RIP Sydney Pollack
One of Hollywood’s gentlemen and true Director’s has just passed away in his home from cancer.
From the ABC News feed…
Famed actor-director Sydney Pollack has died from cancer at the age of 73.
Spokeswoman Leslee Dart told Reuters that Pollack died at his home in the coastal Los Angeles suburb of Pacific Palisades at 5:00pm (local time).
He was surrounded by his family.
Ms Dart said Pollack was diagnosed with cancer about 10 months ago.
Doctors were never able to determine the primary source of the disease, she added.
Pollack had devoted more time to producing and acting of late, and is currently in theatres playing Patrick Dempsey’s father in the romantic comedy Made Of Honour.
I will never forget the impact Out of Africa made on me - in fact when I hear that same music - my eyes moisten. Another great of his is Tootsie. He went on to produce some great films and appear as an actor in both film and TV.
