I am absolutely shocked at Seymour Hoffmans death. His portrayal as Truman capote was one of the best acting sequence I have ever seen. Such a tragic loss to drugs. I drink, I smoke ciggeretts and can even confess that I smoked weed once almost 20 years ago,but what possesses a human being to actually take these 'white stuffs' and graduate to injecting it into their blood system? What a waste
