imdb lists actors Danny Bravo as still alive and Mario Navarro as not having died, AFAWK. Horst Buchholz’ character, btw, was the third survivor: he hooked up with the village lass. Just like in the original, there were four graves for fallen heros. ---

> [@RTFirefly](#): > > Tom Hayden, the 1960s icon who helped found the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), was one of the Chicago [del]8[/del] 7, was married for a time to Jane Fonda, and served in the California state legislature for nearly two decades, [has passed away at age 76](http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/tom-hayden-anti-war-progressive-obituary). Interesting how SDS’s origins, and Hayden’s, were at the critical juncture of Boomer (college-age in '62) liberalism and labor unionism (hence Port Huron, Michigan) – and Hayden died a week or two before the last vestiges of that common ground died as well, when places exactly like Port Huron decided the fate of the Hillary Clinton presidential candidacy. ---
