Bon Voyage, Bruno.
Everyone recognizes Bruno Kirby. A great character actor, he started working back in 1971 and had a long and memorable career. He died today from leukemia complications, and I felt obliged to give him a little tip of the hat, through the power of YouTube. Here he is arguing with Pacino and Madsen over Cadillacs in Donnie Brasco prior to being shot in the head and chopped up by Johnny Depp in a basement. Memories.
The list of flicks goes on - City Slickers, The Freshman, Spinal Tap and most noteably Godfather Part 2. Kirby was also on the uber popular Entourage this year, playing the movie producer that Dom stole the Shrek doll from. I'm glad he was able to fit in one last high profile job before his sad and untimely demise at 57. Read a better obit here.
