R.I.P. Sydney Pollack

Just found out... there are only a few of his films that really stand out for me (The Swimmer could be my fave of his), but of course you all may know him for his work on One Six Right.

He seemed like the kind of hangar neighbor anybody would want...and a good high-profile supporter of GA.

Very sad that he suffered as he did; I didn't even know he was ill.

I didn't know one of his sons died in a plane crash! He will be missed.
