A fine actor:
"Tom Sizemore, the “Saving Private Ryan” actor whose bright 1990s star burned out under the weight of his own domestic violence and drug convictions, has died at age 61.
The actor had suffered a brain aneurysm on Feb. 18 at his home in Los Angeles. He died in his sleep Friday at a hospital in Burbank, California, his manager Charles Lago said.
Sizemore became a star with acclaimed appearances in “Natural Born Killers” and the cult-classic crime thriller “Heat.” But serious substance dependency, abuse allegations and multiple run-ins with the law devastated his career, left him homeless and sent him to jail."

HEAT and SAVING PRIVATE RYAN obviously the 2 best movies he was in, and he had big parts in both. A talent not quite wasted, but certainly not used to its potential, I had always hoped to work with him.
If you have never seen THE RELIC (he's the star, not 2nd fiddle), it's super fun.
RIP
