In Memoriam


Yesterday, Sydney Pollack, a legendary figure both in front and behind the camera, passed away at the age of 73.

I really liked his movies, particularly The Way We Were, Tootsie, and obviously, Out of Africa, for which he received two Oscars.

I also liked him on the big screen though. He was great in Tootsie, and recently Michael Clayton, and he was one of the few good things about Eyes Wide Shut.

His talents were always on display.

We lost a great moviemaker yesterday.
