Bruno Kirby died. I'm starting Saturday morning totally bummed.
I loved Bruno Kirby.
Baby fish mouth. You made a woman meow?

What a guy!

What's your favorite Bruno Kirby moment, in what film.

RIP Bruno!

1. the limo driver in Spinal Tap
not just his lines but his EXPRESSIONS - priceless - and gawd, how I loved his voice. To me Bruno was one of those actors who stole the movies he was in - yes.

2. Everybody Seems To Be Overlooking One Of His Best Roles

Lots of talk about "Good Morning Viet Nam" and those Billy Crystal westerns. But what about his flawless portrayal of the young Clemenza in "Godfather II"? I think he was so authentic, broken English and all, that people have forgotten what is perhaps the most prestigious role of his career. Sorry we lost him.....

5. I loved Bruno - he was one of those actors you were always glad to see
Three weeks from diagnosis to death - awful. :(

6. Yeah, he was good.....
always a pleasure to see him in a film. He was the perfect young Clemenza in Godfather II.
