Wallach was born on December 7th, 1915 in Brooklyn, New York to Jewish parents, and subsequently became one of the few Jewish kids growing up in an Italian neighborhood.

As fine as an actor as he was, I found his portrayl of a don, almost laughable.... [/QB]
Excuse me. Can't seem to get anything right, can I Johnny?

Care to explain why you think his performance is so abysmal?
