A DUI. Sigh. It's an extreme test of faith, whatever you have faith in, to read a story of two good lives taken by a drunk driver who lives.
Clark was a very interesting director. He somehow managed to direct one of my most favorite movies of all time (A CHRISTMAS STORY, though that's mostly due to my love of the work of Jean Shepherd) and one of the worst films I ever had the misfortune of seeing (I'm sorry, but BABY GENIUSES was just horrifying.) He helped define the slasher genre in the 70s, and could easily go from raunchy 80s throwback-to-the-50s comedy to heartfelt but offbeat family nostalgia.
Talent like that does not deserve to be snuffed out by a drunken idiot in an SUV.
