Who would you do Friday: Jews in movies

Tonight marks the beginning of Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement. So without further ado, let’s discuss men who have played Jews in movies or on tv.

1. Harry from When Harry met Sally

2. Jerry Seinfeld (Sorry, couldn’t resist The Puffy Shirt)

5. Puck from Glee

6. Michael Fassbender as  Magneto!!! Best for last!!!
