This just in... Abe Vigoda is still alive

But Richard Bright isn't. The dude who played Corelone henchman Al Neri in The Godfather movies...

...was hit by a bus as it rounded the corner of Columbus Avenue and 86th Street at about 6:30 p.m., and was pronounced dead at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center shortly thereafter, the police said.

Wonderful character actor. We all remember the Al Pacinos and Dustin Hoffmans but it's these guys who really make for great films.

That's too bad. You're so right about character actors, too. They really are the meat and potatoes of the movie world. I'm still bummed over the recent deaths of Vincent Schiavelli and Charles Rocket. Seeing the "Bosom Buddies" post below also reminded me that Wendie Jo Sperber (who played Amy, the girl who lusted after Henry) had recently died.

All of these struck me pretty hard, as I had many fond memories of each actor. Damn.
