It was that trio of performances that established him as pop culture&#8217;s no-nonsense tough guy. Roles in high-profile projects such as <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=cop%20land&#038;mod=AP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Copland<\/a><\/em> and as a recurring character on <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/search?q=the+sopranos&#038;mod=AP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Sopranos<\/a><\/em> followed, and Vincent even parlayed his success into the 2006 offbeat self-help book <em>A Guy&#8217;s Guide to Being a Man&#8217;s Man<\/em>. Despite his gruff on-screen persona, Vincent was considered one of the nicest guys in the industry &#8212; a sharp contrast from the characters that made him famous. Above I&#8217;ve embedded my favorite on-screen moment from Frank Vincent, the infamous &#8220;go get your shinebox&#8221; scene from <em>Goodfellas<\/em>. Due to the clip&#8217;s extreme language and violence, it is NSFW, so you are best waiting until you get home to check it out. Until then, I encourage you to take a few minutes to think about Vincent&#8217;s unforgettable career and reflect on a cinematic hood with a heart of gold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veteran character actor great Frank Vincent died yesterday at the age of 80 due to complications from heart disease.
