R.I.P. Harry Redmond, Jr.











A sad farewell to Harry Redmond, Jr., who has passed away at the amazing age of 101.














Among his work in many other films, he was one of the pioneering special effects wizards on the original 1933 King Kong, which for me is the greatest motion picture ever made.

Thanks for the magic, Harry.

  1. Martin, that is a special loss to me too. I just reviewed his bio....wow some of my favorite films on top of the best of the best, Kong: he worked on Only Angels have Wings, Lost Horizons, She, and later on even Sea Hunt Tv shows.....Almost everything he worked on is in my favorites of viewing.....a sad loss for sure.
