R.I.P. Ernest Borgnine.

Borgnine was a better actor than most gave him credit for and his down-to-earth manners were a genuine joy to watch in his interviews. I'll always remember his portrayal of the title character in "Marty" as one of the great characterizations in movie history.

Oddly enough, Sr. Vitelli and I were just talking about him last week.

He was picked on six of our lists.
