Sadly, this past week marked the passing of directorial great Sydney Pollack. So many of his films are classic. My favorites being the Robert Redford political thriller Three Days of the Condor, The Swimmer which is based on a John Cheever short story and stars Burt Lancaster, and the classic drag dressing comedy Tootsie starring Dustin Hoffman and Jessica Lange.
He was also a superb actor particularly as the philandering husband of Judy Davis who begins dating an aerobics instructor in Woody Allen's Husbands and Wives.
All his obituaries remark on his talents and his generous and unpretentious nature.
