He's such an impressive man, I just really love anything he's in because he's so talented.

It was inevitable that this man would end up in some sort of literary/verbal art form, wasn't it? The single best and most underrated actor in the business -- always riveting to watch.

My father used to do the same thing to little chasidic kids who would make fun of us when we walked through the side streets of yerushalyim. He would get down on one knee and in fluent Yiddish say "I understand u" and thier heads would explode

I do the same thing in Williamsburg or Boro Park. I usually, for the fun of it, ask for directions from hasidim. I do not look like a Hasid 😀. They do not know what to make of me. I learned my Yiddish from my grandparents. I've heard them speak and picked it up. Once I was riding an f train and there was a person going to Boro Park. He was from mea shamir in Jerusalem. He spoke Yiddish and I was able to give him directions. You never know!

So wonderful that he was able to grow up and learn the language. When my great grandparents moved here, they only spoke English. Not that Greek would have gotten me far but it would have been fun to experience.

I've always liked the performances this guy has provided as an actor, he always adds to the movie. He always brings a special feel to each role, while maintaining a certain constancy of character from one role to the next, yet each time with a bit of a twist as a different person. But it is his persona that comes across as likeable. I cannot imagine Warehouse 13 without him in it, he makes it; also there was that one movie where he peed his pants, it certainly worked I have to say. I am not Jewish but there are a great many Jews I admire. There are also bad ones, not to be admired. But I prefer to admire good things and leave the bad to their own demise, whomever they may be. Certain actors always add to a movie in my opinion, and this guy is one of them. I like Mandy Patinkin as well; although I would be unlikely to share his political views, I would think, but nonetheless, one must be able to separate out things so as to appreciate the person as a person and as a performer. We need not kill one another over politics, or theater. We should instead be thankful for good things, and be thankful to God most of all.

He was outstanding in death wish as a Subway (would be mugger) Bronson thwarted his attempt, didn't even recognize him,, he looked really really thuggish, very convincing role,as was herzfeld, they really looked the part of real bad thugs I was blown away, 😃😃
