Renal Cancer
She died of renal cancer: she didn't have liver cancer, she had kidney cancer that metastasized to her liver. -- Someone else 00:20 Feb 12, 2003 (UTC)


 * This correction seems to be valid, but needs a more authoritative source either way. I've removed the mention of "liver cancer" from the article for now since only WP seems to make that claim. Sources not quoting WP don't seem to mention "liver cancer." The year before her death, the LA Times, in an article titled Lee Remick Victor Over Cancer reported as follows:


 * Other articles corroborate:


 * Some articles implicate smoking and lung cancer as the initial incidence, but I can't find a reliable source for this in a quick web search. Overall, a better source is needed. David Spector (user/talk) 21:16, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

Hefner song
I can't believe no one has mentioned the Hefner song entitled "Lee Remick."

Here are the lyrics. Discuss?

Lee Remick

I think it was in ’83 my father left the family, But came back three weeks later for a love both firm and stable. I think it was in ’91 that Lee Remick died…… The sibling rivalry between my sister and me turned into the strongest branch of our family tree. When I was young I dreamt of Lee Remick, She had a ring upon each finger, she was smiling all the while. Her hair was just long enough so it bounced upon her shoulders, She said she always spoke the truth. My Father let me down but I so easily forgave him, And I know the home wrecker has a place within his heart. I used to blame my mother for each and every failure, And how Lee Remick’s eyes sparkled that brilliant blue. He looked just like a Jonathon but he said his name was Ashley, He was my best friend till he drank so much his heart sank And all my pretty friends who just grew up and failed and what if I fail? What if I’ve failed already? Those filthy little angels tugging at my heart saying ‘boredom is a sin, ambition should be everything’

'Wait Until Dark' performance
I had just gotten out of the Marines in 1966, and still qualified to get orchestra seats on Broadway to see Wait Until Dark from the USO. I was lucky to see the gripping performance of a beautiful woman. I mused, I would never forget those eyes; and I have not. Her performance on stage was superior to the movie rendition.

I seem to remember that Lee Remick played in a made-for-television movie entitled The Last Summer co-starring with Hal Holbrook and a young Martin Sheen. The story line is of a same-sex couple one of whom is a divorcee (Hal Holbrook)whose young son comes and visits his father every summer. The boy runs away when, the last summer, he realizes that his father's roommate is a man (Martin Sheen). It was a very subtle and beautiful film-- made well before its time-- of which I find no trace anywhere! Can anyone help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.239.182.157 (talk) 18:57, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

I seem to remember that Lee Remick played in a made-for-television film entitled The Last Summer along with Hal Holbrook and a younger Martin Sheen. It is a very subtle and beautiful film about a same sex couple one of whom (Holbrook) is a divorcee. His son comes and visits his father every summer until the "last one" when he runs away after realizing that his father's roommate is another man (Sheen). The father has to call his ex-wife and the boy's mother (Lee Remick)to help find their son and take him home. I cannot find the movie listed anywhere...Maybe I got the title wrong? Can somebody help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vtpj (talk • contribs) 19:09, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

That movie is "That Certain Summer," and the mother was played by Hope Lange. Lee Remick was not in the cast. Rich (talk) 22:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Picture
Suggest you have a look at her picture in the german Wikipedia. It shows a very nice person ... as should be, considering her fate. The image here doesn't do her credit. Might want to use the other one or show both. If in doubt have a look at her in "Telephone" where she co-stars with Charles Bronson. Just my personal opinion of course.
