Vincent Schiavelli dies

We've heard the sad news that character actor Vincent Schiavelli, best known to Burton fans as the Organ Grinder in Batman Returns, has died of lung cancer. The 57 year old actor had a long and varied career in both TV and film, and while he never became a household name, his face was familiar to millions of movie fans. He will be missed.

    All I have to say is that you've waited a little too long to post a news story. The month is almost over. Unless you post one every few days, you won't have much. Again, another Burton actor has died. Who is next? I don't know Vincent at all, but I am sorry for his death.

  2. We post news as soon as we're made aware of it. Sometimes that's a little after the fact, since computer problems and real life distractions mean we can't be monitoring online news 24/7. To be honest, there hasn't been much Burton news lately other than his involvement with Believe It or Not, which still hasn't been officially confirmed.

    An organ grinder is the guy who kills Batman and grings his liver, small intenstine, splean, etc. into a big machine to make hotdogs for the masses. DUH!

    but the organ grinder wasn't in batman returns was he??????? it was cat woman and the penguin boy in batman returns, i don't remember an organ grinder at all. especially seeing as i watched the movie for the first time 2 days ago on dvd as i got it for christmas. Good movie by the way!!!! love cat woman. she rocks.But i'm sure he was a very good actor and it is sad to here that most of the actors in tim burtons films are dieing so suddenly. i bet he will be teribly missed by the tim burton fans who actually know who the guy is.

    I rember him in Batman Returns. You can't forget his face, he was in so many movies. I think he only had a couple of lines, but I don't rember him being called the organ grinder. He was one of the penguins minions. I'm pretty sure if you look him up, you'll know who he is.

    puede que no me entiendan, pero yo si comprendo lo que quieren decir... cuando muere el ídolo de una persona la cual no conoces pero que es tu gran influencia, sientes cosas inexplicables... Vincent debe estar en otros lugares, en otros mundos de fantasía, desde aquí, los mejores deseos en su nueva travesía...

    It's "Life isn't easy for the pin cushion queen, when she sits on her throne, pins push through her spleen." It's too bad about Vincent, that's really sad news.

    I wonder why TBC never talked about Depp being nominated at the Golden Globes for besta actor in a comedy/musical for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory...? Well maybe because it's not really "tim burton news", oh well thought some of you who dodn't know might be excited.
