He was so talented and gave us such pleasure watching and listening to him. It's so sad that he didn't see the joy in life.

Everything!! "All About Eve", "The Picture of Dorian Gray", "Rebecca". The Saint movies, and of course, Shere Khan in "The Jungle Book". George Sanders was such a delightfully wicked snob in his movies; if he was in a scene, it was His.

When GEORGE SANDERS committed suicide in 1972, his infamous note read: "Dear World, I am leaving because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck." Sanders is just one of the great character stars

He was such a great actor and that voice! So many childhood (and daughter's now) memories of his distinctive voice.

George was a great actor that was not given the projects worthy of his talent, much like Hedy Lamarr.

Nobody can judge anybody, who knows what troubles George Sanders had in he's life, to do such a think as to take he's own life. RIP George Sanders....

He was a great actor! Loved his voice!

It's tragic he felt this way. Nothing is so awful that one should feel the need for suicide. George was a great actor with an unmistakable voice--a purr like quality about it.

He was one of my favorite old stars. "I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck."

George Sanders was a brilliant actor....I read somewhere that he actually had started to have symptoms of dementia in his last few years, along with a stroke. That coupled with the fact that his last marriage had failed, he was indeed depressed. Such a sad end to such a shining star...✨

Great actor with a distinctive voice. He was unsurpassed playing the consummate gentleman, but I find his deliciously fiendish Addison DeWitt in All About Eve one of my favorite of his roles.

I think depression comes to many people sad no one could see it and help. He was fablous and unforgettable

George Sanders’ suicide note: "Dear World, I am leaving because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck."

Sanders was known for his roles in several Hitchcock films, The Saint series, and as "Mr. Freeze" on TV's Batman. In his later years, he suffered from dementia and a minor stroke. On April 23, 1972, he checked into a hotel near Barcelona, reportedly wrote three suicide notes, and swallowed five bottles of the barbiturate Nembutol.

Tragic end to a fairly brilliant actor. Always convincing when he played somewhat charming, debonair but oily villains. :)

Wonderful silky smooth actor

Great actor. He could play both good and evil. I loved him in Call Me Madam something completely different from his usual roles. I have his autobiography and it’s a great read.

"The Perfect Cad"...read it years ago, when I use to read a ton of biographies for tv show prep.

Cliff

Great actor. The saint series of movies were top notch. Memoirs of a professional cad. His autobiography is a great read.

Don

i like him. I dont know if I would call him a, 'great' actor but I find him very watchable. I respect him for how he left this world. that's how he said he was going to do it and, by jingo, that's how he did it. I totally get why he said he was going to do it (although I have read up on why he eventually did do it), and I plan to go in a similar way :P

I was crazy about him! If there’s ever a movie on TCM with George Sanders, that’s all I need to know. His delivery of the English language was magnificent!!

He was a very good actor. In his last years his health, both mentality and physicality were in decline. He suffered from deep depression and was in constant pain. He embed it. Sad.

George Sanders made every film better just because of his witty, urbane presence. He was the best of the best! Loved him in “Rebecca”, “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir”, and the magnificent “All About Eve”. Happy Birthday to one of the legends of classic Hollywood!

Favorite line from George Sanders lips...” You’re too short for that gesture” when Eve tries to show him out the door. Perfect sarcasm. Wasn’t he just delicious?
