    Well, my day is now ruined. :(
    I got to meet Reni once, near NBC in Burbank back in 1978 or '79. He was very friendly and took five minutes out to talk to me.
    He was one of my favorite character actors, equally adept at comedy (He was great in Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid) or drama.
    I've been on a Dirty Harry binge lately and have re-watched all of the films several times. His Chico Gonzalez was the perfect foil for Harry Callahan; I wish he would have remained his partner throughout the entire series. [​IMG]

    The first thing I remember seeing him in was Bad Boys with Sean Penn. R.I.P.

    R.I.P. I always enjoyed his character in whatever role he was playing.

    Remember him mainly from The Late Shift – the movie about Leno and Letterman competing for Johnny's spot. He played NBC executive John Agoglia.

    He and Bob Balaban (as Warren Littlefield) were fun to watch playing off one another.

    Rest easy, Mr. Santoni.

    He played Vallesecca in Howard Stern's Private Parts, too.

    Only last week I saw Enter Laughing during TCM's Carl Reiner tribute.

    In his intro, host Ben Mankiewicz made mention of this scene of him with Jose Ferrer, Elaine May, Richard Deacon, and Rob Reiner.

    Hilarious.

    RIP Reni.
