Keith Knight made his screen debut as Larry 'Fink' Finkelstein in the 1979 comedy Meatballs. As comfortable on stage as he was in front of the camera, Keith Knight starred in the first play Michael Hennessy ever directed, "June and the Paycock" in 1976. He is often remembered for his role as Hollis in My Bloody Valentine where he gets shot in the head, close up, by a nail gun. Keith Knight was 51 when he died in Toronto of brain cancer.
