Emporia, Va., saluted her with a "June Harding Day," and she received the key to the city. Harding graduated from Greensville County High School in 1955 and earned her bachelor's degree from what is now known as Virginia Commonwealth University. She moved to New York and landed roles on the CBS soap opera As the World Turns and in several off-Broadway plays before her big break in Take Her, She's Mine. |
