Actor Anthony Borgese  (also know as Tony Darrow) who played Sonny Bunz in the movie Goodfellas and Larry Boy Barese on The Sopranos was charged Friday with extortion. Along with a member of the Gambino crime family, Borgese is accused of assaulting a man in an attempt to collect money the man owed to a loan shark.

Now that’s good casting.

The 70 year old actor was released on $750,000 bond and pleaded not guilty to the charges. This guy is 70 and strong-arming people who owe money to loan sharks? When I’m 70 I’ll be happy with remembering my own name and not pissing on myself every time I cough. Or sneeze. Or inhale.

Borgese has said, “Most of my friends from the old neighborhood are either dead or in jail. Sometimes I wonder, ‘Why did God forget me?’”

I guess he remembers you now??

    He’s 70? wow he looks in his 50’s at most, and that, is indeed, a great tie.
