Spalding Gray Found Decayed In River
 

Anyone remember him? He was famous for rambling monologues like ?Swimming to Cambodia.?

Decayed? :throwup

I inferred that part. He'd been missing for 2 months, was pulled from the river and identified from dental records. Probably a gooey mess.

I caught parts of his monologue on IFC I think about a month or two ago, he's a weird character thats for sure. Link isn't coming up for me, any mention of possible suicide? I know he was depressed.

Yeah, the article strongly alluded to that by saying he was known to be "deeply troubled."

This attempt worked. sad.

i really hoped he had jumped into the water and turned into a big fish. :(

Very talented , its very sad.

If anyone could do it, he could.

I'm gonna miss that guy. An amazing talent and a fascinating person. :sadcrying

fuck that sucks. only thing i ever saw him in was Swimming to Cambodia and a few Letterman appearances. Very talented writer, to write a monologue and deliver it so it sounds like you're just talking to the audience can't be easy. To get people to go to a movie theater to watch that is almost impossible, in fact he's the only one i can think of that did it who isn't a standup comedian.

sometimes being smart is a bitch, he probably outthought himself into depressions his whole life. like a Woody Allen.

Not only was he a talented writer and actor, but he was also a porn star in the 70's.

R.I.P.

Shame to see the super smart self destruct like that.

who??

Yeah I remember he went missing that's a damn shame.
