New York actor William Hickey, weighing 120 pounds and 57 years old, earned an Academy Award nomination for supporting actor as Don Corrado Prizzi. He studied the Brooklyn Irish Italian dialect from Flushing to master the mob boss persona while staying close to his mother and his dog Bucky, even skipping a California move to remain in New York.
