Many of the mob/mafia films out theyre (the more recent ones) have many of the same characters in them. to name a few....Robert Deniro,Al pacino,Chaz Palminteri,Joe Peschi...etc etc. The list goes on. Many of these movies use characters from other similar films. Name some of the characters (actors) youve seen repeated in more than 1 Mob flick.

James Caan in Mickey Blue Eyes. Al Pacino in Donnie Brasco and Dick Tracy. Joe Pesci in Casino and Goodfellas. John Travolta in Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty. Robert DeNiro in Analyze This, Once Upon a Time in America, Casino, Goodfellas, A Bronx Tale and The Untouchables. Most of the actors I mentioned obviously appeared in The Godfather trilogy.

Ray Liotta(one of my favorites). Vincent Frank, James Caan, Abe Vigoda, Andy Garcia, Joe Viterelli, and Chazz Palminterri. That's all I can think of right now.

Hi MPuzo2,

Speaking of Ray Liotta, did you see him in "Unlawful Entry"? (with Kurt Russell) I thought he was excellent in that one Good movie.

Good thread!

Frank Sivero is:-

Young Genco Abbandano in Godfather Part II &

Frankie Carbone in Goodfellas

Bruce Kirby is:

Young Peter Clemenza in Godfather Part II &
Nicky in Donnie Brasco

Both of these guys did great job in Part II.

the actor who plays Jimmy Whispers in "A Bronx Tale" appears in Goodfellas as 1 of the men working on the heist project. I think he also appears in Analyze This is an asassin hyred by Chazz Palminteri to murder Paul Vitti played by Robert Deniro. Chazz and Rob have made appearances/starred in both A Bronx Tale and Analyze this.

James Russo plays tough guy Paulie in Donnie Brasco, one of the key members of Sonny Black's crew.

I recently found out that one of his first movie
roles was as the character Bugsy in Once Upon A Time in America. Do you remember that guy? He is in the early 1920's scenes when Young Noodles and Young Max meet up. Bugsy and his crew beat up
Noodles and Max and murder the smallest guy,
Dominic. So Noodles sticks a knife into Bugsy
and goes to prison for a while.

Anyway, it just proves how even the lesser known actors in this genre of movie turn up here and there, just as Frank Sivero and Bruno Kirby mentioned in my earlier post.
