"Girls, this is Lou. Lou, these are girls."

Also great as Bacala, Sr. when he offed Mustang Sally.

 

[Gutter]

RIP … waiting for Springsteen by the limo in the sky.

He had many great lines in the Rocky franchise, but this is his best scene.

 

[Bubbler]

Have to admit ... I thought he died a while ago.

Same for Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, but I saw some clickbait today that said he's touring.

Wow 86? I thought he was Young…

Man he's got a laundry list of credits but he always had that one role. What's funny is I probably saw him in a bunch of his gigs but never really could pick him out. Mark of a good actor. I couldn't say: oh hey, I remember him!

RIP

A little bit of before he was famous Burt Young ...



"Across 110th Street" ... what a movie (and soundtrack). Paul Benjamin (the shooter here) is amazing in it.

 

[Baron Scicluna]

Apparently, Young also was a professional boxer, and claimed he was unbeaten in 14 bouts.

This was a deleted scene from Rocky Balboa, but Young puts on a great performance. RIP

 

[Sea Bass]

So he was only 36 in the first Rocky????

Can't imagine anyone else playing Paulie. He owned it.

Great career. RIP

 

[BTExpress]

Played a loan shark collector in at least two movies (Rocky II and The Gambler). Made for that kind of role.

 

[Starman]

Can't imagine anyone else playing Paulie. He owned it.

Great career. RIP

Pesci or DeVito.

 

[Starman]

Paulie meets his true love
