Sad day for film fans and a sad day for Phillip Morris stockholders.

Do you think the LA wildfires and poor air quality accelerated his death? He had emfysemia

  • I would guess it probably triggered a crisis. He did an interview last year? where he talked about how bad his health was and his smoking. I read he had to be evacuated but I'm not certain it's true. That would have been a major stressor on him.

  • Probably didn't help, but the man had been smoking since he was 8 years old and was at the point where he needed supplemental oxygen just to walk.
