IMDB has his age @ 40yo. Not exactly a young Turk. FWIW. Interesting post. I am bookmarking it to read later.

IMDB shows Gallo was in Goodfellas in a bit part. But a bit part in one of the greatest movies of all time is still pretty good.

IMDB has Gallo in the sequel to a movie called "Freeway" (never heard of it) directed by Oliver Stone. The sequel is "Freeway II: Confessions of a Trickbaby (1999)." "Vincent Gallo is wonderfully insane as the wicked witch," it says, a character named, "Sister Lopez." Sounds like he perhaps didn't leave his hustling, go-go dancing days behind him in Times Square entirely...Could this be another of the left's attempts at discrediting the conservatives with characters like, say this, or David Brock?

You MUST see 'Freeway'. It's very violent (it is an Oliver Stone movie, after all) but is extremely funny (very, very black humor, though, I'm warning ya.) One of the funniest courtroom confrontations ever. Reese Witherspoon is a revelation as a poor-white-trash girl who is confronted by a sicko serial killer. Gallo plays her ex-con stepfather in a small, but memorable, role.

Hi. No. VG has always been like this! I remember being THRILLED when I read that he was right wing! I didn't feel so alone!!! Other weird edgy right wingers were out there!! I met another weird edgy right winger another time. I never met VG, but I felt akin to his politics and loved that movie.

I take his conservatism as being real as he makes Johnny Ramone's top 10 Republicans list (he has no such list of Democrats). Johnny has probably had some discussions with him at some point.

Did the author use the phrase right-wing enough times in that article or what? It's because of that I am willing to overlook the author's attempts at race-baiting.
