Turner Classic's Classy 2008 Tribute

DateMonday, January 5, 2009 at 1:15PM
Though it hasn't been updated to reflect the passing of Eartha Kitt, here's the impeccable 2008 Turner Classic Movies tribute to the stars and artists we lost in the past year. There are, of course, many heavyweights - Newman, Carlin, Ledger, Heston - and then there are some you might not recognize simply by their names, but then you see them on screen and an old memory becomes a new one.

We found the video over at Cinematical, which points out the beautiful song is "God Only Knows" by Joe Henry.

And if you're interested in the tributes from previous years, the Cinematical article has links to the past five.
