Bruno Kirby, a veteran character actor known for playing the best friend in two of Billy Crystal's biggest comedies "When Harry Met Sally" and "City Slickers," has died. He was 57.

Kirby died Monday in Los Angeles from complications related to leukemia, his wife Lynn Sellers said in a statement Tuesday. He had been recently diagnosed with the disease.

...

In 1974, he scored a role in "The Godfather: Part II," which won several Academy Awards, including best picture. In the film, Kirby played young "Pete Clemenza," following Richard S. Castellano's role in the first installment.

He did a memorable job playing the young Pete Clemenza. The rug scene was one of the best.

RIP

I don't think Brando got this many threads...
Brando's death wasn't a surprise to me! I didn't even know Kirby was ill.

He was just in an episode of Entourage. I'm really, really shocked.


Hey, how's it going?
