Pasquale Cajano

Pasquale Cajano (born Pasquale Cagiano August 19, 1921 - October 24, 2000) was an Italian-American film actor. After two uncredited cameo appearances in "The Age of Innocence" and "Where Evil Lies", Cajano gained more fame when he was cast by his friend Martin Scorsese in the 1995 crime drama "Casino" as the Mafia Boss Remo Gaggi, based on the real-life mob boss Joseph Aiuppa.

After "Casino", Cajano went on with small roles in certain films, like "Big Night", "Sleepers", and "The Impostors" (another uncredited role). Cajano was then cast alongside his "Casino" co-star Robert De Niro in the hit comedy "Analyze This". Pasquale Cajano was also a well known Italian radio personality for many years on the Italian Communications Network radio (www.icnradio.com).

On October 24, 2000, Cajano died due to prostate cancer at age 79.
