Mr. Movie is dying…

which wasn’t entirely news to me.

It’s just easy to forget he’s sick when I hear the friendly banter between him and his callers every Saturday night – some of whom call just to say hello and offer impromptu film reviews, and some of whom have questions about obscure movies for which Mr. Movie, more often than not, knows the answers right off the top of his head.

Stu Bykofsky, writing in his most recent Daily News column, pays what I think is a fitting tribute to a living legend of the airwaves.

I hope they find him a kidney in time!!

End stage renal disease is a heck of a thing to suffer through – triple ditto on finding a kidney soon.

I hope they find one for him too!
