Any more details available?

I would guess natural causes or sickness.

Nothing yet on CNN and Yahoo.

81 years and a passel of classic movies is a good run by any standard.

Not sure what his exact condition,but I think his Alzheimerīs reached itīs peak.He probably had little idea of the world as we know it by these times.
Well,I must confess I have not seen a single movie of his but r.i.p.

Bummer. Mr Bronson has been a citizen here since his late wife came here for cancer treatment over twenty years ago. Quiet man. Obvious Love of children. Some thought him standoffish. I found him quiet and reflective. Always lit up when there were kids around to talk to or take fishing. I'll miss him a lot.:(

He was one of my favorites.

"mother, may i have an ice cream"

"no"

"this isn't over yet"


- from the simpsons episode where thye travel to a small film festival and wind up in the town of Bronson instead of Branson.

Everybody in the town, Man women and child is a replicant of Charles bronson and the above conversation is carried out in Bronsonese by a mother and her child both in charles Bronson voices.

To make the simpsons is one of the greatest trophies and actor can carry.

He sure made enough of those death wish movies.
bye Chuck, we liked you in rawhide :-(
