    Was iconic Dr. Frank-N-Furter in Rocky Horror Picture Show.

    I forever thought the villain in the original Die Hard (Alan Rickman) was Curry. They are very similar.

    Trying to picture Curry as Professor Snape now. Thanks.

    So, a co-worker informed me that he knows some one who knows Curry and he HATES being recognized for being Dr. Frank-N-Furter. REALLY?! It's an iconic role.

    I can't stand actors that get mad about what made them famous.

    I only saw half of RHPS. I'd totally pay good money to just sit around and listen to him talk about "Clue," though.

    If I recall correctly, it wasn't his first stroke. I think he had one before. So maybe that was one plus two plus two plus one, or one plus two plus one plus one.

    Update: Curry's stroke actually was last July.

    So I guess "last July" needs to be tacked on to the end of the thread title.
