sexual identity (Mon Oct 9, 2006 11:50am ET)report post
by Sebastian
Anthony Perkins himself admitted that he had been exclusively homosexual until his late thirties. I think he was extremly unsure about his sexual identity. Otherwise he would have had sexual experice with women in his youth. He confessed, namely, that he lost his virginity at the age of 27, in 1959.

Anthony Perkins was and will always be a great actor (Wed Jul 19, 2006 3:01am ET)report post

Anthony Perkins was and will always be not only a Great actor, but a wonderful, nice, good hearted, caring, kind, and generous man. The time that I met him and spoke to him on the phone will always be a great memory for me. Berry Perkins and the kids were even nice enough to invite me to Tony's memorial service at their home. I feel honored to have been the only fan to have been invited. It meant a lot. Anthony will very much be missed. He made so many great films and will always live on in film around the world. He was an amazing actor with an amazing talent. From Broadway, to TV, to film, he did it all and it did it like no one else, he was such a great talent. I hope that you and Berry are together and at peace. You both are so loved and missed. Thanks for giving the world Oz and Elvis Perkins, they will continue the family name.

ANTHONY PERKINS IS BY FAR ONE OF THE GREATEST ACTORS IN MY EYES. HIS DEATH IN 1992 TOOK ME BY SURPRISE, CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT HIS PERSONAL LIFE, AND HIS BATTLE WITH AIDS. I NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO SEE ANY OF HIS OLDER MOVIES BESIDES "PSYCHO". I LOVE THE "PSYCHO" MOVIES ALL OF THEM DISPITE THE CRITICS REVIEW OF THE SEQUELS. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED, AND I THANK GOD THAT HIS SON CAN CARRY ON THE LEGACY THAT HIS FATHER LEFT BEHIND.

.....What a tragic ending for Perkins and his wife. I liked him VERY much as an actor! I hope their son Osgood is doing well after losing his parents in such tragic ways.

PERKINS-THE BEST (Sun Jan 18, 2004 7:15am ET)report post

ANTHONY PERKINS IS BY FAR THE GREATEST ACTOR OF HIS GENERATION, HIS DEATH IN 1992 STOLE A VERY GREAT TALENT.
HIS MOVIES ARE EXCELLENT AND HIS PERFORMANCES CAN NOT BE MATCHED. "PSYCHO III" WAS FANTASTIC, ALL THE BETTER BECAUSE HE DIRECTED IT.
THANK GOD WE HAVE OZ PERKINS TO CARRY ON HIS FATHER'S LEGACY AND TALENT.

Mr. Perkins, in my opinion, was one of the great actors of our time. It is truly regretable that his life was cut short by such a horrable disease like AIDS, for I'm sure he would have gone on to do many more wonderful works.

His like is very rare and we are probably destined never to see a man, let alone an actor like him again.

God be with his son, Oz Perkins.
