No mention is made as to whether he divorced from his first and/or second wives, or if they left him, or if they died, or whatever. Is he now married to three women? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 ( talk) 21:27, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
On the web, I just saw this, and I recall seeing the idea that Belafonte play Clemente (and was that just after Clemente died in a plane crash?):
" „Sometimes people stop me in the street and ask me eef I am Harry Belafonte. When I say no, they get mad and walk away.“ — Roberto Clemente Source: https://quotepark.com/quotes/1774378-roberto-clemente-sometimes-people-stop-me-in-the-street-and-ask-me/ " Carlm0404 ( talk) 05:05, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
I’m not sure why this was necessary to become a topic at the talk page, but I guess it needs to be. I find having the statement “final film role” in the filmography table next to BlacKkKlansman entirely superfluous due to the obviousness that it was his last role. If he was still alive and had made a declaration of retirement that’s one thing, but with his passing and him having no new film roles ever again, it goes without saying it’s the final film role and doesn’t need to be noted as such. Had it been posthumous, that’s also another thing but we’d have likely put it as “posthumous release”. @ North8000: I don’t see how it being superfluous is original research. He’s objectively passed away, and it’s objectively his final role. Rusted AutoParts 14:18, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
