Someone literally just asked me this down the hall. I couldn't believe it. The fact that I went to the Fourum to find info on it says something sad and kind of funny about me.

Sorry - did not see this before (as in wrong section, not that that matters). Am fucking gutted about this and fucked off with myself that I never wrote to him to tell him how great he was and how much I appreciated Brokeback Mountain.

This is such a waste. I really think he might have been one of the all-time greats some day.

I'm gobsmacked. In fact, it's so unbelievably out of the blue, I'm still not entirely convinced this isn't another Dark Knight publicity stunt

I'm shocked. I feel like I can't breathe and I didn't even know the guy. He's barely older than I am and our daughters are 3 weeks to the day different in age. He was so talented. :(

I'm as shocked and saddened by this as the rest of you, but I'm also angry at him. Why do so many talented and successful people throw it all away on drugs? If he had been killed in a car accident, he would have at least kept his dignity.

He had pneumonia and had been having trouble sleeping and had OTC and prescription meds in his home. He died of a cardiac arrest. Hopefully he did not die at his own hand, by either negligence or purpose.

If I had pneumonia I'd give serious consideration to cancelling my masseuse appointment.

How about you guys?

If it was an accident, as some people claim, then I apologize for expressing anger at his "throwing his life away on drugs." However, I'm still skeptical of the claim that it was an accident. I haven't ever heard of anybody who died of accidentally overdosing on sleeping pills.
