Sydney Irwin Pollack (July 1, 1934 – May 26, 2008) was
an American film director, producer, and actor.
Pollack directed more than 20 films and 10 television shows,
acted in over 30 films or shows, and produced over 44 films.
His 1985 film Out of Africa won him Academy Awards
for directing and producing; he was also nominated
for Best Director Oscars for They Shoot Horses,
Don't They? (1969) and Tootsie (1982) in which he also appeared.
Some of his other best known works include
Jeremiah Johnson (1972), The Way We Were (1973),
Three Days of the Condor (1975) and Absence of Malice (1981).
His subsequent films included Havana (1990), The Firm (1993),
The Interpreter (2005), and he produced and acted
in Michael Clayton (2007).
[Early life]
Sydney Pollack was born in Lafayette, Indiana,
to a family of Russian Jewish immigrants,
the son of Rebecca (née Miller) and David Pollack,
a semi-professional boxer and pharmacist.
The family relocated to South Bend and his parents
divorced when he was young. His mother, who suffered
from alcoholism and emotional problems, died at the age
of 37 while Pollack was a student.
Despite earlier plans to attend college and then medical school,
Pollack left Indiana for New York City soon after
finishing high school at age 17.
Pollack studied acting with Sanford Meisner
at the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre
from 1952–54, working on a lumber truck between terms.
After two years army service, ending in 1958,
he returned to the Playhouse at Meisner’s invitation
to become his assistant. In 1960, John Frankenheimer,
a friend of Pollack, asked him to come to Los Angeles
in order to work as a dialogue coach for the child actors on
Frankenheimer's first big picture, The Young Savages.
It was during this time that Pollack met Burt Lancaster
who encouraged the young actor to try directing.
[Career]
Pollack played a director in The Twilight Zone episode
"The Trouble with Templeton" in 1961. But he found his
real success in television in the 1960s by directing
episodes of series, such as The Fugitive and
The Alfred Hitchcock Hour.
After doing TV he made the jump into film with
a string of movies that drew public attention.
His film-directing debut was The Slender Thread (1965).
Over time, Pollack's films received a total of 48 Academy Award
nominations, winning 11 Oscars. His first Oscar nomination
was for his 1969 film They Shoot Horses, Don't They?,
and his second in 1982 for Tootsie.
For his 1985 film Out of Africa starring Meryl Streep
and Robert Redford, Pollack won Academy Awards
for directing and producing.
During his career, he directed 12 different actors
in Oscar-nominated performances: Jane Fonda,
Gig Young, Susannah York, Barbra Streisand,
Paul Newman, Melinda Dillon, Jessica Lange,
Dustin Hoffman, Teri Garr, Meryl Streep, Klaus Maria
Brandauer and Holly Hunter. Only Young and
Lange won Oscars for their performances in one of Pollack's films.
His disputes with Hoffman during the filming of Tootsie
became well known. Eventually Hoffman began pushing
the idea that Pollack play the role of his agent,
and Pollack reluctantly agreed despite not having had
any film roles in 20 years.
Their off-screen relationship added authenticity to
their scenes in the movie, most of which feature them arguing.
Pollack subsequently took on more acting roles
in addition to producing and directing.
He appeared as himself in the documentary
One Six Right, describing his joy in owning and piloting
his Cessna Citation X jet aircraft.
One of a select group of non- and/or former actors
awarded membership in The Actors Studio, Pollack resumed
acting in the 1990s with appearances in such films
as The Player (1992) and Eyes Wide Shut (1999),
often playing corrupt or morally conflicted power figures.
As a character actor, Pollack appeared in films such as
A Civil Action, and Changing Lanes, as well as his own,
including Random Hearts and The Interpreter
(the latter also being his final film as a director).
He also appeared in Woody Allen's Husbands and Wives
as a New York lawyer undergoing a midlife crisis,
and in Robert Zemeckis's Death Becomes Her as an
emergency room doctor. His last role was as
Patrick Dempsey's father in the 2008 romantic comedy Made
of Honor, which was playing in theaters at the time
of his death. He was a recurring guest star
on the NBC sitcom Will & Grace, playing Will Truman's
(Eric McCormack) unfaithful but loving father, George Truman.
In addition to earlier appearances on NBC's Just Shoot Me
and Mad About You, in 2007, Pollack made guest appearances
on the HBO TV series The Sopranos and Entourage.
Pollack received the first annual Extraordinary Contribution
to Filmmaking award from the Austin Film Festival
on October 21, 2006. As a producer he helped to guide many
films that were successful with both critics and movie audiences,
such as The Fabulous Baker Boys, The Talented Mr. Ripley,
and Michael Clayton, a film in which he also starred
opposite George Clooney, and for which he received
his sixth Academy Award nomination, in the Best Picture category.
He formed a production company called Mirage Enterprises' with
the English director Anthony Minghella. The last film they produced
together, The Reader, earned them both posthumous Oscar
nominations for Best Picture. Besides his many feature film laurels,
Pollack was nominated for five Primetime Emmys, earning two -one for
directing in 1966, and another for producing, which was given
posthumously four months after his death in 2008.
The moving image collection of Sydney Pollack is housed
at the Academy Film Archive.
[Influences]
In the 2002 Sight and Sound Directors' Poll,
Pollack revealed his top ten films: Casablanca, Citizen Kane,
The Conformist, The Godfather Part II, Grand Illusion,
The Leopard, Once Upon a Time in America,
Raging Bull, The Seventh Seal, and Sunset Boulevard.
[Family]
Pollack's brother, Bernie, is a costume designer,
producer, and actor.
Pollack was married to Claire Bradley Griswold,
a former student of his, from 1958 until his death in 2008.
They had three children: Steven (1959), Rebecca (1963),
and Rachel (1969). In 1993, Steven died at the age
of 34 in the crash of a small, single-engine plane
which clipped a power line and burst into flames.
Claire, Polack's wife, died on March 28, 2011
at 74 years of age, due to Parkinson's Disease.
[Death]
Concerns about Pollack's health surfaced in 2007,
when he withdrew from directing HBO's television
film Recount, which aired on May 25, 2008.
Pollack died the next day at his home in Los Angeles
surrounded by his family who confirmed that cancer was
the cause of death but declined to provide specifics.
His body was cremated, and his ashes were scattered
along the runway at the Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles.
