I would have guessed he was about 52 or so.

didn't he do a porno or something else really shady {drug dealing?} in recent years?

Small world ...... [sorry, couldn't resist]

Aww don't recall him too well from tv or anything, but...

I was just reading the other day after getting off at work of another actor that died tragically at 42. He only worked in movies for 6 years and during those 6 years, each of his movies were best picture quality. Can you guess who?

John Cazale

The Godfather, The Godfather Part II, The Conversation, Dog Day Afternoon and The Deer Hunter.

Granted he didn't play the lead in any of them but his roles are memorable. probably some we'll never ever forget. Isn't that really something?

Ya, Fredo is smart not stuid like everybody thinks....

Moe Greene: You goddamn guineas you really make me laugh. I do you a favor and take Freddie in when you're having a bad time, and now you're gonna try and push me out!

Michael: You took Freddie in because the Corleone Family bankrolled your casino, and the Molinari Family on the Coast guaranteed his safety. Now we're talking business, let's talk business.

Moe Greene: Yeah, let's talk business, Mike. First of all, you're all done. The Corleone Family don't even have that kind of muscle anymore. The Godfather's sick, right? You're getting chased out of New York by Barzini and the other Families. What do you think is going on here? You think you can come to my hotel and take over? I talked to Barzini - I can make a deal with him, and still keep my hotel!

Michael: Is that why you slapped my brother around in public?

Fredo: Aw, now that, that was nothin', Mike. Moe didn't mean nothin' by that. Yeah, sure he flies off the handle every once in a while, but me and him, we're good friends, right Moe?

Moe Greene: I got a business to run. I gotta kick asses sometimes to make it run right. We had a little argument, Freddy and me, so I had to straighten him out.

Michael: You straightened my brother out?

Moe Greene: He was banging cocktail waitresses two at a time! Players couldn't get a drink at the table! What's the matter with you?

Michael: I leave for New York tomorrow, think about a price.

Moe Greene: Sonofabitch! Do you know who I am? I'm Moe Greene! I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders!

Fredo: Wait a minute, Moe, Moe, I got an idea. Tom, you're the Consiglieri and you can talk to the Don, you can explain...

Tom Hagen: Now hold it right there. The Don is semi-retired and Mike is in charge of the Family business now. If you have anything to say, say it to Michael.

Fredo: [Moe Greene leaves] Mike! You do not come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Greene like that!

Michael: Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.

'Gary Coleman, the former annoying child star'........         I must have blinked.

Casale was Meryl Streep's boyfriend at the time of death....... I didn't remember that he was in The Conversation, a great film (man, if you're only in 5 movies & it's those 5 ... unfrickingbelievable).... & obviously forum members have a special interest in Dog Day Afternoon for the motive angle, & one of the Best Movies Ever... incidently I grew up in that era/area & vividly remember the actual event that the movie was based on, wonder what happened to the principals. The local TV stations were looking for something to figure out how to go live on location with breaking news events with their '60's technology & that was just about the first one ever... in the nation's largest market, there were no rules or precedents for the media or the cops then... priceless. It was such a doomed cause by a dim, romantic sad sack.....you have to love it!

RIP Gary.

No short jokes coming from me.

Doesn't it seem though that a disproportionately high pct of child star actors end up having a lot of problems in adult life? Not many go on to become really successful adult stars later on.

Alyssa Milano is one of the few. In fact just off the top of my head, she's the only one I can think of.

Elizabeth Taylor, Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland...

The first two have lived good lives. A shame that Judy checked out too early; what a voice she had...

[guydesavoy]

He was great in that show. Pity it all went south after that. R.I.P
