Loved Richard Chamberlain in THE THREE MUSKETEERS & THE TOWERING INFERNO (best sniveling cowardly death ever!). Also PETULIA, a truly great film. Fun fact: He made the first recording of Bacharach/David's CLOSE TO YOU. What a career! Rest In Peace.

Rest in peace, Richard Chamberlain, my long-ago crush as Edmond Dantès in the TV movie of The Count of Monte Cristo. Utterly villainous in The Towering Inferno and Petulia, and excellent in The Last Wave.

Petulia or Walter would carry the ring. Granny would get one whiff, see it for the trap it is, then manipulate someone nicer but dumber than her to carry it.
