Very dislikable character in Rocky. Spoke well of his talent.

I YouTubed his one appearance in The Sopranos; he nailed the character. Italian ancestry, I learned today. You have to be a determined individual to make acting your life’s work. (I have actor cousins.)

I hadn’t seen him in forever and he shows up for one amazing sequence in The Soprano’s and just owns the thing. So good. And he was only 36 in Rocky!?!

Italian ancestry? Real name: Gerald Tommaso DeLouise.
