Midnight Run is one of my favourite films of all-time. Excellent cast, and he was perfect opposite DeNiro.

Never get tired of watching it. Great fun.  Grodin was really good in that and a brilliant double act with De Niro.  Hard to believe he was 82 now.  I feel old.  Marv was good too  ;D
That's just, like your opinion man.

John Ashton! Brilliant. Saw interview with him few months back. Very funny, humble guy who couldn't believe his luck with his roles. Dennis Farina too. "Is that moron number two? Put me on to moron number one!"  Some great lines in that show.

Barney Curley

https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/racing/barney-curley-renowned-gambler-and-trainer-dies-aged-81-1.4573050
Born and brought up in Irvinestown in Co Fermanagh, Curley abandoned plans to be a priest in favour of becoming a professional gambler and came to public prominence over the Yellow Sam betting coup at Bellewstown races in 1975.

Curley masterminded a plot that revolved around a friend pretending to be on a prolonged phone call to a dying aunt from the sole call box at the racecourse.

It meant off-course bookmakers were prevented from cutting Yellow Sam's starting 'SP' and the Curley owned horse won at 20-1 despite being widely backed in betting shops .

Estimates of up to €2 million at today's rates were scooped in winnings.
