  • An old adage reminds us that "character is what you do when no one is watching." Steve Buscemi, the acclaimed actor, exemplified this maxim on September 11, 2001, when he reported to Ground Zero and worked with his old unit, Engine Company 55, in Manhattan. Without fanfare, press conferences, or public declarations, Buscemi worked alongside other firefighters in the aftermath of the attacks. It was only later, through chance encounters and quiet disclosures, that the public learned of his selfless actions that day. And so, it's fitting that Buscemi, a man of character, is best known for his work as a character actor - bringing depth, nuance, and complexity to the roles he's played on screen, just as he brought courage, compassion, and humility to his work on and after that fateful day.

    We can't forget Escape from L.A. Even if you want to. Steve and Bruce Campbell are the highlights of that movie

    Here's an interesting (sad) trivia: Does anyone remember the character "Benny" from the movie Leon: The Professional? His real name is Keith A. Glascoe. Turns out he was also a firefighter during the 9/11 attacks, but unfortunately he passed away in the midst of the rescue that he and others performed during that time.

  • @jtgd
    @jtgd 8 дней назад +10

    Nothing happened to him, other than living his life and doing what he loves.
    He has my respect for responding to 9/11 despite never needing to, and risking his health and life, while deliberately hiding his identity to do it.
    Really good guy, and Im proud to be a fan

      @sgtjohnnywallsmith8720 8 дней назад +3

      It's a great show. I wish they had made more seasons of it. It blew my mind when I found out that the actor that played Arnold Rothstein, Michael Stuhlberg, played Griffin in MIB 3. He was the alien that could see all the different ways a universe could turn out and saw them all play out at the same time. Talk about polar opposites as far as roles go. That show had so many great actors. The guy thar played Chaulkie White was great. I heard gmhe passed away here not to long ago. But my favorite was the character Mickey Doyle. The actor played that role perfectly.

  • @skrachvynl
    @skrachvynl 8 дней назад +9

    Steve is a national treasure! I wish we would have seen more of Tony B in the Sopranos. Also he had good turns in King of New York and as Ellen's dad in The Adventures of Pete & Pete.

  • @Yvolve
    @Yvolve 8 дней назад +6

    He is one of those actors with endless range. From Reservoir Dogs to Con Air to Grown Ups to The Death of Stalin and of course The Big Lebowski.
    Everything he does is believable, genuine and seems like he is just playing his own personality, but then you watch another movie with him and you realise he is that convincing. I haven't watched any of his movies and not liked his performance.
    What an absolute legend!

  • @MusicalJourneysThruCinema
    @MusicalJourneysThruCinema 8 дней назад +12

    Spy Kids 2 and Monsters Inc were my introductions to him as a kid. After that came his Adam Sandler roles and after that came his more serious roles in Fargo and Reservoir Dogs

  • @Locadel2003
    @Locadel2003 8 дней назад +24

    Still can’t believe he wasn’t nominated or at least recognized at the academy for his roles in “Fargo” or “Reservoir Dogs” and also he was hilarious in “Airheads”, “The wedding singer” and “The big Lebowski” but his death scene here was actually so sad

  • @Locadel2003
    @Locadel2003 8 дней назад +10

    I think in the 90s was stealing scenes in a lot of big movies like “Con Air”, “Armageddon”, “Big Daddy”, “Desperado” and that masterpiece of “Fargo”. He was excellent and so fun to watch

    Buscemi's great acting most likely can be contributed to the fact he studied at the Lee Strasberg theatre and film institute. It is considered one of the best to study at because of their specific teaching methods and actors like Marlon Brando also attended.

    Steve is both loved and underappreciated.
    He'd always been one of the Sandler sidekicks to me until Boardwalk.
    I remember being 22 and seeing Boardwalk Empire when it was released.
    That show is so underrated and his performance was amazing.

    THANK YOU! somebody besides me actually liked ConAir for what it is! Its not a staple or a throwback. But it was nice and entertaining. And now i may actually watch it again since the last time i watched it was in probably early 2000s. That would have been the second time, i think i watched it. But i remember my first time watch ConAir was in theater...

    Fun fact (..well, for me..) he directed me as a featured extra in Portlandia. My "role" never really amounted to much (I was there to learn more about the behind the scenes than to try to be an actor anyway), but it was a great experience and he was a very cool guy.

    He does pronounce his name boo-semi but knows it's incorrect, stating, "I had to go to Sicily to learn I pronounce my own name incorrectly" I've just looked this up as I always pronounced it boo-shemi, which is in fact correct 😊
    He's a fabulous actor & seems to be a decent person too. I'm sorry to hear he lost his wife at such a young age - may she rest in peace.
