Ah, David McCallum. His Illya Kuryakin rocked a black turtleneck, so much sexier than Napoleon Solo. A favorite early McCallum movie was A Night to Remember where he played Harold Bride, the assistant wireless operator who survived the sinking of the Titanic. Then there was the much later Mother Love where he played the ex-husband of a very obsessed and vindictive Diana Rigg. A talented actor and musician. May Mr. McCallum rest in peace.
