RIP: Paul Sorvino

Variety says...

Paul Sorvino, who distinguished himself in a long line of stage and screen performances including “Goodfellas” and “Law & Order,” died Monday of natural causes, according to his rep. He was 83.

His wife, DeeDee Sorvino, posted on Instagram, saying “I am completely devastated. The love of my life & the most wonderful man who has ever lived is gone. I am heartbroken.”

Sorvino, who was the father of actor Mira Sorvino, was perhaps best known for his role as Sgt. Frank Cerreta on NBC’s “Law & Order,” as Mafia don Pail Cicero in Martin Scorsese’s beloved gangster film “Goodfellas” and as Kissinger in Oliver Stone’s “Nixon.”

Mira Sorvino tweeted, “My father the great Paul Sorvino has passed. My heart is rent asunder – a life of love and joy and wisdom with him is over. He was the most wonderful father. I love him so much. I’m sending you love in the stars Dad as you ascend.”

At 83, I'd say the rich food didn't necessarily do him in early on in his life. 83 is a full life. If he was 53, then yes - all dat rich food may be an argument.

I know he is famous for Goodfellas but I can't help but think of him in Chris Tucker's movie Money Talks when Chris convinces him he's Vic Damone's son after watching a commercial of his greatest hits while shaving in the bathroom. Chris says Greatest Hits. Shit I ain't never heard of them. lol
