RIP Gastone Moischin

[Insidious Von]

His name is almost unrecognizable in North America, the versatile French/Italian actor had superstar status in Europe.

He has over 90 film credits to his name, but in North America he's remembered for Don Fanucci.

 

[Insidious Von]

He made Friends of Mine a year later, playing a cuckold (bandaged head). Almost unrecognizable.

Ma ce.

Don Fanucci, I know.

 

[Insidious Von]

Brilliant character actor, part Chris Farley, part Vincent Dionofrio.

He is the last of the Friends of Mine actors. The others, Ugo Tognazzi (Barbarella, La Cage aux Folles), Phillipe Noiret (Cinema Paradiso) and Dominic Del Prete (The Valachi Papers).

Don Fanucci lays down the law - capisci paisano!
