Henry started out in the Actors Studio, after passing an audition for Elia Kazan and Lee Strasberg. A play he worked on at the Studio moved onto Broadway to rave reviews and the rest as they say is history. Henry told of meeting Frank Sinatra , visiting him on the set of <em>Some Came Running<\/em> at MGM and working with him on <em>The Manchurian Candidate<\/em>. What a cool guy, but he was being interviewed for a Euro Crime documentary that Mike is putting together and so he mainly spoke of his experiences in Italy and working with great directors like Umberto Lenzi and Fernando Di Leo. I wrote about one of Silva&#8217;s and DiLeo&#8217;s collaborations in an earlier post, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmforno.com\/?p=789\">Il Boss<\/a>. Anyway it was a great pleasure to meet the funny, talented, energetic Henry Silva. Dear Producers and Directors call him, give him a part in your latest epic. He&#8217;s great, check him out in Jim Jarmusch&#8217;s <em>Ghost Dog<\/em>.<br \/>\n<object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/hh-xR-OE824&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/hh-xR-OE824&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><\/embed><\/object><br \/>\n<em>Here is Henry in the opening of Il Boss<\/em><br \/>\n<object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/f0IEZb9ESzk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/f0IEZb9ESzk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><\/embed><\/object><br \/>\n<em>Here&#8217;s the trailer for Johnny Cool<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to my pal Mike Malloy I had the great good fortune to meet an icon of Cinema, Henry Silva!
