Among the last projects completed by legendary actor Tony Curtis, who died Wednesday at age 85, was a 2008 documentary about his life with wife Jill VanderBerg Curtis.
"The Jill & Tony Curtis Story," which debuted at the Montreal World Film Festival in August 2008, followed the couple as they worked in their Las Vegas home and at Tony's private art studio in Nevada and attended such events as a slaughter auction in Utah and a celebrity convention in Los Angeles.
