No actor was more intense and believable. Bigger than life.

Kirk Douglas lived quite the life and his contributions to society will never be forgotten. His son has also done a good job at carrying on his legacy in the film industry.

He had a heart of gold as well, doing much charity work in his latter years.

He may be gone, but Douglas' legacy will live on with all of the films he starred in, and even television appearances. R.I.P.

He was the best of the best

[@kevinhealey6540]

When someone recognized him on the street and went up to him, he talked real friendly to the person. He really enjoyed himself talking to them.
When he was't even nominated for the best actor for Spartacus, I never bothered to watch it ever again.

[@zachariah5079]

Spartacus is a great film! Why would you allow a dumb award committee like the oscars to stop you from watching it ever again?

[@moviefan8533]

James Dean and Brando get all the credit for naturalistic performances. But watch this and tell me Kirk wasn't making some absolutely bold choices in his day. Legend.
