“ | I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. You tell the angels in heaven you never seen evil so singularly personified as you did in the face of the man who killed you. My name is Vincent Coccotti. | „ |
~ Vincenzo Coccotti |
Vincenzo Coccotti is one of the other antagonists in the 1993 action-romance film True Romance. He is portrayed by Academy Award winning actor Christopher Walken, who also portrayed Frank White in King of New York, Max Zorin in A View To A Kill, Max Shreck in Batman Returns, Cornelius Hatcher in The Rundown, Sal Maggio in Kangaroo Jack, Colonel Cutter in Antz and King Louie in The Jungle Book.
Role
Vincenzo Coccotti is a Sicilian consigliere for local Detroit mobster "Blue" Lou Boyle. Sent with some hitmen to the abode of Mr. Clifford Worley, the estranged father of Clarence Worley whom they tracked down by Clarence's driver's license, accidentally left behind at Drexl Spivey's place. Coccotti tries to get the current whereabouts of Clarence and more importantly Boyle's drugs. However, he quickly underestimates his hit, as Clifford turns out to be an incredibly difficult character. And during this time Vincent's learns that his wife C.R. is being held hostage at the address that they find on the fridge. Clifford not only never reveals anything he knows of Clarence, he goes so far as to personally offend Coccotti by telling him that Sicilians were "spawned by ni--ers" (after realizing that he is going to die anyway). Angry, yet impressed with Cliff's bravery, Coccotti gives him an affectionate kiss on the cheek, and guns him down. The trip is not wasted however, as one of the henchmen find information on Clarence's whereabouts stuck to the refrigerator. Coccotti then orders his men to "fix this f-ed up family for good" by hunting down Clarence and killing him. Vincenzo is not seen again for the rest of the movie.
