Sydney Pollack has diedSydney Pollack has passed away.

The legendary film director (Tootsie, Out of Africa, The Way We Were) passed away at his Pacific Palisades home on Monday after losing a battle to cancer.  The filmmaker, a two-time Oscar-winner, was 73.  Pollack recently worked with George Clooney on Michael Clayton, which Pollack acted in and helped produce, and Leatherheads, which he executive produced.  Pollack, as a producer, likewise was busy, and  had a number of films in the offing, including The Reader, an upcoming Ralph Fiennes-Kate Winslet romantic drama.  He will be sorely missed in Hollywood.
