Scurti, who has worked with Leary in the past movie The Ref, is a wonderful actor. His portrayl of Lt. Kenny Shea, or "Lou" in Rescue Me is supberb. In the sea of talent in that show he is second only to Leary himself. Whether Scurti is delivering a perfectly timed joke, or a heart wrenching dramatic preformance, it is always very convincing. I wish John Scurti would show up in more movies, last picture he was seen in was War of the Worlds, playing the ferry capatain. Scurti has unbelievable talent and deserves more recognition.
