Sidney Lumet was respected by fellow directors and actors alike
Sidney Lumet was respected by fellow directors and actors alike
Fellow New York director Allen said Lumet was "definitely the quintessential(精髓的) New York film-maker".

"I'm constantly amazed at how many films of his prodigious1(惊人的) output were wonderful and how many actors and actresses had their best work under his direction," said Allen.

"Knowing Sidney, he will have more energy dead than most live people."

Lumet died at his Manhattan home of lymphoma(淋巴瘤) , his step-daughter said on Saturday.

Lumet rose to prominence2 with the jury-room drama 12 Angry Men; other major films included Dog Day Afternoon, Network, and Serpico.

He directed more than 40 films, which garnered3 some 50 Oscar nominations4.

Lumet's passing has prompted other film-making contemporaries(同辈人) to pay tribute to his cinema legacy5.

Fellow director Scorsese said Lumet's death marked "the end of an era".

Lumet was a "New York film-maker at heart, and our vision of the city has been enhanced and deepened by classics like Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon and, above all, the remarkable6 Prince of the City," he said.

Actor Pacino, who starred in Serpicio and Dog Day Afternoon, said it would be difficult to imagine there would be no more films from the director, adding: "All the more reason to take good care of the ones he left behind."

Actor Phillip Seymour Hoffman, who starred in Lumet's last film, 2007's melodrama7(情节剧) Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, also paid his respects.

"He was a true master who loved directing and working with actors like no other.
