Legendary actor Paul Sorvino has died aged 83.

As Paul Cicero in Goodfellas he taught generations how to slice garlic like a true Boss. Rest in Peace. 💙pic.twitter.com/nJPPEtgHBl

I didn't realize he was only 51 when Goodfellas came out. I always thought he was much older than that.

I'm not going to lie, I thought he was already dead.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

I did a movie with him about 10 years ago. Interesting guy but not someone I would have wanted to work with again.

One of my fav Oscar moments was when Mira Sorvino won Best Supporting Actress for Mighty Aphrodite and took a moment yo thank her father, Paul Sorvino, who was visually moved.

Didn't he basically say Harvey Weinstein was greenlit several years ago when all of that crap unfolded and that he better go to jail quick bc he'll kill him if they ever cross paths?

He refused to come out of his trailer and held up production for things he wanted but didn't previously request. That is now an automatic call to their agent. Don't care who they are.

Other than that it he wasn't too bad but he was extremely full of himself and would try to make himself front and center in every scene even when the lead Oscar winning actress was the focus. He sang happy birthday to himself and referred to himself the 5th Tenor which was a little weird.
