Today is a sad day for every actor, writer, director and fan of film across the world. Today Philip Seymour Hoffman, an actor of immeasurable talent, was taken from his family and the world.
Philip Seymour Hoffman was an actor who transformed himself in every role, be it television, film or stage; the man did it all. He was an Oscar and Tony winning actor and a true talent. Thinking back, the actor Hoffman reminded me of most was Marlon Brando... two character actors who could do more than carry a film. When they were on screen, they were the film.
Today is a sad day, indeed. All I can do is reflect on an amazing body of work left behind by a man taken too soon, due to addiction.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Philip Seymour Hoffman's family and I hope he is resting in true peace.
Mr. Hoffman,
Thank you for sharing your talent with us, if only for a brief time. You will live on through your work... forever.
