    Just saw him recently on Entourage.

    He had a good career as a character actor.

      He was in a ton of stuff, and usually did well. Personally, I liked him in Sleepers and Spinal Tap. Too very different roles. Very good in both.

        Sad, so sad. I didn't even know he was sick. I first noticed him in The Harrad Experiment when I saw it on cable in the early 1980s.

        Bruno Kirby on IMDB.

            Finally, a chance for me to make a relevant City Slickers 2 joke and I've got nothing. Nothing!

            Inspiration be a harsh mistress.
