RIPPA Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Mary Mara - a character actor who folks will probably recognize from a lot of random things including Nash Bridges and ER - passed away at the age of 61 in an apparent drowning in upstate New York (I don't think there is any relation to the Mara Family who owns the New York Giants) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showtime Network homies will remember her roles as Valerie Hodges, one of Harry Morgan's informants and eventual side piece, from the first season of Dexter as well as Sully Sullivan's wife from the first season of Ray Donovan.

Craig H Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Aw fuck. There's a really great story about casting James Caan for Elf. So many people were afraid of him because of the reputation he had, but he couldn't have been nicer. Then there was some kind of discussion about what kind of direction to give him and Favreau was like, "he's James fucking Caan! He can just be that guy!" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Not sure what's greater: the RAMP at :43 or the presence of George f'n Takei in a NASCAR movie. RIP James. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contentious C Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Scott posted a remark on Twitter about how James' father never said "I love you" so he said it to Scott all the time. The snarky asshole in me wanted to snipe back, "Oh, so that's why you're a shitty actor", but, getting that out of my system here instead... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 The man was 99 years old. We can only dream to live that kind of life. RIP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) I think Storch was the last surviving majorcast member, after James Hampton passed away last year. Edited July 8, 2022 by odessasteps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I don’t know what Sirico was like in real life, so I’m not sure where the person ended and the character began, but it’s incredibly hard to play someone that’s wily and stupid at the same time. He did it the best on a show populated with very competent morons. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pauly is somehow Wile E Coyote and Gus Fring combined. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Paulie saying urine like "you-rin" is the first thing I thought of and got a good laugh. If you can do that in your career in an actor, no matter how big or how small, you won the game. RIP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
