Other than Capote the only thing I remember him in was Along Came Poly and "White Lightning!", other than that; irrelevant. Sad how the media celebrate his life and death and ignore the fact he was a hardcore drug user. Its not like you start on heroine, there was probably a lead up of abuse of other drugs ie: cocaine that lead him down this path. Sorry but not sad at all.
