RIP DANNY AIELLO 1933-2019

Well known character and sometimes leading actor has died.

Danny Aiello began his screen acting career in 1973 with a role in "Bang The Drum Slowly" and several TV appearances in shows such as "Kojak".

He also had great roles in "The Godfather" and "Godfather Part 2" and will always be remembered by most people for those roles. I however remember him for a couple of very different roles.

One was in the "Tales From The Darkside" episode entitled "The Odds" and from one of my favorite films of all time..the Larry Cohen classic "The Stuff".

He was a versatile actor who could play just about any role, and I always liked him in anything I saw him in. He passed away on Dec. 12th, 2019 at the age of 86 from an infection.
