Icons we mourn: Sydney Pollack

I'm not sure when I first fell for Sydney Pollack. On reviewing his oeuvre, he was involved in so many of my favourite things, on screen or behind the camera, that it is hard to know where to begin.

I'd have loved him forever if "Out of Africa" were his only accomplishment. He will be sorely missed.

I was very saddened by this.

Picture it, a slightly chilly morning on the African savannah, looking out over the rim of the coulee the sun just peeks out over the horizon, warm, glowing. Through the mist, a silhouette in the distance, just forming, tugs your breath right out of your chest. As it comes into focus, you know it is she. Beautiful, of course. Brilliant, to be sure. Poised, needless to say. And very, very well-dressed. You are in the fabulous girl's world, now.
