Farley Granger Dies at 85

 


Farley Granger, who starred in the Alfred Hitchcock classic film 'Strangers on a Train,' died Monday, according to E! Online. He was 85.


Though his role in 1951's 'Strangers on a Train' is by far his most memorable, Granger was no stranger to other parts. He made his debut in Hitchcock's 'Rope' in 1948, Nicholas Ray's 'They Ride by Night' in 1949 and Luchino Visconti's Italian drama 'Senso' in 1954.


He also starred in 1955's 'The Naked Street' and 'The Girl on the Red Velvet Swing' in 1955 but then focused more on theater and television roles.


The actor penned a candid memoir, 'Include Me Out: My Life From Goldwyn to Broadway' in 2008, chronicling his time as a leading man in Hollywood during the 1950s, as well as many of his close personal relationships.


According to his book, he had romantic relationships with both men and women, including Ava Gardner, Patricia Neal, Leonard Bernstein and Arthur Laurents. He began a relationship with soap opera producer Robert Calhoun in 1963, however, and stayed with him until Calhoun's death three years ago.
