As our friends over at TV Squad reported earlier today, character actor
Vincent Schiavelli, well-known for playing the eccentric characters so perfectly suited to his droopy-eyed visage,
passed away in Italy today of lung cancer at the age of 57. Schiavelli acted in over 150 films and television
shows, including One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Ghost, and Fast Times at Ridgemont
High. You may not have known his name if someone dropped it at a cocktail party, but one look at his face, and
you're bound to say, "Ohhhh! Him! Yeah, I know him! He's been in lots of movies!"

I simply hadn't known Vince passed away and has been gone all of these years. My friend from One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest was Sidney Lassick, the actor who played Dr. Cheswick.
