Paul Sorvino, an imposing actor who specialized in playing crooks and cops like Paulie Cicero in “Goodfellas” and the NYPD sergeant Phil Cerretta on “Law & Order,” has died. He was 83.

His publicist Roger Neal said he died Monday morning in Indiana of natural causes.

“Our hearts are broken, there will never be another Paul Sorvino, he was the love of my life, and one of the greatest performers to ever grace the screen and stage,” his wife, Dee Dee Sorvino, said in a statement.

#1.. I thought Paul Sorvino was already dead.

#2.. Those thick shoe soles look like something Lady Gaga would wear during a performance.
It would be a shame if somebody bumped into DeNiro right then, and made him twist his ankle. Lots of muffled laughter.

What’s wrong with Al Pacino’s foot in that picture?

He also played one of the Maralto brothers in The Firm.
Excellent performance.

Yes. She was a doll. Her career was destroyed by Weinstein.

Really like him. Have no idea as to his politics.

Ditto to the first sentence as well as the second. And not knowing his politics is how it should be.

I remember reading Paul Sorvino having extreme words regarding Weinstein who blacklisted his daughter for not putting out..

RIP
