RIP JON POLITO, A FAVORITE OF THE COEN BROTHERS, 65.
In addition to his Coen brothers films, Polito was one of those character actors who was everywhere – from Michael Mann’s hip Chicago and Vegas-based Crime Story series in the mid-80s to The Crow to the “man purse” episode of Seinfeld (as the superintendent for Jerry’s apartment building), even the first Atlas Shrugged movie in 2011. As the Onion’s AV Club notes, “He may have been frequently typecast as the gruff heavy, but there were few who could make those often-thankless roles sing like Jon Polito.”
