RIP Dennis Farina

It's easy to get Frank Vincent and Dennis Farina confused. Frank got his revenge for Billy Batts on Pesci by beating the crap out of him with a bat in Casino.

I liked him in Snatch and I really liked him in Law and Order. Whenever he needed information or admittance to a room he would tell the person "It's okay, we're authorized".

RIP Dennis Farina! Now relax and go have a cream soda with Sydney.

I always liked Farina. Too young to die.

A third Vegas connection for Farina was the 2007 movie "The Grand"....a pretty funny spoof on the poker boom with a great cast. Woody Harrelson, Ray Romano, David Cross, and of course Farino as Deuce Fairbanks. Definitely worth a rental!

I didn't know he was a Chicago cop for 18 years
