Henry Hill, The Real 'Goodfella', Dies
Henry Hill, the man portrayed by Ray Liotta in Martin Scorsese's mafia masterpiece Goodfellas, died at the age of 69 (stop snickering). It's been reported that Hill had suffered a heart attack a few weeks ago, eventually passing away in L.A.'s West Hills Hospital.
Lisa Caserta, Hill's long-time manager/girlfriend, tells the New York Post:
"I don't think he ever got over his demons. He would talk about how bad he felt about doing the things that he did."
In reference to Scorsese's flick, Caserta proclaimed "He always said it was 99.9 percent accurate."
Rest in peace, 'fella.
