Appeared in "Fathom" and "Death Wish 2" among many others. Rest in peace, sir.

For me he'll always be the mafioso from "Across 220th street". He made an impressive performance.

Thanks, Neville. I was beginning to think I was getting old. Tony Francisosa was pretty "big time" in the 70's.

I'm sort of a by product from the 80s, but that movie is a classic.

Ironically, Franciosa was once married to Shelley Winters, who also died not long ago.
