Wow. Worked steady since 1965. You don’t see that often with actors. Impressive credentials with some schlock thrown in there to pay the bills, LOL!

I thought he was older.
But then again, he's Moe Greene, he made his bones while I was still going out with cheerleaders.
So what do I know.

He was very loosely affiliated with the Winter Hill Gang headed by Whitey Bulger in Boston. Alex Petricone had a girlfriend and one of the mobsters starting hitting on her. Things escalated and a pretty fierce gang war came out of it. Early to mid-1960s, a bunch of people ended up dying.
Alex Petricone was a smart guy -- he left right at the start, moved to California, changed his name to Alex Rocco and became an actor.

Yup....he was involved with the real mob in Boston. He got smart when the 60s mob wars in Boston started & got out of town.
To: Borges
This guy was originally from Boston.There’s a Boson talk host,Howie Carr,who plays the clip “do you know who I am?” whenever discussing a celebrity who tries to get out of trouble by reminding others of their power or wealth.
To: SevenofNine; dead
Mo Greene diedI've had my eye out for him. (with apologies to Dead)

...he made his bones while I was still going out with cheerleaders.I thought the line made mention of something more "intimate" than just going out with them.

He bought my childhood home in Carpinteria, CA and lived there for some time. My mom said he was really into the Baha’i faith.
