I loved him in Red Dawn, and fell in love with him in North and South:

Screen version: North & South Miniseries Books I & II are quite good. Per usual with screen adaptations, there are story lines omitted and altered for the film version. If you don't spend all your time comparing to the novels, they are very enjoyable.

Book III was horrible, disjointed, boring and Swayze wasn't in it anyway.

Yep, the role that really launched his career. My favorite of his roles, though he will always be remembered for ‘Nobody puts baby in a corner’ and Ghost.

If you have never scene North & South, run! and get a copy of the DVD. It's wonderful with a fabulous all-star cast.

Terrible news! He seemed like a good guy.

Prayers for his family.

The behind-the-scenes interviews in the DVDs were very interesting. Much better than Book III.

Awesome! Good way to remember Patrick and having a whiskey when you don’t drink whiskey sure is saying something.

God rest Patrick, and may God comfort his family.

I loved him in Ghost, the movie I watched again and again to get over the death of my beloved grandmother.

When you have Ca, and your chart now suddenly has ‘ES’ on your various maladies, you definitely think differently. Ask me how I know.
