It's so sad...Condolences to Ridley and his family.
RIP Tony Scott
Simone,
Thank you for your due diligence in updating us on Tony Scott's suicide.
I had read about this tragedy in the New York Times and got pissed off by some of the readers' comments that were so judgmental and condescending. It sad that some people can't fathom how depression or personal demons can cause a person to take his/her own life.
I'm swimming through some rough waters in my life right now, and I realize that some demons--feelings of shame, guilt, worthlessness, that despite the accomplishments and dynamic, full life-- can't always be slayed, and that some people run away from life and love all the time. We should grieve for this talented man, not judge.
My condolences to the Scott family.
I found out from my friend that Tony had committed suicide. DUDE RIP.
