Ugh, and this was just as he was having a comeback, too. I thought he was good in last year's The Many Saints of Newark, and Marriage Story. RIP! A Big one.

No other actor in the history of film could be menacing and/or sleazy quite the way Ray could. And he could play a sweetheart just as well... though where's the fun in that? Gone way too soon. Thanks for everything, legend.

RIP Ray.......an actor who had a great ability to suggest a sudden snapping point and volatility....and in his best performances he's performing to cover up another side of himself. Not merely a "cool" actor - though he certainly was that .......he was also quite a unique one across his characters too

This fucking sucks. One of the absolute best, most vividly vilely wonderful character actors of the last 40 years. Something Wild to The Many Saints of Newark via, what, Field of Dreams, Heartbreakers, Narc, Blow, Observe and Report, fucking Bee Movie, Place Beyond the Pines, Marriage Story, The Iceman, the mountain of magic is stacked high. When was he not one of the highlights of whatever he was in? Atop it all, of course, Scorsese dream casting, and the gift from which a thousand gifs were born. To RayTo God

RIP.
Amazing, iconic performance as Henry Hill in Goodfellas that fully deserved an Oscar nomination for Best Actor nomination, and would have been a worthy win. Not many actors can claim to have overshadowed Robert DeNiro in a Scorsese film at the peak of his powers, but Ray Liotta is in that rare club, which speaks to his talent. I don't think Leonardo DiCaprio's performance in The Wolf Of Wall Street would exist as it does, without Liotta's work as Hill to guide him. He did some excellent work in other films like Narc, Something Wild and Copland, but spent most of his career as a constantly working character actor, delivering solid professional work almost all the time. But he hit greatness a couple of times in his prolific career, and will always be remembered because of it .

I am going to rewatch Narc tonight. Holding back tears is simply not possible.

Wow, this stings hard and like TheRealComicMan said he was having a good run the past couple of years. RIP! Should've won the Best Actor Oscar for Goodfellas and along with Morgan Freeman in Shawshank gave arguably the greatest film narration in American cinema history with Goodfellas.
