Kirk Douglas, longtime influential movie star, dies at 103

BY , Feb 6, 2020 1:16 AM - REPORT AN ERROR

Kirk Douglas, the muscular actor with the dimpled chin who starred in ``Spartacus,'' ``Lust for Life'' and dozens of other films and helped fatally weaken the Hollywood blacklist, has died at 103, his family announced.

Douglas was nominated three times for Oscars _ for ``Champion,'' ``The Bad and the Beautiful'' and ``Lust for Life.''

He later received an honorary award for ``50 years as a creative and moral force'' in the movie industry.

His son Michael won Oscars as producer for ``One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'' and as actor for ``Wall Street.''
