Just broke on Fox - details to come.

Hopkins was great in a few films. One of my favorities was 84 Charing Cross Road. A wonderful flick. He was pretty good in Leon Uris’s QB VII, too.

Police now suspecting suicide and the apartment belongs to Mary Kate Olsen.

Guess it's time to slam Anthony Hopkins. /s

Hmmm, let's see. Hopkins was the villain in Silence of the Lambs. Apples and oranges, my friend.

“There are people on this thread actually defending this morons drug and alcohol induced death. Care to tell me how someone “accidentally” overdoses on pills and alcohol?”

I would welcome you to Free Republic, but instead I will tell you that newbies like you that insult Freepers are NOT welcome here. You are walking on thin ice.

Yeah, ya beat me to the punch.... ;)

What I am reading it sounds like she either owns the building or lives in it, too.

[vetvetdoug]

Too young to die. Unfortunate and sad...condolences to his family and friends.

[new cruelty]

I thought Buffalo Bill was the villain in Silence of the Lambs.

[Rb ver. 2.0]

He was the ~cannibal~ in Silence of the Lambs.

[mware]

RD sounds like it might have been suicide to me.

I guess he portrayed a “gay” man in this movie I didn’t bother to see and actually wasn’t so gay after all.

Does anyone notice how deaths in Hollywood seems to happen in threes, within days of each other?

[Borges]

A lot of people thought he made him sympathetic. And at the end the audience was inivted to cheer him on. Did you think The Godfather glorified the Mafia? Lolita glorified pedophillia?

There are people on this thread actually defending this morons drug and alcohol induced death.

"Defending" his death? As in, it was "justified" somehow? ROTFLMAO

Proof positive some people post without thinking.

[Sue Perkick]

It’s also uncivilized.

[nickcarraway]

I thought it was a pretty good Shakespeare adaptation.

If he was not alone at the house it is going to be an issue. It will be interesting if it was a drug overdose, if someone was there and could have called for help but did not.

The actor Heath Ledger was found dead this afternoon in an apartment in Manhattan owned by the actress Mary-Kate Olsen, according to the New York City police.

Yep. And late last night there was a video released of Amy Winehouse smoking crack. I would have expected this from her, but not Heath Ledger.

[Petronski]

Okay, I remember him now. It’s a tragedy to die so young.

If it was suicide, all the worse.
