Both gone over the weekend. Tony Scott took his own life by jumping from a bridge in LA, the crystal clear voiced Scott McKenzie from general ill health complications. Let's hope that two very talented men are now at peace.

    another example of how depression can be fatal - a successful hollywood director with a loving family, for no apparent reason, throws himself off a bridge.
  • RIP to both of them.

    RIP.

    Some witnesses to the Tony Scott death said that he just pulled up at the bridge, got out, and just jumped without any hesitation.

    turns out Scott had brain cancer, inoperable. Very sad he obviously didn't want him or his family to go through it. RIP, very sad indeed.

    True Romance is one of my favourite films. Tarantinos fantastic script with Hollywood sheen added brilliantly by Scott. A great loss to cinema. Sad about the news he had cancer. Very tragic

    Very sad news, one an exciting film-maker, the other a product of his time. RIP.
