It's a pity that his lasting legacy will be as President of the National Rifle Associaition (pro-gun lobby) and as such he probably has more blood on his hands (indirectly) than anyone in America.

I do find it mildly amusing how everyone (when they die) is refered to as an "icon".

In reality his contribution to cinema was mild and brief, playing a few typecast characters in Biblical epics half a century ago, and then taking the part in Planet of the Apes (as no one else wanted it) in the late 60s.

Not sure that's correct - he was a major supporter of Dr Martin Luther King, and was standing only a few feet away from him (on the Washington march) when he made his "I Have A Dream" speech).

Nice quote from Sinatra when Charlton marched with Martin Luther King... "That guy Heston has to watch it; If he's not careful he'll get actors a good name". Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Actually, I used to refer to Charlton Heston as an icon when he was alive. He did play typecast characters, but he brought them to life like no other actor could - apart from when he attempted to play Long John Silver. That didn't work at all.
