Legend Lost

Today April 6th 2008 legendary actor Charlton Heston died, he was 84. He died Saturday night in his Beverley hills home. The cause of death is still unknown. He was famous for his many great film roles including Ben-Hur in which he won an Oscar for. He was also the president of the NRA(National Rifle Association) for a period of time but stepped down after 5 years.

My personal favorite of his movies was the sci-fi classic The Planet of The Apes. It was this role that i believe will be his legacy based on the amount of people who know and have seen the movie. But choosing the best Charlton Heston movie is no easy task because of the sheer amount of classics he has been apart of.
