Here at latimes.com, we have a running picture gallery of notable deaths for the year.

Turner Classic Movies also compiles a lovely tribute package, studded with movie stars and streaming clips drawn from its trove of film treasures. The big names are all here -- Dennis Hopper, Lena Horne, Tony Curtis and Patricia Neal -- as well as a trio from ‘Airplane!’ -- Peter Graves, Barbara Billingsley and Leslie NIelsen. The images fade in and out to the tune of Sophie Hunger’s ‘Headlights.’

You can watch it on the network’s website or on YouTube, where you can also check out the remembrance clips from previous years.
