that he will make a full recovery...

In that case good. Because I reckon he has a few good films
left in him.

Nah Key, it is at the top of the BBC news site saying more
info to follow soon.

Mind you the fuckers got enough money to be able to afford
the kind of treatment poorer folk would be denied - leading
them to die while a moderately good actor who hasn't had to
do a hard days work in years lives on...this world is fucked
up.

yeah, he should really just go without treatment and die,
that'd be a hell of a lot
better...........................................

i would say not, my father a hardworking poor folk, got it a
few years back, had surgery and survieved, really, i know
your point, but make it more clear.

the key to any healthy life is regular check-ups and
insurance... so there.

deniro, is fucking brill btw, he is an actor, ie not just a
lazy slob who sits about picking his nose waiting to die.
this guy has worked his ass off to be where he is, so what
if he is filthy rich, big fucking deal... he can afford to
survive, it's the ways of nature.

Prospects of recovery are good. Although if he makes another
film with Billy Crystal

actually I won't finish that sentence

No, I was thinking that I should be no more concerned for
him than I should be for anyone else. Even with charity
hospitals the level of care and drugs available to those
patients is a lot less than if they were self funding.

ifcardo I am pleased everything worked out OK for your
father, but there are documented cases here where if the
doctors/hospital feel the cost of treatment outweigh the
potential for cure they choose not to administer medication.
This is a purely financial decision and I am sure the same
thing goes on world wide.

Zaphod your comment was just fucking stupid and misses my
point entirely, if you don't have anything useful to add
stay the fuck out of any topics I make.

Can anyone remember when De Niro last did any real acting?
He's been sitting scratching his ass for the past 20 years.
No wonder he's got cancer.

all apologies for my comment.
really though, chill out a bit.
and deniro has done some ok acting as of late, nothing
spectacular. i kind of like the way hes becoming a pretty
laid back character actor at this point, but i'd still like
to see a great performance out of him in the future.

What I would most like to see is him and Martin Scorsese
(and Joe Pesci and the rest of the old gang) collaborating
once again. Their collaborations have always been more than
the sum of their parts: Taxi Driver, Raging Bull,
Goodfellas, Casino etc.

But De Niro seems to be more interested in doing comedy
these days.

theres a guy who hasn't had a good role in awhile.

True, true. I haven't seen him kickin in the good 'ol Pacino
Charisma since The Insider.

But I think the last real good role I've seen him
play was in Scent of a Woman and that was at least ten years
ago.

He seems to be professionally in a similar situation as De
Niro these days.

But I do think they both still have a few killer roles in
them. We'll just have to wait and see.

that one film. You MUST.

this is true. i think the problem is that they're getting
typecast - plain and simple. it happens to a lot of actors.
i think the main reason Pacino and De Niro have been
pursuing other, while less entertaining, roles, they do this
to show they at least have some versatility.

Before I found out it was prostrate cancer he had I was
going to make a comment about how I heard he's got a small
penis.

ol rob takes too many bad roles,

he is a fucking good actor, I hope he makes it through, and
say to himself "life is short, from now on I won't take any
shit roles"
