Philip Seymour Hoffman Found Dead in NYC

[Audiophile]

I just saw this headline and was astonished.

 

I generally do not make threads like this, but the guy was an amazing actor. Just two months ago I watched Capote and The Ides of March. He gave a stellar performance, as always.

 

I thought this was another hoax at first but the reports are spreading, it's looking like it's real.

 

 

 

Award-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead Sunday afternoon in his New York City apartment, a law-enforcement official said.

The New York Police Department is investigating, and the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner to determine exact cause of death. The official said Mr. Hoffman, 46 years old, was found dead at his apartment at 35 Bethune St. in the West Village neighborhood of Manhattan.

Mr. Hoffman won the Academy Award for Best Actor for the 2005 film, "Capote."
