Ferrer died Monday at his ranch near Santa Barbara, family spokesman Mike Mena said.

"It's a sad occasion, but he did live a long and productive life," Mena told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

Ferrer's most impressive film role came in 1953 in "Lili." He played a rippled carnival puppeteer with whom a French orphan (played by Leslie Caron) falls in love.

1. I really like him as Andre in War and Peace

I can't believe he was 90... he must have been a bit older than Audrey. Rest in peace...

3. Quite a bit older, Audrey was born in 1929

same year as my Mom. He was also married many, many times, 5 or 6, I think. Lili is one of my favorite movies, not on DVD yet.
