"Charlton Heston, who won the 1959 best actor Oscar as the chariot-racing Ben-Hur and portrayed Moses, Michelangelo, El Cid and other figures in Hollywood epics of the 1950s and 60s, has died at 84, his family said today."
For anyone who hasn't read about it.... On that quote from Charleton Heston, it was regarding the fact that he had symptoms that were consistent with alzheimers and he knew the road that lay ahead for him. I thought it was a courageous statement given his predicament.
