I even like him in Straw Dogs, although the movie itself is kind of crepey.

I remember at some time in the 90's watching Romy and Michele's High School Reunion high on drugs and it clicking in a pre-imdb manner that her dad was the legendary "Vinnie, don't put too many onions in the sauce" guy in Goodfellas. RIP

Bad run for fictional gangsters period: Liotta, Caan, Tony Sirico (Paulie on The Sopranos), now Sorvino. Something I learned form the Sopranos book I'm reading: Sorvino refused to appear on the show because of its portrayal of Italian-Americans...which is weird. (He had his own sitcom on the air at the time, with a wholesome Italian-American family.)

― clemenza, Monday, 25 July 2022 19:56 (one year ago) link

(After he turned them down, I hope he finished with "Now I gotta turn my back.")

― clemenza, Monday, 25 July 2022 20:01 (one year ago) link

"Sorvino refused to appear on the show because of its portrayal of Italian-Americans"

he was possibly too much of a real Sopranos character for his own good!

so few mentions of his run on Law and Order.

As well as his acting work, we should salute Paul Sorvino for starting a dog adoption organisation with his daughter Amanda in 2002 that they called - yes - DogFellas. pic.twitter.com/g3almKmg1E
