Flutterby™! : RIP Tim Curry

Well damn. 'Rocky Horror' Star Tim Curry dead at 80.

Rocky Horror, and, of course.... Tim Curry is escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism. (YouTube video)

An Oral History of Tim Curry’s Escape to the One Place Uncorrupted by Capitalism:

ANTHONY OLIVEIRA (author and critic): I think the pleasure of it is that Tim Curry is the master of camp and the master of menace and in the clip we finally witness something that is finally too ridiculous, finally too outre, finally too much even for him. Tim Curry has played the devil with 18 inch horns, but this at last is the bridge even he almost cannot cross. But then he brings it home! The accent, the costume, the arc of the “character” himself finally exhausted by whatever indignities he has suffered at the player’s hands. It is perfect storytelling.
