Paul Sorvino is DEAD TO ME

I thought he died a long time ago

Duh duh.

Damn. Mira might shatter like a glass unicorn

You mean "doink doink," r2?

Now maybe Amir’s can get some patio furniture.

Sorry, r4, I didn't know how to spell it

Goddamnit Jeff, it’s spelled “Mira”

He really wasn't very good on Law & Order.

BARF

[quote] Sorvino married his third wife, Dee Dee Benkie, a GOP strategist and former aide to President George W. Bush, in 2014. They had met on Fox News Channel’s Your World With Neil Cavuto.

Was he known for playing any particular type of character?

A fine actor but like others, I was quite convinced he'd already died years ago.

In any case, rest in peace, sir.

I always liked him in this movie with LeVar Burton from 1979. It was a TV movie from back in the day when there were great TV movies. Whenever I watch Looking for Mr. Goodbar, I remember it, because of LeVar Burton playing a deaf man.

I also Liked Paul Sorvino in L&O. May he RIP.

Maybe Mira can now fix up that Malibu shit hole she calls a house.

I’ve watched the video of Paul Sorvino peeing on me 5 times today. I’m so fucking sad he was such a great guy :(

My favorite movie with Paul Sorvino was Bloodbrothers, in which I was also introduced to Richard Gere.

Everyone will remember him for "Goodfellas," but I prefer to honor his trashier films, like "My Mother's Secret Life" with Loni Anderson. His role is small (she's a hooker, he's a smitten john), and Anderson couldn't act her way out of a paper bag, but he still took pride in his work.

I loved him Romeo and Juliet.

R13 Fat chance!

Can you imagine that? Can you imagine that? Everybody knew my name.

he died in IN. that's what i heard on the news. he lived there?!

he died of natural causes.

Lovely hairy chest:

I always wondered what he was like naked and aroused.

His widow is an ugly MAGA cunt and MTG fan. Thank god he never knocked her up.

When he joined L&O, one tv critic remarked that "Sorvino seemed like he'd been to the well once too often". He did seem to be phoning it in at that point. I liked him in Goodfellas.

Awww, Worf’s brother…

How come he never had Harvey bumped off?

He always reminded me of my Italian grandfather, who was also named Paul.

There seems to be some disagreement. One source said Indiana. The other said Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville---he died in a hellhole regardless with his MAGA princess at his side. Apparently, he had had severe asthma for much of his life---I'm guessing some respiratory disease got him.

He was such an amazing black thespian. No doubt his black daughter Mira is heartbroken. May she RIP.

No mention of his role in "Cruising"....

Loved him in Goodfellas and Law and Order.

Who?

You bitiches kept manifesting this in the "Mira Sorvino is broke" thread, and now it happened!

You kept talking about her "inheritance" when her father Paul dies.

Well, I guess on a positive note, she can finally fix up her shitty house.

He asked Al Pacino if he got his pole smoked in CRUISING

Get me the pool cleaner, stat!

He had a food company, the roasted red peppers were very good.

He was AMAZING as Henry Kissinger in Nixon.

I was young when I saw Nixon, I just remembered Hopkins under all that makeup and Bai Ling.l from The Crow.

He and his wife were big time Trumpers. Unlike Mira.

I know him from the gay-themed movie Mambo Italiano.

Did Chris Noth grope him?

I am sure DL fave Patti LuPone is busy today quoting DL fave Bette Davis:

“You should never say bad things about the dead, only good… Paul Sorvino is dead. Good.”

R35- The BEST line in the video

Have you ever had your COCK SUCKED by a man?

😏

DL killed Paul Sorvino.

R35- The PHONIEST line in that scene is when Paul Sorvino says that Al Pacino is in his late 20's

more like THIRTY NINE.

Aww RIP. I will never forget that scene in Money Talks and the look on he and Heather Locklear's face when Chris Tucker calls her PHAT.

He was on an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. He played Worf's brother.

R48, why no “Awww” from you like R26?

R49- 😥

R30 are you thinking of Paul Winfield? He was a homosexualist, y’know.

Predictions for the next two celebrity deaths-Marsha Hunt and Pete Davidson.

Aww, Thank you, R49.

Liotta, Caan and, now, Sorvino. Not a good year for those of us who love the mob movie genre.

Rest in peace, Paul Sorvino.

Got a Tony nom for "That Championship Season"; lost to Alan Bates in "Butley."

Did anyone see him as Second Patrolman in "Bajour!"?

Don't forget me, r54!

R54 Don't forget Titpig.

I saw him on Broadway in THAT CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON and he was riveting. I was young but still remember it vividly as it was one of those matinees done as a benefit for The Actors Fund and all the actors were on fire, performing for their peers. An ensemble cast of great NY character actors including Charles Durning and Richard Dysart, but Sorvino still stood out. Incredible macho energy in that role, terrifyingly real.

Wow, you weren't kidding, he really was in Bajour.

He said he left L&O because he didn't realize how much outside shooting there would be, esp. at night in the winter. He was worried about his singing voice.

He was talented. Unfortunately, the first thing I remember seeing him in was this utterly tasteless made-for-TV movie, "It Couldn't Happen to a Nicer Guy." This was a "comedy" movie about rape made in 1974, back when straight white men ruled the world.

He was great as Bruce Willis’ dad in an episode of Moonlighting.

Looks like my financial woes are over! Watch out for those stairs, Dad!

Loved him in Goodfellas, and I love that movie. RIP, Mr. Sorvino.

Not sorry, if he really was a MAGAT.

Bye, bitch. Enjoy HELL.

Sorvino was fairly well known as being a huge diva.

Me too R1. RIP Paul Sorvino..

[quote] Me too R1. RIP Paul Sorvino..

Same here.

Then I realized I was confusing him with the guy from the Sopranos, James Gandolfini who died in 2013.

Good observation R54. Yes, a big HIT (see what I'm doing here?) on the mobsters this year.

Another who thought he died years ago. When I was a kid I did the stagedoor thing. He was very nice signing my souvenir program after TCS.

I liked him as the father in the early 2000s series That's Life, costarring Heather Paige Kent and Ellen Burstyn.

R17 he had a great singing voice.

The black dude from Lost and some androgynous boy.

Did Mira give him the Ivana treatment? Dead at the bottom of the staircase?

I thought he died years ago, too. He certainly hasn’t been active.

Danny Aiello died a few years ago, so maybe I had them mixed up. I miss those Italian 1970s-1980s guys. I didn’t realized Aiello was 86 when he died.

I thought he died a long time ago but I had him confused with the guy on the Sopranos because ya know all Italian fat guys look alike.

I'm sorry to hear this. I liked his work. I'm actually distantly related to him in some way, through my grandmother or something.

I just re-watched "Cruising" and he was so good as the burnt-out detective with dead eyes and a limp.

R28 Liar

He was quite tall

Don't forget, gays, that Paul was in A Touch of Class, for which I won my SECOND Oscar!

Another GOP voter gone. How sad!

What a sad coincidence. We've been talking about his daughter in Mira Sorvino is broke thread.

[quote] What a sad coincidence. We've been talking about his daughter in Mira Sorvino is broke thread.

And we've been discussing in this thread about the coincidence that we've been talking about his daughter in the Mira Sorvino is broke thread.

DL meta

So what was the deal about him having to have his left leg amputated a few months ago?

David Warner, now Paul. Who’s next? Death comes in threes.

#3 is always a late arrival....er...I mean departure.

r75 Can't you help Mira with fix that house?

I thought David Warner was David Hemmer.

Please welcome Tony Dow to our little triumvirate!

So his kids are from his first marriage and his third wife is a much younger MAGA cunt.

Will there be an estate war??

In 1972, my parents took me on a trip to New York City. They let me pick any Broadway show, and this is the one I chose. All three of us loved it. It was at the Booth, and afterward we went to Sardi's, where I swiped an ashtray.

Anyone here from Bensonhurst know where he lived growing up? His PS and high school?

[quote]Please welcome Tony Dow to our little triumvirate!

I thought James Caan kicked this off.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

[quote]She described Paul as a 'truly a great American' and military man who valued the right to bare arms.

I hope he used sunscreen.

Not. A. Nice. Man.

Wife looks cray.

Quelle surprise.

I thought he was dead already.

Is Mira a Trumptard?

Since you didn't pay us back the 100k we gave you in taxpayers money for that godawful movie where you have a twink boyfriend, we are selling it to Tubi. . . No we're going to play it at your funeral wake above the coffin.

R100, she's outspokenly liberal and her stepmom is probably appalled by much of what she tweets.

R102 they're the same age but the MAGAstepmom looks OLD
