Conviction
I was looking around for the big Sydney Pollack-Judy Davis-Liam Neeson blowout scene from Husbands and Wives, but couldn't find it. If anyone has a link...

When I had heard of Sydney's death, this was the first clip I watched. Not only is this a perfect scene in this movie; it might be one of the best I have ever watched in anything. Pollock and Hoffmann play off of each other like two perfectly-tuned instruments. The beats and changes in pitch and intensity are brilliant.

That is the only good clip around of him. I hope someone uploads anything from Husbands and Wives. I love the scene where he drags his bimbo girlfriend out of the party, "come on, you infant!" But I also love the scene where he shows up and intrudes upon Liam Neeson and Judy Davis. I couldn't find any of those clips either. He also has some great line about a blow job.

I think I enjoyed Sydney's work as an actor more than as a director. (that's not a knock on his directing, btw) There never seemed to be the feeling that he was acting. He was that guy. His bit in Eyes Wide Shut was simply chilling.
I know I'll risk five years in the gulag for saying this but I always thought "Tootsie" was wildly over-rated. It's a fun, cute, delightful piece of entertainment, but I always cringe a little when I hear people effuse about how it's "the greatest comedy ever" and so on. I knew the "tomato" clip would be shown over and over.
My favorite is still "Husbands and Wives", (as mentioned above). Pure genius.
