[Update: Actress Jane Russell, star of Howard Hughes' 'The Outlaw,' dies at 89] [Services are set for 11 a.m. March 12 at Pacific Christian Church, 3435 Santa Maria Way, Santa Maria. Instead of flowers, her family suggests donations in her name to Care Net Pregnancy & Resource Center, 121 W. Battles, Santa Maria, CA 93458; or CASA of Santa Barbara County, 120 E. Jones Street, Ste. 130, Santa Maria, CA 93454.] The Times has received word that Jane Russell has died at the age of 89. An obituary is in the works. More details to come…. ALSO |
The rarely screened “Young Widow” will be shown on Turner Classic Movies in the U.S. on June 21 (the channel released its June schedule Monday). It’s part of what had been planned as a Jane Russell 90th birthday celebration — TCM has been running Russell films on that date for several years now — but will now serve as a memorial. (The channel will likely run a few of her films later this month as a quickly-arranged tribute.)
