I liked his early work, but he lost me when he played the queer in Boogie Nights.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

My day is ruined-—I loved him and would see anything he was in.

A great actor.

He was really good as Freddy Miles in The Talented Mr Ripley, with Jude Law and Matt Damon. Oh and Gwyneth.

He’s admitted to heroin addiction previously. Supposedly, there is a mix of heroin and Fentanyl out there. It has been causing deaths in the MD and PA areas. He may have gotten his hands on some of it.

I only watched a few of his films, but he was very good.

Sorry to see addiction claim another, he knew the rules, I guess fame and fortune isn’t all we think it might be. Guess he was a tortured soul.

He was great as Artie Howe, though I always wondered if he was just being himself there.

Noooo! I loved him in The Talented Mr. Ripley and Mission Impossible: 3. How awful. And he did a great job in Capote.

There is an epidemic of heroin problems in the country. You can go to your local Obit page in the paper and on line and see young people dying from heroin. It never says junky died because he switched suppliers and did not know the quality but that is what much of it is. You can probably get heroin with in a few miles of your house without any issue. Also look at the uptick in petty crimes and break ins in your area. Many of them are also related to drugs.

Very sad loss.

Wonder where the heroin is coming from.
