The only main black villain in the James Bond movie series.
Too bad you can't have that anymore, with all of the woke stuff going on now.
RIP.

Mostly familiar with his work on Homicide:Life on the Streets. It was one of the best written shows for it's time.

He was a big dude. I enjoyed his work. RIP.

He was great on homicide life on the streets but to me he will
Always be the guy from Alien asking about the Bonus situation. I could really relate to that character

His ads for 7 Up were also huge.

BTW, those ads and 7 Up’s “the uncola” campaign propelled 7 Up to the #3 soft drink spot in sales (only behind Coke & Pepsi). An incredible feat for an independent soft drink.
To: PallMal
He was Giardello in Homicide: Life on the Street, about the homicide unit in Baltimore.
To: PallMal
He was great in Brubaker with Robert Redford! R.I.P.
To: PallMal
He was a terrific villain in "Live and Let Die"

I read up on him, he is an African Jew, a Republican, supported Steve Forbes in 1996, and Damn fine actor. His favorite role was the FBI guy in “Midnight Run”, wonder how he felt about De Niro?
I was a kid in the 1960’s when I first saw him and always liked him. God Speed Yaphet and thanks for all the hours of great entertainment.
