Tony Scott younger brother of Ridley Scott died age 68.

It seems like suicide.

What a loss.

It is a shame - so much talent, so much still to do. But the news says he left a note, and had recently been diagnosed with ternimal brain cancer.

Guess he wanted to go out on his own terms, while he still could make that choice.

I've read that his family says he had no cancer. The reasons for which one takes his own life are mostly unscrutable. I've lost two friends by suicide while young. One was a good pianist, who had won an international prize.

Two great physicists committed suicide, Ludwig Boltzmann and Ettore Majorana, But the list could be long. My father, an officer in the Alpine Corps sent in Russia by Mussolini, told me that, in the disastrous retreat, officers would commit suicide while simple soldiers carried on in the hope of going home. All this was narrated by Mario Rigoni Stern in his book "Sergeant in the snow".

I've also lost a friend by suicide, very sad.

A relative of mine, the wife of my sailing brother, was once called on the phone by another sailor's wife, her husband at sea, She was busy that day and could not meet the calling woman, who committed suicide that night. She felt guilty, but I told her that the decision was not taken on the moment, it was taken before.
