RayLiotta has died.

I am sorry to hear this. He played Shoeless Joe Jackson in my favourite film, Field of Dreams.

I loved him in Goodfellas - a cracking film. 67 is no age.

I've just been speaking to my son and told him Ray Liotta had died to which he replied "oh no! not Ray Liotta out of Goodfellas" also one of his favourite films. There's only one Ray Liotta as far as I know! .

Yes a shame he was only 67, no great age these days.

It's very sad. Gone far too young.

MiniMoon I like Field of Dreams, watched it more than once. RL’s part in it was very different from a lot of his roles. Such a good looking man when he was young, he really didn’t age well imo. Still acted his socks off in the film last year.

Sorry to hear although 67 is not ‘far too young’. I’ve become very realistic nowadays. RIP

DD2 is ‘gutted’ according to the text she sent earlier.

We'll have to agree to disagree then Bluesky. As the average age is 80+ I think 67 is far too young.

i fell in love with him in the film corrina corrina, i thought he was gorgeous. so sad that he has died at a young age, i read that he died in his sleep in the dominican republic while filming.

Yes Grandmabatty I agree in theory.

Aw, such sad news. I'm going to have to watch Field of Dreams again. I'd forgotten he was in that. He was beautiful when he was young.

I ve never heard of this man seems I m the only person who hasn’t ?

No, I haven't heard of him either...

No, blueBelle, you are not!

?? I have company hooray

He was in a Silvester Stallon film called Cop Land, he was very good too.

Watched a film he was in last night, I liked him.

Goodfellas was my absolute favourite film too.
Scorsese’s finest imo.
Liotta missed out on the Best Actor Oscar; while Pesci won Best Supporting.

Goodfellas was an absolute favourite film of ours.

I remember many years ago being in a trivia quiz and the question was "How many times was the F word used in the opening scene of the film Goodfellas ?" I can't remember the answer now but I'm going to have to watch the film again today

RIP Ray Liotta

I love the scene when Henry and Karen are taken through the night club into the kitchens.
Such breathtaking cinematography.

(I’m not a fan of Field of Dreams though )

FannyCornforth I’d argue that Raging Bull is Scorsese’s finest film but only because of De Niro’s performance in it. I’ve only watched it twice whereas I’ve watched Goodfellas several times and enjoy it just as much each time.

Gdh I know that it’s not a popular choice, but I adore Gangs of New York.
It’s so over the top and atmospheric. Day Lewis at his wonderful, terrifyingly best.
But Cameron Diaz is so miscast, it nearly spoils it for me

It’s sort of ‘official’ that Raging Bill is the best, isn’t it
De Niro was so utterly brilliant, and now seems to be doing a belting job of trashing his own legacy
