On the front page of wsj.com as well, although no story yet. Damn, that's sad... incredible actor.
 
Being reported as a drug overdose and that he was found in the bathroom with a needle in his arm.
 
My top 5 PSH characters/roles:

1. Truman Capote in Capote
2. Lester Bangs in Almost Famous
3. Gust Avrakotos in Charlie Wilson's War
4. Brandt in The Big Lebowski
5. Cameraman in Boogie Nights
 
We just watched Patch Adams with him the other night.
 
Sucks. He was probs my favorite actor. So many amazing performances.
 
I'm trying to get this straight -- so there was an internet hoax just yesterday that he died, but then he really did actually die today? That's insane.
