{{Short description|American actor (1930–1985)}} {{more citations needed|date=January 2020}} {{Use mdy dates|date=July 2018}} '''Mainer Patrick Hines''' (March 17, 1930 in Burkeville, Texas – August 12, 1985 in Manhattan, New York) was an American actor who was probably best known for his portrayal of Kapellmeister Giuseppe Bonno in the 1984 film ''Amadeus''. He also appeared as Samuel Chase in the film ''1776''. Other films include ''The Brink's Job'', ''Bloodrage'' and ''A Passage to India''.

==Stage== On Broadway Hines was a character actor; he made his debut as Friar Pete in the 1957 production of ''Measure for Measure'' in a cast which included Norman Lloyd and Ellis Rabb. In 1972, he appeared alongside the original cast of ''Pippin'' at the Kennedy Center tryout as the Abbot. The monastery sequence, and by extension his role, was cut early into previews and he left the show before it transferred to Broadway. He created the role of Orsini-Rosenberg in the original New York production of ''Amadeus'' and appeared with Rex Harrison in the 1979 revival of Shaw's ''Caesar and Cleopatra'' in the role of Pothinus. Other shows include roles in ''The Iceman Cometh'', with Jason Robards Jr., and ''The Devils''.

==Death== In 1985, Hines died of a heart attack at the age of 55.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1985/08/15/arts/patrick-hines-actor-on-broadway-was-55.html|title = Patrick Hines, Actor on Broadway, Was 55|newspaper = The New York Times|date = August 15, 1985}}</ref>
