Another one of the greats is gone. The producer, director, and actor died of cancer at 73 on Monday. He directed Tootsie, one of my favorite films of all time, and won Oscars for producing and directing Out of Africa in 1985. Most recently, he appeared in Michael Clayton as George Clooney's boss. He really was a good actor, too! I especially enjoyed his "Silence is Golden" ad for movie theaters- "Oh, I'm sorry, am I interrupting your phone call?". He will be missed.
Not a good year for the film industry, is it? Director Anthony Minghella also died recently. He and Pollack produced films together, including Cold Mountain.
