He is/was one of the "last of the greats", but I always wondered if that was his original name or just a big "F U" to Hollywood since he started way back in the day of the Hayes Office, which was heavy on censorship.

He had a full life.
He even rode a Brough Superior in Lawrence of Arabia!

A film I've seen many times. Caligula where he played Tiberius Ceasar.
"Swim my little fishies"!

I don't remember the movie, but he played a boozing actor past his prime. As he left the ladies bathroom, I woman stopped him & said " That's for women. He replied, " So is this, but every once in a while I have to run a little water through it." Miss him already.

Hey, look at the bright side. At least he died before the big A, so he has the resurrection hope
Don't remember ever seeing a movie with him in it. Maybe I'll check one out now that he's gone.

He was an awesome actor. And, when he was in his prime, he was totally gorgeous and sexy.
HOWEVER - sadly, he did not age well. He was only 81 but had looked much older for years. Drink? Probably.

Sealaam,
Thankyou Peter o'Toole for being 'Lawrence' and showing the terrible deserts where my father fought in WW II.
Sleep well the sleep of the just.
