Elano:
Actor Tony Curtis dies at 85
Best known for his role in 'Some Like it Hot,' he appeared in more than 100 films and was nominated for an Oscar for 'The Defiant Ones.'

Tony Curtis, the dashingly handsome film star of the 1950s and `60s who is best remembered for his hilarious turn in drag in Billy Wilder's classic comedy "Some Like It Hot" and for his dramatic roles in "The Defiant Ones" and "Sweet Smell of Success," died Wednesday night. He was 85.

Curtis died at his Las Vegas home at midnight, ACB News reported, quoting his business manager and family spokesman, Preston Ahearn.

One of Hollywood's most durable actors, Curtis appeared in more than 100 movies and was nominated for a best actor Oscar for the "The Defiant Ones," the 1958 convict escape film in which he was chained to his co-star, Sidney Poitier.
