tizzod Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Aw, man, that really sucks. I know him from When Harry Met Sally, of course, but he was also in Godfather II, in the flashback scenes. Also he was in Donnie Brasco. From way back, he was the limo driver in Spinal Tap! Rest in peace, Bruno. Thanks for all the great characters you left us with.

In fact, it's two degrees colder today than yesterday." [Adrian Cronauer(Williqms to Lt. Steven Hauk (Kirby)]: "Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P." Great Stuff R.I.P.
