Gonzalez Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Oh this one might be the worse one. Going to have to watch Get Shorty, and Snatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Aw man, Farina was the best! I especially enjoyed his performance in 'Snatch'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Austin Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Loved him in Snatch. Suprised to see he was the voice of Wildkat in Justice League Unlimited. He was great in that as well. He will be missed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 It's a shame. His performance in Get Shorty is one of my all time favorites. "They say the fucking smog is the fucking reason you have such beautiful fucking sunsets" Pure poetry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 If MADCAP hadn't posted that then I would have! His Midnight Run performance is great. Telling Philip Baker Hall to calm down and "make a fuckin sandwich" gets me everytime. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Magnificent 7 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I watched Thief over the weekend again, his first movie. Incidentally, the guy who played the main cop on James Caan's tail, John Santucci, (and who also was the consultant for the film) was arrested by Dennis Farina when he was a cop. Great actor. Crime Story was 100% awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tele-Viper Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 He killed it on Law & Order. I know a lot of people didn't think he could fill Orbach's shoes and they were right and Dennis was right for not even trying. He did his own thing and I was sad that he left the show so soon after joining. He was great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Loved him on Law and Order and pretty much anything else I happened to see him in. This is disappointing news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 His line in Snatch about no one speaking English in England slays me every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 They just ran the Wildcat episode of JLU this weekend too. He was pretty great in Midnight Run and Get Shorty. I also remember him as one of the hitmen being annoyed by Gators fans in Big Trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 "Fuck you, fuckball" is one of the best delivered bits of profanity in movie history, and was an oft quoted line amongst me and a few friends growing up. Really great character actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiffshots Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Call me weird - hell, call me Ishmael if that floats your boat - but this episode of TALES FROM THE CRYPT contains my all-time favorite Dennis Farina performance. Why? Because it's a full 180° from what you'd expect a "typical" Farina performance to be, and he still sells the bejeezus out of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL2BNaOnGxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Farina killed it wherever he went. Even his Xfinity commercial fucking rules. What a consumate professional. RIP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
