For our first Zeitgeist '25! online gathering we cast a look back at the movie people who took their final bows during 2024. It's a strong roster of filmmakers who went to the big wrap party in the sky, from definitive actors such as James Earl Jones, Donald Sutherland, Gena Rowlands, and Maggie Smith, to specialized performers who embodied their time: Shelley Duvall, Bob Newhart, Teri Garr. Seattle's own music legend Quincy Jones left us, and we'll also recall the music and presence of Kris Kristofferson. And you better believe there'll be an RIP for Roger Corman, B-movie mogul extraordinaire.
