OMG! She was a good actress, and I just love that movie. It's one of my favorite Sci-Fi movies next to Forbidden Planet, War of the Worlds and the Time Machine. She thought the movie was funny, shows how good she was.

Patricia R.I.P. you earned it.

Here is a link to the original story...http://thenostalgialeague.com/olmag/...he-master.html

R.I.P. Ms. Neal. Not many people get to utter such an iconic line that's still remembered 50 years later.

R.I.P Patricia Neal. One of my friends has a t-shirt with that phrase on it, so I can never forget about that movie.

Sorry to tell ya but she wasn't in War of the Worlds. That was Ann Robinson, still a great movie.

It was used in Army of Darkness as an homage to The day the Earth stood still (1951).

Patricia Neal was also married to Roald Dahl, the author of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." He was also the screenwriter for two Ian Fleming novels made into film, "You Only Live Twice" (James Bond) and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang."

What is really amazing is if you look at his biography, he helped to pioneer new medical treatments after his son suffered a brain injury, and then after his wife, Patricia Neal, suffered her somewhat famous strokes (which was itself the subject of a TV movie, "The Patricia Neal Story.")


LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)
