| As Mike said, the article here is needed. Don't confuse it with cases like "Doctor Smith", "Judge Smith", etc. However, you might read/hear something like that (i.e. Legendary Clint Eastwood) as a first mention in <journalism> register. Something like: "Legendary Clint Eastwood was also seen at the party" |
