Frank Vincent passed away the other day. Best known for playing Billy Bats in Goodfellas and for his roles as mobsters in Raging Bull, Casino, Gotti and the Sopranos. I didn't include dates in the subject line because I found conflicting information on his age. Some sources claim he was 78 while others state he was 80.

Very sinister indeed in The Sopranos, for me his most memorable role.

I went with the majority of reports that he was born in 1939 (although some say 1937).
RIP Frank.

Born to play a mobster. Looked every inch one. Great roles played with conviction. His death in Sopranos was funny. Black humour at its best.
RIP Frank
