Robert Wise – R.I.P.
Wednesday, September 14th, 2005Robert Wise passed away today. He was the versatile director of a wide variety of classic films across several genres, including musicals (West Side Story and The Sound of Music), drama (The Sand Pebbles, Run Silent Run Deep and The Hindenburg), science fiction (The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Andromeda Strain and Star Trek: The Motion Picture) and supernatural horror (The Haunting). He was also the editor of Citizen Kane.
A large number of these films are already in my personal collection and most will be before long.
Bob, you will be missed.
