Buggin' Out might finally get some brothas up on the wall now. 

A great actor. Seemed like he was in most movies set in New York in the 80s and 90s.

RIP.  Pretty long life for a bigger fella like him.

His best film was Hudson hawk

[T’Boo Ted Marshall 2740]

Solid in Harlem Nights

My Dad swears that he and his family lived in same apartment building in Brooklyn in 1975 as us.  That’s been the story since.  
 

I liked him in many roles but especially as the chiropractor in Jacob’s Ladder.  And I will always like him in The Professional.

Sad, but true. RIP

I had no idea he was that old.

[Guest Lobo]

I had no idea he was 6'3".  

Guy doesn't start acting until he's in his 40's and his second credited role is in the freakin' Godfather, Part II.  Just remembered his scenes in "Once Upon a Time in America" too, as the corrupt police captain.   Really hits his stride from the late 80's to late 90's.....so many great roles.  I don't know, never met anyone who met him...but he just seemed like a really great guy.  

[Go Pokes 979]

He definitely seemed like the type of guy who deserved a better RIP thread title than this.  To quote Spinal Tap, it's such a fine line between stupid and clever.  

[tx 3 putt 77610]

He had a long list of great roles. A great actor 

[Stunns38 3560]

RIP, didn’t know he was that old either.

[Buzzrock 14953]

RIP, Madonna’s dad

(Hudson Hawk is criminally underrated)

[GreenspointTexas 9689]

Didnt he get a best supporting actor nom. for Do the Right Thing?

 

he was fantastic in that role

I know it probably won't past muster on this board, but Moonstruck -- pretty darn good.  Both Ronny and Johnny.
