I find it a touching and happy fact that all five principals of this iconic, fifty-year-old movie - Beatty, Dunaway, Hackman, Pollard, Parsons - are still around today. Indeed, of the nine credited speaking roles in the film, Evans Evans who played Velma is still living, too. Only Gene Wilder, Dub Taylor and Denver Pyle have passed on.
How many other movies of this era or earlier can make this claim? Sadly, there can't be too many...

That's an interesting point. Things that make you go hmm.

Michael J. Pollard died yesterday, age 80. RIP.

Thanks for the update @genplant29. Sad to say goodbye to Pollard.
Which leaves four. I do wonder if there is an older film with the majority of it’s all-adult principal cast still alive.

I'm surprised to see (I just now calculated) that Estelle Parsons turned 92 on Nov. 20, thus just the other day. (I've been watching the current season, and last year watched Season 1, of The Conners, and Miss Parsons looks and seems sharp as a tack, and appears to be doing superbly; I'd never guess, watching that series, that she's any age beyond early 80s!) Gene Hackman is now 89, Warren Beatty is 82, and Faye Dunaway is a mere lass at 78. So, "the gang" is definitely up there in age now.
Rather surprising that it was one of the youngest - Michael Pollard, 80 - of the primary cast members who went first.
