Sci-Fi Director Bert I. Gordon Passes Away at 100

With Bert I. Gordon in April 2010.

Bert I. Gordon, the legendary director of numerous sci-fi films from the 1950s through the '70s, passed away on March 8 at the age of 100. I don't have much to add here, except that I met him once in April 2010 at a convention in Los Angeles. I was excited to meet him, as his I grew up with several of his films.

Our meeting, however, was rather disappointing. He seemed disconnected and uninterested, even though I bought his book, which I thought should've earned me at least some fake enthusiasm. He smiled for our pictures, though, but that was all. Still, I guess I'm glad that I met him, but that's about all there is to say. 

RIP.
