I cant tell on his resume if all his roles were Mafioso or not. Do guys like this have any credibility as actors?

He was a cop in "West New York" but that was a low budget independent project. It was a decent movie though.

I am rewatching Mob Justice The Hunt for Gus Farace. This guy is a good actor.

You question his credibility as an actor simply because he's often typecast? What a bizarre, illogical connection to make.

I say good on him. He's made a great career out of playing those charachters and he clearly has no desire to starting playing other roles.

He was Jennifer Aniston's father in "She's The One".
And he is great as a gangster.

In addition to the other roles mentioned he played fathers in "Grind" and "She's the One" with no mafia ties. :)'

Performances are always reliant on the writing they're given - and with the right writing, Mr. Vincent (as well as the hundreds of other New York-based Italian actors who were stereotyped during the Italian-Mafia minstrel shows of the 1970's and 80's) has moved me greatly. His eyes can convey a lifetime. Check out his stint on the Sopranos if you need proof.
