Swayze in Red Dawn

Patrick Swayze succumbed to pancreatic cancer today. He was 57.

Many will remember Swayze for his testoserone-boosting roles in 1984’s Red Dawn and 1989’s Road House. He was also in some movie about dancing, but I don’t recall the name.

Swayze had bravely, and very publicly, battled pancreatic cancer as he continued his directing and acting career. We’re sad to see him go.

We first learned about it at TMZ.com. You can read their coverage of his passing here.
