Pollack directed more than 21 films and 10 television shows, acted in over 30 films or shows, and produced over 44 films. His 1985 film Out of Africa won him Academy Awards for directing and producing; he was also nominated for Best Director Oscars for They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1969) and Tootsie (1982), in the latter of which he also appeared.

Some of his other best known works include Jeremiah Johnson (1972), The Way We Were (1973), Three Days of the Condor (1975) and Absence of Malice (1981). His subsequent films included Havana (1990), The Firm (1993), Sabrina (1995), The Interpreter (2005), and as producer for and actor in Michael Clayton (2007).

Early life

Sydney Pollack was born in Lafayette, Indiana, to a family of Jewish immigrants from Ukraine, the son of Rebecca (née Miller) and David Pollack, a semi-professional boxer and pharmacist. The family relocated to South Bend and his parents divorced when he was young. His mother, an alcoholic with emotional problems, died at the age of 37 while Pollack was a student.

Famous quotes by Sydney Pollack:

"I'm making a plea for my colleagues and myself, who spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to tell you the story in the best possible way visually. And then someone else has to come in and cut the edges off of all that and pan and scan it. So you're not seeing what story we tried to tell you."

"On the one hand, the businessman in me understands it. But the lover of movies in me wants desperately to hang on to the movie house as a collective experience with the audience."

"You are not an active creator of the film."

"You know, essentially when you do a play you're reinterpreting a work of art that already exists. That's not what happens with a movie."

"And I taught acting for years, and without knowing it that was the real thing that started bending me toward directing."

"I mean, certainly it's the single biggest event, I think, in terms of popular entertainment, or art even, if you say that, of the 20th Century. It's been film. It's the 20th Century's real art form."

"I mean, certainly writing, painting, photography, dance, architecture, there is an aspect of almost every art form that is useful and that merges into film in some way."

"Reading a novel of a private experience, very, very different, the nature of it is very different."

"I think it's a terrible shame that politics has become show business."

"Film is a collective experience, as you know."

"I didn't grow up thinking of movies as film, or art, but as movies, something to do on a Saturday afternoon."

"I didn't believe that I'd ever be lucky enough to be able to make a living as an actor."

"The very reasons sometimes that you make a film are the reasons for its failure."

"Every single art form is involved in film, in a way."

"I mean, I don't know anything else that I would try to do, but it's a very frustrating thing to do, because you are trying to take what's a fantasy in your head and make it live through the minds of 200 people."

"When you make a film you usually make a film about an idea."

"By that I mean, I think that it is true that politics and political heroes have to satisfy our need to be greater than mortal in some way, and that's led them into creating illusions, sound bites, focus groups that tell you what to do."

"I don't know about liberal bias, but people of a liberal mentality are probably attracted in greater numbers to the arts than people of a conservative mentality."

Seitenblicke

by Roland Kaiser

Seitenblicke

by: Roland Kaiser

Sie saá einfach nur da
und doch war sie mir unendlich nah.
Mit dem sich'ren Gefühl ihrer Wirkung
begann sie ihr Spiel.
Und ihr Lächeln bewuát unterkühlt
hat mich beinah verbrannt.
Ich war so fasziniert
daá ich fast keinen Ausweg mehr fand.
Refrain:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Zwischen Herz und Verstand
mit dem Rücken zur Wand
kann ich Dir kaum widerstehn.
Zwischen Kopf und Gefühl
so gefährliches Spiel
was darf zwischen uns geschehn
ohne zu weit zu gehn.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Irgendwann stand sie auf
und ich hatte schon Angst sie gibt auf.
Doch sie wollte nicht gehn
dafür fand sie das Spiel viel zu schön.
Diese Art wie sie ging
provozierend genau wie ihr Kleid.
Jeder einzelne Schritt bis zu mir
ging für mich schon zu weit.
Refrain:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Zwischen Herz und Verstand...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Es kann nicht sein
was nicht sein kann
stark sein fällt mir oft so schwer.
Ich nehm die Träume mit nach Haus
wie schön es mit Dir wär.
Refrain: 2*
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Zwischen Herz und Verstand...
