There have been plenty of scary bad guys in the four seasons of âFargo,â Noah Hawleyâs masterful crime anthology series on the FX channel.
But none, not even Billy Bob Thorntonâs creatively ruthless hit man in season one, has been more chilling than season fourâs Gaetano Fadda, a mobster played by the remarkable 34-year-old Italian actor Salvatore Esposito in his English-language debut.
