Wow! It is indeed Vids. 
He was one of the finest modern movie actors and I'm sure he had so much to still do. 
OMG nooooo
He was one of my favourites
Talented Mr Ripley was superb
Genuinely shocked. If cause of death reports are true what an awful waste.
Awww you stupid, wonderful man
Very sad news. Seen quite a few of his films and found him to be a splendid actor.
Am I bad to feel angry? He's found with a needle in his arm. Where's the thought for his three children and his wife.
No Cologne - perfectly understandable.
Young, talented father. So much to live for.
Stupid, stupid man.
Incredibly sad. Apparently he lapsed after being clean for 20 years.

Indeed, Roger.
From my favourite moive - The Talented Mr.Ripley.
Hoffman was never better than in this scene. He was 32
He was amazing in that part, Saint. It wasn't like he was acting at all - you really believed in that character.
Stupid, stupid, wonderful guy
