Robert Clark of "A Christmas Story" Fame, dead. http://www.cnn.com/2007/S...index.html
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Film director Robert Clark, best known for the holiday classic "A Christmas Story," was killed with his son Wednesday in a head-on crash with a vehicle steered into the wrong lane by a drunken driver, police and the filmmaker's assistant said. Clark, 67, and son Ariel Hanrath-Clark, 22, were killed in the accident in Pacific Palisades, said Lyne Leavy, Clark's personal assistant. The two men were in an Infiniti that collided head-on with a GMC Yukon around 2:30 a.m. PDT, said Lt. Paul Vernon, a police spokesman. The driver of the other car was under the influence of alcohol and was driving without a license, Vernon said. The driver, Hector Velazquez-Nava, 24, of Los Angeles, remained hospitalized and will be booked for investigation of gross vehicular manslaughter after being treated, Vernon said. A female passenger in his car also was taken to the hospital with minor injuries and released, police said. ..... more on the website. | |

It's weird that there's a big interview in the LA Weekly--that just came out today-- with Tarantino, Rodriguez and Clark(among others). He wasn't done directing and he still had things he wanted to do with his life.  | |
