Farina is a Hollywood legend

He's great in Crime Story. A legend? Not in my book. FWIW.

Great actor. Law and Order was just not the same after he left. May the Lord grant him eternal rest.

Dennis was a great actor and a good guy. I had the pleasure of working with him on a movie, and we became good friends. May God rest his soul.

Is it just me or are other people noticing that all of a sudden, people are dying. It seems we can't even go a week anymore without hearing about this or that person dying.

It's crazy.

I was on a trans-Atlantic flight into New York during the 1990’s which showed the movie Get Shorty. After we landed I wound up in the TWA lounge waiting for the next flight. Farina had come in on the same flight and he was in the set of sofas next to us. It was really odd to see him as a gangster on the screen and then see him in person.

I wondered if they had shown the movie in his honor. I didn’t notice whether it was featured in the flight magazine.

The last line in the TMZ story is: "Story Developing"...

...Really? The guy is dead! How is the story going to "develop"?

PS-

RIP Mr. Farina. You were a good actor and, apparently, a fine fellow.

Farina was at some stage of filming a new movie and has one currently in post production. Liked his work hosting “Unsolved Mysteries.”

Found this on the IMDB boards;

“The Emmy nominated cast and crew of “New Girl” were dining at the Wolseley Restaurant in London today when a photographer told them about Farina’s death. After saying, “That’s awful,” Jake Johnson, who plays the character of Nick Miller, writer Luvh Rakhe added “I warned him,” but refused to elaborate.”

Farina was in a couple of episodes of that show.

Law and Order had some great detectives, Dennis was one of the top two, IMHO (Lenny #1)

And a great head of hair.
