It’s last call for Schlitz, the beer that made Milwaukee famous. The Pabst Brewing Co. has confirmed it is ceasing production of the iconic lager that has quenched the thirst of American beer drinkers for 177 years.

“Unfortunately, we have seen continued increases in our costs to store and ship certain products and have had to make the tough choice to place Schlitz Premium on hiatus,” Zac Nadile, Pabst head of brand strategy, said in a statement last month to Milwaukee Magazine.

Yul Brynner’s iconic 1985 anti-smoking commercial was a public service announcement (PSA) featuring a posthumous message warning against cigarettes after he died from lung cancer. Prior to his death, with the help of the American Cancer Society, Brynner created a public service announcemen using a clip from the Good Morning America interview. A few days after his death, it premiered on all major US television networks and in other countries. Brynner used the announcement to express his desire to make an anti-smoking commercial after discovering he had cancer, and his death was imminent. He then looked directly into the camera for 30 seconds and said, "Now that I'm gone, I tell you: Don't smoke. Whatever you do, just don't smoke. If I could take back that smoking, we wouldn't be talking about any cancer. I'm convinced of that." 

Cecil B. Demille hired Brynner for The Ten Commandments (1956) to play Ramesses II opposite Charlton Heston after seeing him in the stage version of The King and I, telling Brynner backstage that he was the only person for the role. He rounded out his year with Anastasia (1956), co-starring with Ingrid Bergman. Both films were big hits and Brynner became one of the most in-demand stars in Hollywood.

Brynner's role as King Mongkut in The King and I (4,625 times on stage) became his best known. He appeared in the original 1951 production.

He reprised the role in the 1956 film version, for which he won an Academy Award as Best Actor. Brynner is one of only ten people who have won both a Tony and an Academy Award for the same role.

The show debuted 27 years ago on HBO January 1, 1999
