Somewhere out there a motherfricking fool at Waylon-Yutani still hasn’t had a proper sit down to discuss the bonus situation.

Special Agent Alonzo Mosley

“- Alonzo Mosely: You're gonna spend ten years for impersonating a federal agent.
- Jack Walsh: Ten years for impersonating a fed, huh?
- Alonzo Mosely: Ten years.
- Jack Walsh: How comes no one's after you?”

Literally great in every performance, large or small.

The proto-Forrest Whitaker. A working man's James Earl Jones.

Fine, fine actor.

This is the first film I remembered him from (1978). Brutal movie. Great actor. RIP.

He reluctantly got on board with Warden Brubaker's plan and helped find the bodies.

Richard 'Dickie' Coombes : I don't get men like you, you're all dangerous men. You start wars and you let other people fight them, you come in and say 'do this, do that, think this way, walk this way', you put a sign in some fool's hand and say 'follow me around I've got the whole thing figured out, so you can change things for the better! Well that's a lot of bullshite! There's only one thing you do - that's get people killed!

I most fondly remember Kotto as Lt. Giardello on the stellar "Homicide: Life on the Street." It's criminally underrated and highly influential.

He gave his character on Homicide a gravitas that came naturally. Whoever cast him did a masterful job, because he was totally believable.
