I certainly agree with that - very sad news indeed.

Here is a short clip featuring Jane Russell, the great Hoagy Carmichael and Victor Mature from a time when women were stylish feminine and voluptuous, men were men and the plot depended on dialogue and acting ability more than computer graphics, fake blood and outlandish weaponry. (Or whatever the equivalent was at the time)
