Dennis Farina dies at age 69
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...s-at-69-590133
He was most recently on New Girl on Fox. His last regular gig was Luck on HBO last year. Sad. I liked his work. |
RIP Dennis Farina
I've always liked him as an actor. His brief bit as J-Lo's dad in Out of Sight was always a favorite.
Link: SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Publicist: Actor Dennis Farina, police officer turned star of "Law & Order," has died at 69. |
Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
I still think his line he used in L&O several times "trust me, I'm authorized" is one of the best lines of any cop show ever. :lol:

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
For those who watched Hannibal on NBC this year, its also worth noting that Farina played Jack Crawford in the 1986 movie Manhunter. Laurence Fishburne played Crawford on the TV series.

Wow, sad. I met him on a USO tour back in 2003. Really nice guy. He signed my Snatch dvd. His wife took a picture of us then 4 or so months later I got a letter from him with a copy of the picture. Really nice guy and a good screen presence. Goodbye Dennis. RIP.

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
The man was such a stand-out actor that he even made his roles in awful films something worth watching.
RIP. |

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
The only two movies I know him from are his cameo in Saving Private Ryan, and he was very funny in Get Shorty. RIP

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
Is he the guy in the Comcast commercials?
|
Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
this is weird.
I saw him on a commercial last night and thought, "that's the guy who died from Law & Order...wait...no he is still alive, it was the guy from dirty dancing who died." |

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
Wow, sad to hear. I've just recently been re-watching the entire run of Crime Story on DVD (with only a few episodes left to go now) and was marveling at what a great job he did in that show, especially considering he was essentially a non-professional actor when he got cast in it. And he really went on to a pretty good career as a character actor afterwards. I didn't realize he was almost 70, though.
RIP, Lt. Torello. |

Liked that guy. |
Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
This sucks. I've been a fan of his work for years, probably since Crime Story.

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
INSANELY good in Midnight Run. RIP :(

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
RIP, I enjoy most of the scenes he is in.

Re: Dennis Farina dies at age 69
Sad news. I really liked his performance in Snatch.

Re: Law and Order Star Dennis Farina Dead
I always think of him more for his great work on Crime Story, than L&O. He was very good in Luck as well.

He was always a favorite of mine.
