Sydney Pollack, 1934-2008

I was going to post something different about Recount, but just read that one of its executive producers, actor, Oscar-winning director and producer Sydney Pollack, died this afternoon. He was responsible for a lot of great films, and it's sad to see him go.

Here's Roger Ebert's remembrance.

You could see his TV roots in that link. Interesting that he was a director and an actor. I remember liking "they shoot horses, don't they" when it came out. I wonder if it stands up to the test of time?
