Got this far
Has been cast in six movies by Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, more appearances in Coen Brothers films than any other actor, exceeding by two films Frances McDormand, John Turturro and John Goodman. His character died in three of them: Miller's Crossing (1990), Fargo (1996), and The Big Lebowski (1998).
So that seems that he didn't die in 3 not 1Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams
