Where the hell have I been ?? I didnt know Tim was in this state of frame 😢 He will always be a icon to his millions of fans around the globe including me !! Live out the rest of your life as you see fit Tim !!
Having suffered a stroke in June this year,I can genuinely say that it completely resets your life...I've been fortunate,I'd not ever say lucky,I'm still here,still mostly "with it" and mostly able....it's taken my career with it and I'll never be me again as I once was...but many don't live to tell a tale,and many survive but can't tell...It's like taking a hit from a wrecking ball....how much you earn a week means nothing and your worth won't save you....
In his prime he was a fine actor. I liked his role as the concierge in Home alone 2. He didn’t have a great deal of screen time, but it was still very memorable.
I'm so sad to hear this. He truly is one of the greatest most versatile actors of the age. I love him in everything from Rocky Horror to Clue to Fern Gully to The Wild Thornberries to It to the Muppets to so many various characters on Scooby Doo. It hurts my heart to hear that he's not doing well. 😢
And 11 out of 13 entries in “A Series of Unfortunate Events”. His audiobook performance will always come first when I think “Count Olaf”., Harper Audio couldn’t have picked a finer talent.
My favorite role of his is from Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3; where he was premier of USSR and sayd iconic line: "I am escaping to one place without capitalism... Space!"
This is very sad. Me and my friend were talking about the Rocky horror picture show today Sunday 18 feb 2024 what a legend best musical of all time it is after hearing time warp on the radio. Didn't know that he suffered such An impact in his life with a stroke.
Have you forgotten? One of Curry's greatest roles: the 6-part 1978 British TV series "Will Shakespeare," written by John Mortimer. Sublime performance.
I'll always Love Tim as Dr. Frankenfurter, Long John Silver in Muppet Treasure Island, the Conisseur in Home Alone 2 & in his series, "Over the Top" with Annie Potts & Liz Torres. I also Love his singing voice in his Cd "Simplicity ". I'm also impressed that he also does interviews with people. He's a great actor & anyone who's been in his life, career or personally is very lucky. I wish I was one of them. It's so sad what happened to such a beautiful person.
Wow...great seeing this special film about Tim Curry. I first saw him in West Hollywood and I think in a theatre on the Sunset Strip when he did one of his famous roles in a musical there. Then just a few years ago I was at the Rockwell (which is now closed) but he was able to be wheeled up on stage there with his female friend/singer that he did that show with, and the 2 of them sang a song together. It was moving. When he was done, he was wheeled off stage, down a ramp and then I saw that he went outside. I walked out there to find him smoking, and I embarrassingly, sort of bowed down to him to tell him I was a huge fan and that show I saw him in so many years ago. He was very nice and thanked me very much for coming out to tell him that.
He is an amazing person not only as an actor, why is nobody talking about him now 2024. He is amazing, and he is here still with us. My goodness what a beautiful person an amazing voice, nobody in the future will know what, "rocky horror picture show" meant or the movie "IT" as Pennywise the clown. True Icon he is. I would love to meet him if anything. Personal circumstances doesn't allow, but I will do my best, i have to meet him.
I saw and got an autographed in I think was 1978 or 1979. He was touring for his records . We were at the Roxy and we got there 12 hours before the concert started so we had good seats. Biggest thrill of my life. During the concert I touched his shoe, he was that close to me. We worshipped him back then. Now I’m devastated. Life was cruel to him in the end. Such a tragedy.
Ppl who don't know about Tim should just go back and watch. Home Alone, RHPC, Clue, Muppets movie...I was so lucky to be one of those kids that loved what he did for us. My generation was lucky.
Maybe im a bit biased since I'm a wheelchair user myself, but I always find it a little insulting when its considered tragic when someone's using a wheelchair. Absolutely it is sad with illness and not being able to live your life like you used to do, but its still a life worth living and it seems like Tim is adapting. I'm NOT saying its completely fine to just being forced to your body being different than you're used to, but I don't think that Tim Curry wants to be seen as tragic. Because he isn't. Differently bodied than before? Yes. Still got humour and communication skills (somewhat different than before due to strokes, I'm aware)? Yes. It doesn't make me happy that he has had to go through all of this but it makes me happy that he still is as active as his condition is allowing. That is NOT tragic.
The stroke aren't something unknown for me: my foster grandmother had a stroke back in 2010 and although she keep her life for a lot of time (she died in 2021) her left hand was totally disabled even with that stroke my granny Terra keep a positive attitude and a fierce determination to continue. That's probably why i'm feel so concerned by Tim Curry? Tim Curry are some kind of spiritual grandfather and my lifetime model. I wish become his successor
We love you tim! ❤ Oddly enogh my favorite role was from the worst witch....he was only in a few scenes but Its special to me bc that's the first time I saw him (well home alone but the worst witch is when I became a fan.... and I dont really like home Alone, I was so young that I didnt relize is was the same actor till later)
Tim Curry Reminds me of Mick Jagger. He could've played Mick Jagger in a Movie. He could've been a Rock Star himself Actually. And Richard O'Brian is an Incredible Singer and Song Writer.
Most don't know his Music career (as this video failed to highlight) I love his music most. His best albums are Fearless and Simplicity. Read My Lips is his First Album... and he has some LIVE tracks... This I tribute is his sentiment today with his song "Something Short of Paradise"... Don't cry: ua-cam.com/video/UfwH244p2HE/v-deo.html Like this if you like this song.
Obviously none of us know the specifics and that is his right to privacy! But I reckon he has dysarthria, which impacts the coordination of muscles involved in speech, rather than aphasia which is more about difficulties processing language, comprehension or finding the words you want to use
I would love to watch your video on Tim Curry’s life, but Siri is the one that led me to you after asking if Tim was still in a wheelchair today. I will not be watching your video because unfortunately you have a very long history of misinformation in your videos. So acknowledge the 10 second watching of your video as a complete mistake and not something I would’ve done if I had known Siri was leading me to your channel. Your misinformation is so bad I’ve tried to block your channel permanently from my feed multiple times but for whatever reason it keeps popping up. Excuse me while I now try once again to block you.
O'Brian didn't write the role of frank for tim curry, other actors auditioned for the roll. He happened to run into curry when he was out looking for a bodybuilder who could play rocky. Get your facts right !
Tim Curry is an icon and a scholar.

Some years back Tim Curry recorded a audiobook for one of my favorite books Anne Rice's
"Cry To Heaven". He did such a great job on it.
And 11 out of 13 entries in “A Series of Unfortunate Events”. His audiobook performance will always come first when I think “Count Olaf”., Harper Audio couldn’t have picked a finer talent.
I agree! Wish he had done more books
Press on Tim .God be with you .Hang tough👍👍
Dr Frankenferter and Darkness are my favorite characters and his song "I do the Rock" is fantastic!
The whole Paradise Garage LP was fantastic! Give it a listen!!
My favorite role of his is from Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3; where he was premier of USSR and sayd iconic line: "I am escaping to one place without capitalism... Space!"
😢 Wow, this was sad 😔. I wish him all the best on a speedy recovery !. I am 🙏 praying for him ......
Thank you for the support for Tim. We wish him all the best ❤
Clue is my favourite Tim Curry Film
Yesss ❤
Frankenfurter is my favorite role. He will always be THE Pennywise!! I'm glad he can get the care he needs and still knows he is loved and admired.
This is very sad. Me and my friend were talking about the Rocky horror picture show today Sunday 18 feb 2024 what a legend best musical of all time it is after hearing time warp on the radio. Didn't know that he suffered such

He also voiced Ben Ravencroft in Scooby Doo & The Witch's Ghost (1999).

He is a great actor.
Legend ❤ Ty for the memories
loved him in "Oscar" as Stallone's diction coach. Every, "Mr. Provolon-e" !! lol
I never realied Mr. Curry ever portrayed a couch in a motion picture. Was he a sectional or more of a Love seat?
@@sisterwendybeckett1983 Oops. Coach! haha.(Failed to 'realie' the typo.)
I'll always Love Tim as Dr. Frankenfurter, Long John Silver in Muppet Treasure Island, the Conisseur in Home Alone 2 & in his series, "Over the Top" with Annie Potts & Liz Torres.

Hes coming back for a final movie love you tim 😢❤
Great video
What a shame what a loss to all.
Sad but true. What is your favorite role of Tim?
@@FactsVerseUK Now that is a a hard one, Dr Fanking burger, or the Devil in Legend, but alway a good performance.
🤔 As someone who when to plenty of midnight showings of Rocky Horror, he’ll always be singing & dancing to me 👏🏻💕🙏🏼
Love you Tim!

I liked his evil chuckle and sinister behavior in the role of Trymon the Wizard in the Color of Magic 2008
The greatest villain actor of all time.
Any project he had his hand in, It was made far better.

I don’t like how you say “final days”
The dude is 78. His health isn't the best. There's just no way of knowing. At least his living the hell out of what's left
I can't believe it's been more than twelve years since his stroke. If I look back at some of my favorite shows growing up he was literally everywhere.
He also played in Congo also the high fructose adventures of the annoying orange
He is an amazing person not only as an actor, why is nobody talking about him now 2024. He is amazing, and he is here still with us. My goodness what a beautiful person an amazing voice, nobody in the future will know what, "rocky horror picture show"

Tim was also Professor Calamitous from Jimmy Neutron. Including in the Nicktoons Unite games.
Definitely one of the greatest actors out there.
I am a strike survivor as well
My right side is affected. 7 years in.

Tim Curry is 20 times a total legend!
He was great in Congo too!!
Underrated movie
Def. Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Ppl who don't know about Tim should just go back and watch. Home Alone, RHPC, Clue, Muppets movie...I was so lucky to be one of those kids that loved what he did for us. My generation was lucky.
I guess we all have to die. But I don't like that he's lingering. Godspeed, Mr Curry. ❤
Whether or not you read my wee comment: *Stay Free, Tim.* ♾
Thank you and FV UK. Rab 👋 🕊
Our pleasure! We're glad to know that you love our video. We wish Tim all the best in life ♥
I always wanted Tim Curry to star in a Billy Joel biopic.
Last night i was watching Bio's bahnhof, Tim Curry performing S.O.S. live.......great song !!! i wish him the very best.
I'm sad it might be Game Over for Tim Curry. Even so, I'm grateful for the life he had lived. I'm happy he's dealing with the problems with grace.
I first saw Tim Curry in the Muppets treasure Island. I loved him. Thats who he is to me.
HA! Tim Curry is back!!!
Hes a professional pirate
For a while, he was available via Cameo - but sadly, I think he's no longer participating.
I loved tim curry in clue and home alone 2
I would have loved to see him as another long john silver in a different treasure island adaptation aside from the muppet film
There is also a few other movies he's done like the worst witch and clue.
Let's do the Time Warp once again.
I luv u,Tim.
He would have a great Joker!

Nigel thornberry was a goofy dad cartoon character. Who was scared of that?
Klasky Csupo are known for designing the characters to be ugly on purpose.
Smoking can lead to cancer and paralyzing stroke.
The stroke aren't something unknown for me: my foster grandmother had a stroke back in 2010 and although she keep her life for a lot of time (she died in 2021) her left hand was totally disabled even with that stroke my granny Terra keep a positive attitude and a fierce determination to continue.

Tim Curry Reminds me of Mick Jagger. He could've played Mick Jagger in a Movie. He could've been a Rock Star himself Actually. And Richard O'Brian is an Incredible Singer and Song Writer.
Watch the movie "Blue Money." A very young Tim Curry stars in the movie and does an impression of Mick Jagger; he nailed it😊 4:40
Did you just refer to Nigel Thornbury as sinister?
I was looking for this exact comment.😂
Happy New Year 🥳
No mention of his long and successful Broadway/state career?????
Didn’t know he had a stroke. Oh that is horrible.
"The sinister Nigel Thornberry" and a bunch of villain pictures... Was this script proofread?!
SPAAAAAAAACE
Best ever transvestite I've ever seen, love him😢😢
Was this made by AI? The verbiage was very insensitive. 😢😢😢
Clue❤

CLUE! hello?!
Most of this is not correct, just read his biography on his own website
Obviously none of us know the specifics and that is his right to privacy! But I reckon he has dysarthria, which impacts the coordination of muscles involved in speech, rather than aphasia which is more about difficulties processing language, comprehension or finding the words you want to use
It’s just a jump to the left ……
And then a step to the right...
Put your hands on your hips…

Absolutely BS
The only sad part is him going to Hell...I hipe he didn't do too much I hope he repented
Excuse me? WTF?
