“I loved Bruce MacVittie,” Pacino told The New York Times. “His performances were always glistening and crackling; a heart and a joy to watch. He was the embodiment of the struggling actor in New York City, and he made it work. We will miss him.”

For one of his final roles, MacVittie played Detective Hartigan in the Netflix show “When They See Us.”
