 Ryan O'Neal Dead at 82 "Love Story" and "Peyton Place" star Ryan O'Neal has died. O'Neal was not only one of the hottest actors in Hollywood back in the day, but he was a major heartthrob. His credits include "What's Up, Doc?" "Paper Moon," "Barry Lyndon," "A Bridge Too Far," "The Main Event," and "The Driver." Ryan was nominated in 1970 for a Best Actor Oscar for "Love Story." He was famously life partners with Farrah Fawcett from 1979 - 1997, and they reconnected between 2001 and 2009, when she died. Patrick said, "Ryan never bragged, but he has bragging rights in Heaven. Especially when it comes to Farrah. Everyone had the poster, he had the real McCoy. And now they meet again." he shared the big screen in "Paper Moon" with his daughter, Tatum O'Neal. |

Ryan O'Neal was a fantastic actor but if Tatum's allegations against him are true he was a horrible father.
The two of them had amazing chemistry together though in Paper Moon which remains one of my favorite movies ever. Tatum deserved her Oscar for her performance, she's still the youngest winner ever, and Ryan should have got one too.
RIP to all those who've passed away.
