CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Deadline Hollywood reports:

Yvette Mimieux was found dead Tuesday morning, a rep for her family confirmed. She had just turned 80 on January 8, and she passed away in her sleep of natural causes.

Mimieux was a prolific actress best remembered for starring opposite Rod Taylor in the 1960 George Pal-directed film version of the H.G. Wells novel The Time Machine at MGM, where she was soon put under a long-term contract. Another big hit came months after in Where the Boys Are.

There won’t be a memorial service. Mimieux was very private about her personal life while alive, and it will be the same in death.
