Tribute To Sydney Pollack
I woke up this morning to another Hollywood legend having left the world. The Talented Mr. Pollack has forever changed Lanes.
His greatest moment in film in my opinion is without a doubt Tootsie. Even twenty six years later, the film still stands. Not only is the direction wonderful, but Sydney’s role as Dustin Hoffman’s agent was fabulously played. Not only is the movie great, but without Hoffman in drag could we have ever accepted Bobby De Niro as Captain Shakespeare.
He never been one of my favorites, but his accomplishments deserve every firm honor we’ve paid him. There may be a mountain of film greats, but without Sydney Pollack, it has become a little colder.
