Robert Wise, director of "Helen of Troy", "The Day The Earth Stood Still", "West Side Story" and "Star Trek: The Motion Picture", died yesterday of heart failure, aged 91.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Wise. When you get to Heaven, go get drunk with Scotty and Brock Peters.
Sure seems to be a lot of death going around lately in addition to the Star Trek Death.
