reports out there that tony scott has killed himself
fuck
Seriously messed up.
Terrible, stunning. It's the sort of news that I can see not really sinking in for a while with me.
Holy shit. Flashed across my phone and I actually gasped.
Woah. Rest in peace Tony. My condolences to his family and Ridley.
Wow. We just started watching Numbers last night. Man. That's crazy sad.
From what I know, he wasn't exactly extensively profiled. He was only ever really taken seriously in the past decade. He graduated from art school to do abstract painting, but ended up in film. His approach to film was a lot like a John Ford or Howard Hawks. He didn't seem to have any obscure theories in his head when filming; just a desire to entertain.
He was married with two kids. I assume he's fine with Ridley since they kept producing TV shows together.
Sad and confusing. Apparently he jumped in the middle of the day? Deadline reports that the cops and coroner aren't confirming anything, just that he's dead.
His kids are still young. I don't get it.
I guess they now think he had an inoperable brain tumor?
Hell of a newsflash to wake up to. Fuck :sad:
Its really a damn shame. I've always been a fan of The Last Boy Scout, and I rather enjoy and like Top Gun, Enemy of the State and True Romance. RIP.
Wow. I heard it on the radio this morning driving to work and my mouth was probably dropped open for like, five minutes. Not a fan of his films but that's sad and bizarre.
