Died on location while making another filum. Shame he didn't get more big roles.

Even if he had never appeared in another film, holding that role whilst keeping up with prime De Niro and Pesci would have cemented him into cinematic lore.

Frightening looking guy, who honestly looked like he has off'ed a few people before going into acting.
That one where he played an obsessed patrol cop, stalking that family was seriously disconcerting.

He was brilliant in that film. His sense of drug addled desperation is unrivalled. Better than Pacino in Scarface who just had to go large
The long scene in Goodfellas where he was going between cooking the sauce, & selling the guns, watching out for the helicopter was just brilliant; where you're getting caught up in his paranoia, & you can just feel his heart thumping away in his chest as his life goes down the shitter.

Field of Dreams is one of my favourite films. He manages a slightly otherworldly presence. It’s a beautiful film.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?
