Last Surviving Rebel Without a Cause Cast Member Dies at 75

Corey Allen, who became the last surviving principal cast member of Rebel Without a Cause after Dennis Hopper’s death a month ago, died Sunday of natural causes. Allen played Buzz Gunderson in the 1955 classic, winding up on the losing end of that chicken race against James Dean’s Jim Stark. Allen later went on to direct TV, winning an Emmy in 1983 for an episode of Hill Street Blues . He was 75 years old — and would have turned 76 today. RIP. [ PopEater ]

REVIEW: Despite Pedigree, Love Ranch Succumbs to Tired, Hookerific Cliches

Playing the madam at the center of Love Ranch , Helen Mirren seems acutely aware of the novelty of a freshly minted grande dame picking up her skirts and heading straight for the sex worker’s equivalent of Disneyland. As Grace Bontempo (a pan-lingual take on Mrs. Goodtime) she runs the Love Ranch, one of Reno’s legal prostitution outposts, with a self-consciousness unbecoming of one who could convincingly pull off royal blood. The spectacle of Mirren tricked out in mid-70’s pimp wear — ahead of her time, she even brandishes a cane — has a certain charm, but novelty alone can’t keep Love Ranch ‘s tiresome tropes and plodding storyline from dragging the film down through the Nevada dust.
