Today is Fred MacMurray's 100th birthday, which he celebrates in heaven. He was born on August 30, 1908 - and before acting, made his way in the world as sax player!
With the exception of "Double Indemnity," my favorite MacMurray films are his comedies from the 1930s and 1940s. My least favorite MacMurray film is "The Apartment" - tough to like the guy when he plays a creep.
Here is a nice obituary from "People" magazine (which covers a good chunk of his years on "My Three Sons").
Hopefully I'll get to watch a MacMurray film tonight :D
Happy Birthday Fred!
