Biography
Sydney Pollack (b. 1934, Lafayette, Indiana, USA – 2008, Los Angeles). He shot twenty films which together earned 40 Oscar nominations, many of these winning the award. As director he was himself nominated three times before receiving the statuette for Out of Africa (1985). A mention of his most famous titles – such as They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1969), Jeremiah Johnson (1972), Three Days of the Condor (1975), Tootsie (1982) and The Firm (1993) – is proof enough that his mainstream fare certainly didn't trust in average scripts; he always insisted upon psychological depth for his characters and the fitting evocation of period atmosphere. He worked with big stars and for major Hollywood studios but, as a director, he never allowed himself to be swayed by them, whatever the genre – comedies, political thrillers or romantic dramas.
