Director Donner Was Force in Popular Entertainment



Director Richard Donner has passed at 91. His was a stellar career that embraced the best shows in the 1960s including The Man from UNCLE and The Twilight Zone's classic Nightmare at 20,000 Feet episode. He broke into film with a major horror hit,The Omen, and followup with several popular films including The Goonies, Scrooged, and the critically acclaimed Inside Moves. He gave us Superman in 1978 which was a significant success and spurred superhero films to this day (He co-produced the first X Men film too.) He is also known for his four Lethal Weapon films that were huge successes. He was actually prepping the last sequel too. What a remarkable career.
