RIP

Sad loss. I remember first noticing him on episodes of Miami Vice back in the 80s. To me, his most memorable and hilarious role was the character RayBonesBarboni in the equally funny movie Get Shorty.

It always makes me sad whenever a known good actor dies. They are part of our memories of "good old times".
The first time I saw him was in the tv series Crime Story.
I also have a copy of Midnight Run. He plays the crime lord part, Jimmy Serrano. Good performance, although somewhat short.
May he R.I.P.
