aka Billy Batts aka Phil Leonardo. Great actor, also a musician in the 60s who helped Frankie Valli and the Four Season get their start. Hope someone brings him their f*ckin' shinebox.

Two of the best scenes in the Sopranos.

Tony chasing Phil and Phil nonchalantly tosses his ice cream cone then runs into the rear of a Boars Head delivery truck.

Phil gets whacked and the reaction from the kids as the wife's vehicle rolls over his head.

The ice cream toss was classic. That and when Phil was discussing the possibility of whacking Tony after Fat Dom had been killed in retaliation for Vito - "Do you know he once told me I looked like the Shah of Iran?!?!?!?"

He and Pesci grew up together, yet his character had to take savage beatings/murder from Pesci's in both Raging Bull and GoodFellas. He got to return the favor in Casino where his character beat Pesci's with a baseball bat and then buried him alive.

He got his revenge on Joe Pesci in Casino.



Freedom just around the corner for you. But with the truth so far off, what good will it do?
