Best and Worst Swan Songs in Film

[batman]

Another fine exit was made by Randolph Scott with Ride the High Country. Possibly his best film, definitely his last.



Likewise Carole Lombard with the hilarious To Be Or Not To Be.



Cuban Rebel Girls was not the best film Errol Flynn could have 'chosen' to leave us with, although he was apparently rather proud of it himself.

Beware the last films of great comics.



Charlie Chaplin The Countess of Hong Kong



Laurel and Hardy Atoll K



Busrer Keaton War Italian Style (Two Men and a General)



Abott and Costello Dance with Me, Henry



Peter Sellers The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu

The World Is Not Enough wasn't Desmond Llewellyn's last film, but he made a perfect exit from the Bond series when he disappeared while talking about 'escape routes'.



His last film unfortunately was a rather dreadful German/Australian techno-thriller.

I was just about to put Vincent Price in Edward Scissorhands - but then noticed it wasn't actually. It should have been though - a wonderful cameo.

Ralph Richardson went out with a bang in Greystoke

Ah yes, I was reliving this moment with a colleague at work. Helping her move some flatpack storage boxes down to the basement I suggested we use them to slide down the stairs. Like Ralph Richardson in Tarzan was her reply!
