"Character actor Bruno Kirby, 57, dies LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Bruno Kirby, a veteran character actor who co-starred in "When Harry Met Sally," "City Slickers" and many other films, has died at age 57, his wife said Tuesday. Kirby died Monday in Los Angeles from complications related to leukemia, according to a statement from his wife, Lynn Sellers. He had recently been diagnosed with the disease. "We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support we have received from Bruno's fans and colleagues who have admired and respected his work over the past 30 years," his wife said. "Bruno's spirit will continue to live on not only in his rich body of film and television work but also through the lives of individuals he has touched throughout his life." Kirby was perhaps best known for his roles opposite Billy Crystal in 1989's "When Harry Met Sally" and 1991's "City Slickers." Other film credits included "Good Morning, Vietnam," "The Godfather: Part II" and "Donnie Brasco." More recently, he played Phil Rubenstein on the HBO series "Entourage.""

No shit. I'm just amazed that they put City Slickers ahead of The Godfather: Part II on his list of works.

well he had a bigger role in City Slickers. It sucks he was on Entourage a few weeks ago.

^^^well when you throw a dozen exclamation points and question marks after something, it looks like you're surprised or in disbelief.

Marlon Brando, star of such films as Don Juan Demarco and The Island of Dr. Moreau, has died.

Other works include The Godfather and On The Waterfront.

To be fair, though, Kirby's parts in When Harry Met Sally and City Slickers were much bigger than the Godfather II role. I doubt most people would know he was in it at all unless they spent some time tooling around on IMDB.
