Film Director Sydney Pollack Dies at 73
Published 5/27/2008 by Jen Chung at Gothamist
The Oscar-winning director Sydney Pollack whose films include Tootsie, Out of Africa, The Way We Were and They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, died this afternoon in his Los Angeles home. The cause was cancer. Pollack grew up in Indiana and headed to New York City when he was 17, joining The Neighborhood Playhouse and studying acting under Sanford Meisner.

Hoffman is said to have begged the film-maker to take the part of his long-suffering agent in the picture, and you can see why: the pair share the sort of natural screen chemistry borne of familiarity. It can't have hurt that they ...

Sydney Pollack, 1934-2008
Published 5/27/2008 by Gary Susman at Entertainment Weekly's PopWatch
Sydney Pollack made movies for grownups. He didn't make movies about teenager-stalking slashers or CGI monsters or men in tights (well, except for Tootsie). The director, who died yesterday at 73, seems like the last of a breed, a filmmaker who specialized in old-fashioned, star-driven, sweeping romances and ...
