Actor Tony Curtis, who rose to fame during the 1950s and went on to play widely varying roles in more than 100 movies of equally widely varying genres and quality, died of cardiac arrest at his Las Vegas area home on September 29, 2010. He was 85.
Curtis is perhaps best remembered for his comedic roles, such as his turn as a cross-dressing jazz musician in "Some Like It Hot" and a globe-trotting adventurer in "The Great Race".
