Actor Cliff Robertson dead at 88
OSCAR-WINNING US actor Cliff Robertson, who rocketed to fame after playing slain US president John F. Kennedy, died yesterday at the age of 88, The Los Angeles Times reported.
The newspaper said Robertson passed away of natural causes at Stony Brook University Medical Center on Long Island, New York.
In the course of his career, Robertson appeared in some 60 movies, including "PT 109," "My Six Loves," "Sunday in New York," "The Best Man," "The Devil's Brigade," "Three Days of the Condor," "Obsession" and "Star 80."
But it was "PT 109," where he starred as a young John F. Kennedy who commanded a torpedo boat in the Pacific World War II theater, that brought him success and universal recognition.
Robertson won an Academy Award in 1968 for his portrayal of a mentally disabled janitor in the movie "Charly."
More recently, he played Uncle Ben Parker in the "Spider-Man" films.
Robertson was married twice and twice divorced. He had two daughters from these marriages.
