nypost.comCrossword-Solver reviewed almost 3,000 movie scripts to find the actors that have dropped the most F-bombs in their careers, as well as the old favorites “sh–” and “hell.”Starting with the F-word, Newark-born Joe Pesci has dropped the explicative 272 times in all of his movies – more than any other actor.While the actor was infamous for his F-word rant in “Goodfellas” as gangster Tommy DeVito — “You said I’m funny.
