Vincent Pastore, the character actor whose face and voice became synonymous with the moral complexity of American crime storytelling, died at 80 after a four-decade career that moved from the margins of cinema to the center of television's golden age. He found his widest recognition in HBO's 'The Sopranos,' a series that redefined what the medium could ask of its performers and its audiences. His passing is a quiet reminder that the most enduring work is often done by those who disappear into their roles rather than stand apart from them.
