Who should have been on our Centenarians thread. Until now, obviously. Possibly missed because Wikipedia's list doesn't include him and he doesn't have an entry there.

The latest edition of DGA Monthly notes the death of Leo C. Popkin (1912-2011), who directed independent movies as early as 1938, including the film noir The Well (1951; co-directed by Russell Rouse). Popkin also produced D.O.A. (1949) with his older brother Harry Popkin.

That's terrible. Is there a better location for an obituary available yet?

Not that I can find besides other local news sites picking up TMZ's story. I'm sure a proper obit will surface soon, I'll post it if/when I come across it.

EDIT: AV Club obit.

Driving at 132 to 140 mph, with a BAC of .196. The jokes write themselves, but it's too bad they're not funny. I'm glad that you and mfunk were not on the road when this happened.
