And here I thought Blacks couldn’t succeed in America. At least that’s what the media and Democrats preach.

He always seemed to radiate an aura of understated power.
His resting facial expression was usually neutral, somewhat blank, meaning his motives could be ominous or perhaps even to your benefit.

My favorite of his lines from the movie:


Tee-Hee, on the first wrong answer from Miss Solitaire, you will snip the little finger of Mr. Bond's right hand. Starting with the second wrong answer, you will proceed to the more... vital... areas.


LOL

I liked him in “Badge of the Assassin” opposite the also great James Woods.

I liked him as FBI agent Alonzo Mosely in Midnight Run back before I swore off De Niro movies.

"At the height of his fame, he turned down the role of Captain Picard in “Star Trek: The Next Generation” — a decision he later said he regretted."

Oh, man, would I have loved to see this.

Troi, regarding someone on the viewer screen who's clearly belligerent:
"I sense belligerence!"

Yaphet Kotto Picard:
"No $h!+. Tell me something I _don't_ already know."

I think he was a good pick for his role in Alien.

I saw him first decades ago with the actor David Janssen in a movie and I thought Kotto was impressive back then....one reason....he was really really black, not just a light hollywood brown, but really black....he wasn't a pretty boy actor....he had substance...he had a presence.....

Never seen anything he’s ever been in. IMO “Showbiz” almost always means “scum”. Don’t know if that applies here.

RIP. I didn't know he was Jewish. I best remember him from the series Homicide and as the FBI Agent in Midnight Run. RIP Yaphet Kotto.
