Forsaken Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Crazy shit, solid actor let drugs ruin his life. It's said a week before the OD he was abusing prescription pills and snorting heroin then realized he needed help. Guess he didn't get it soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyDRE Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 RIP. He was a good one.I hope this doesn't come across as disrespectful, but in another thread people are rejoicing about the legalization of marijuana. Bet a million dollars PSH's drug use started with weed. I don't care what anyone says, Marijuana is a a gateway drug. The #1 gateway drug. Many of you who smoke know this, but after awhile, you don't get high anymore, and you start to think of "other things" to catch that buzz; some people start mixing a little of this or that into their blunts, and some people just move on to something else entirely. I do not believe The War On Drugs is working, but I do not think the solution is just to legalize everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 I think Oxycodone is the gateway drug. And that is legal and widely prescribed. But this is for another thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not believe The War On Drugs is working, but I do not think the solution is just to legalize everything.There is some truth to this. I know more than a few people who have turned into addicts over the past few years, they all started out as pot heads in high school. I think it's different for everybody, but for those more prone to addiction marijuana certainly opens the doors.Before The Devil Knows You're Dead was his best lead role I saw, I'll have to check out Capote.

I'm not hiding his post because we made statements about that exact post out in the open for everyone to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sucks.Loved him in Charlie Wilson's War.I'm guilty to say that I haven't seen that or The Ides of March. Just never got around to seeing them, but heard he was great in both.A Late Quartet is the last movie I watched with him in it and he was great, and the movie itself was very good as a whole. The Master was fantastic as well. Dude is just great in any movie he's been in, really.I think the first movie I watched that really got my interested in him was Synecdoche, New York. After that I went and started downloaded any PSH movie that I hadn't seen. The Savages, Jack Goes Boating, Doubt, etc. The list went on. He was just so talented. Whether it was a role he lead in the movie, or something small like his part in Punch Drunk Love, he was just great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
