He was 56 In Los Angeles, David Letterman remembered Zevon on CBS's "Late Show " His final album, "The Wind," was released two weeks ago The broadcast ended with Letterman speaking to the camera, saying, "Goodnight, Warren, we'll see ya Private Services Planned for Warren Zevon Sep 9, 9:10 AM EST Family and friends are planning a small private memorial service for singer-songwriter Warren Zevon His manager, Brigette Barr, says at that time Zevon's ashes will be scattered over the Pacific Ocean " Letterman talked about his friendship with Zevon, who had frequently appeared as a guest, and also played with the talk show's band Goldberg says not only was Zevon a great musician, but "a very nice guy, with a curmudgeony exterior that masqueraded a very caring personality Letterman said he knew Zevon's death was coming, but that didn't make it any less sad " Danny Goldberg of Artemis Records, in New York, says it's amazing that Zevon was given three months to live, yet completed an album, released it and was able to see how well it sold The head of Zevon's record company says Zevon "exited in a most extraordinary way Letterman said he admired Zevon's music, calling it thundering, exciting, rhythmic, complicated and unusual A public memorial service may occur at a later date " Zevon died Sunday in his sleep, a year after being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer "Certainly his partnership with Crosby was very amusing One of the things that Hope did that I thought was innovative was directly addressing the audience Hope says, `Yeah, but the people who came in the middle of the picture don't There was a joke that nobody ever heard because of roars at his reaction: `This man is officer material It works out: He accidentally does something heroic and he gets the girl First of all, it was the astonishing rapidity with which he sprayed jokes at you Crosby was so cool, and Hope was so frantic He could get tremendous laughs just reacting to things, without saying a word A doctor was shining a light into Rooney's ear He lost only a little of that as he became more and more successful " Schickel chuckled as he remembered scenes from "Caught in the Draft," in which Hope played a movie star who is drafted: "He was jumping off a piano so he could flatten his feet '" "I think Hope is the most verbal of all the film comedians," remarked Charles Champlin, longtime arts editor and film critic for the Los Angeles Times "Hope was verbal, but he also could be very funny visually, too; you didn't have to just hear him I don't think there was a lot of soul there; it was all rapid-fire patter " He then starred in a series of box-office hits, notably "The Cat and the Canary," the "Road" pictures with Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour, "Caught in the Draft," "My Favorite Blonde," "The Paleface," "The Lemon Drop Kid," "The Seven Little Foys," "The Facts of Life Then he created an amusing character, basically a cowardly wolf As a kid growing up, I thought he was terribly funny, and most of America did As much as anybody else, Hope created and sustained a persona that lasted from his Broadway days until now, as when he reportedly cracked about his nurse during his hospital stay, `I've got golf balls that are older than she is `Yes, I know that,' says Crosby Woody Allen, Critics Praise Bob Hope Jul 28, 9:49 AM EST A generation or two of Americans judge Bob Hope's comedy style primarily on his television specials, barely aware that he starred in 53 movie comedies over a 34-year period, some of them considered classics " Volumes have been written about the comedians of silent films: Chaplin, Keaton, Lloyd, Langdon Like in `The Road to Morocco,' when Hope tells all the trouble that Crosby got them into " " "There are a number of films where he's allowed to show his brilliant gift of delivery, his brilliant gift of comic speech Those one-liners and witticisms they're just like air, he does them so lightly "I remember `Off Limits,' when Mickey Rooney was being examined for Army duty He had a very breezy attitude, he was a great man with a quip Woody Allen, one of Hope's most devoted admirers, admits that his fellow comedian was "not so funny" in television as he was in movies Verbal comedians like Hope have been overlooked or downplayed in critical assessments `The Road to Morocco' was a very funny movie "He not only had the lines, but he delivered them with a wonderful facade "He managed to avoid letting his success put a crush over his vulnerability, which was a nice part of his (on-camera) character Because of his radio show's success, Paramount brought him to Hollywood for "The Big Broadcast of 1938," in which he and Shirley Ross sang "Thanks for the Memory '" Said Richard Schickel, film historian and critic for Time magazine: "I think in his time, particularly in the 1940s, he was a kind of major figure He could be terrified, he could be funny as a kind of loser " Hope started in films with eight comedy shorts he made in New York during his 1930s career in Broadway musicals ' They would shoot guns off near him and he'd faint "He would certainly be in the top five film comedians," Hal Kanter, comedy writer who co-wrote a half-dozen of Hope's movies, once said That may be due for an overhaul Bob passed by, did a double-take, held his hand up, and the light went completely through Rooney's head "But if you look at `Monsieur Beaucaire,' for instance, he's very, very funny," Allen declared in the 1993 book "Woody Allen on Woody Allen |
