Sylvia Miles: Last News

Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara raised their children, Amy and Ben, has entered contract after hitting the market for $5 million in July.Back then, Ben — who is working on a documentary about his late parents that will include his childhood home at 118 Riverside Drive — told the New York Times that he remembered Thanksgiving dinners with Rodney Dangerfield and various other gatherings with guests including William Hurt, Sylvia Miles and Francis Ford Coppola. (Jerry Stiller, 92, died in 2020; Meara, 85, died in 2015.) The siblings played with other kids in the building, including those of the artist Peter Max, and loved to cause trouble like tossing water balloons out the apartment’s windows.

Goldie Hawn still regrets missing her Oscar moment. On the evening of April 7, 1970, the budding 25-year-old actress, with just two film credits to her name, was half a world away from the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles when Fred Astaire opened an envelope and read her name as the best supporting actress winner for “Cactus Flower.” Instead of basking in the glow of television history, the “Laugh-In” star was sound asleep in London as an early call time loomed for her next film, “There’s a Girl in My Soup,” opposite Peter Sellers. Hawn, now 77, is sitting in front of a fire in a woodpaneled study in her Pacific Palisades home as she recalls those few seconds that changed the trajectory of her life but that she never experienced firsthand. Throughout her trailblazing career, which includes such classics as “Foul Play,” “Private Benjamin,” “Overboard” and “The First Wives Club,” Hawn has created no shortage of indelible characters and experienced many artistic triumphs. But if she could get one do-over, she would haul her ass to that 1970 ceremony.
