Michelangelo Antonioni, Tom Snyder and Bill Walsh join Ingmar

After hearing about Bergman's death yesterday I was telling a friend about how there always seems to be 3 or 4 simultaneous celebrity deaths, and sure enough, shortly after saying that I heard that another great filmmaker, Michelangelo Antonioni (Blow Up died yesterday as well. Then I find out that both Tom Snyder and former 49ers coach Bill Walsh had also passed away. So strange how there's always a group to go at once.

    Yes they all seem to jump into the great beyond in a cluster. As if to say your not going into this alone buddy.

    Rest in peace Masters of your craft. May your stars shine even brighter upon your new journey.

    Sad news about Bergman and Antonioni - somehow it was comforting to know they were still around, a link to the some of the greatest works of film.

    I dug all these guys, they were all tops at what they did and yes as hellbishop put it so well Masters of their craft. I will miss them, but thankfully their art or legend will remain for a long long time! Thanks to them each.
