The incredible thing about watching this movie is watching and feeling for Lefty, and never once even thinking of Michael Corleone.
It seems like that should be such an obvious point to make, but you are right it just completely passes you by as you watch
Well put
Now when I see Corleone,I think of Lefty,Damn.😅just kidding,good point.
That's Al Pacino for you. I saw this movie not long after watching _Carlito's Way_ and I saw that not long after watching _Heat_ and I saw that not long after watching all 3 parts of _The Godfather_ which I saw not long after watching _Scarface._
In each and every movie you expect Pacino to be the last guy he played but he's not. He very quickly convinces you that he's THAT guy you are seeing.
Contrast that to Robert De Niro (from 90s onwards), Tommy Lee Jones (think _The Fugitive_ ) and Morgan Freeman (think _Shawshank Redemption_ ) and unlike them, Pacino is a completely different guy each and every time.
like saying you think of scarface when watching this movie. lol. he's just a good actor.
Poor Lefty. He got demoted from "a friend of ours" to "a friend of mine" in one scene.
to a friend I once knew.
Dynamite guy
When he said, "Just so you know," sounded just like Tony Montana.
I was thinking the exact same thing! Even though he plays a powerful character here (and in many other films) in that moment, it's hard to imagine him sitting down sulking in the boat compared to the defiant Tony Montana character when you hear that voice!
Go no further Frank
ChiChi, get the yayo
Came to the comments to say this
Haha I thought that too lol
Such a great film with compelling character. Al Pacino played this one beautifully
This scene is brilliant in every way, but with the incredible music stepping 5:47 in at the right second, makes it perfect. The expression in Lefty's face, the moment his dream dies is utter mastery of acting.
That "King Court" match box was Sonny Black's way of telling Lefty he knows about the nightclub they wanted to keep secret from him! I finally realized what it meant....
Well I really don’t no what lefty was thinking Sonny was a captain pretty much his boss the fact that lefty try too keep that from him could of got him killed
Yeah but I wonder how Sonny black found out about kings court I don’t even think it explains it in the movie smh .
wow, cant anything past you
@@pugsly4489 He is a Sharp one .. lol
No shit Sherlock
Let’s give kudos to Johnny Depp and Al Pacino for their outstanding performances. They became their characters; without any phoniness. This is a must-watch film. 🎥
Totally agree
Pacino is great in this scene, I can’t even look at him.
I agree, I had to go to the bow I was so blown away.
@@Kloverkill I also agree but I don't wanna step on any toes or nothin.
😂
Yeah but he gets those two or three wines in him…
Jus so u kno
I think I would go insane standing on a boat in the Florida sun, wearing a suit while listening to Blondie. Might as well be the Sahara in a fur coat, also listening to Blondie.
Not a Blondie fan?
For a meeting?
@@knokkelmann1 a meeting would be worse. Especially if it's a meeting to prep for a meeting.
@@knokkelmann1 That's saying something...Are you trying to say something?
You might be demonstrating a failure to show appreciation
“Just so you know” Pacino went Scarface for a minute 😂
Al Pacino is just such an awesome actor...
“He’s a friend of ours”. Great storytelling
One has to remember that the real-life Lefty was only recently made a soldier by the time he met Joseph Pistone aka Donnie Brasco. Despite his long record as a "button man," he was a compulsive gambler who had large debts and this resulted in a delay of "opening the books." One of the conditions of being made in the Mafia was that one does not owe anyone large amounts of money.
I was just thinking that his gambling addiction may be a factor here. Rolling the dice that he can ride out any breach of protocol by breaking the chain of command. Trafficante is totally disgusted with him from the first. I am sure Red saw to that. But Lefty was taking a gamble greater than any that would play out in the tables at King’s Court. One hundred fucking dollars? He’s Lucky he never handed it over, another disgraceful insult waiting to happen. I am starting to think he is lucky he ever stepped off that boat.
When he said "go to the BOW", I stood up and started going
Lmao
lmao
What a movie this is. One of the best mob movies ever
3:10 We throw out "Just so you know" all the time
go to the BAOW, im gonna stay at the stern, go to da bow
Al and johnny are by far my favorite actors ever, they truly BECOME the character in all their movies its incredible, I'm always so invested to the point that i forget they're acting.
People in the 70s really knew how to party, I wish I was on that boat. Today everyone would just be staring at their phone doing nothing. I'm just a love machine!🕺
I was on a beach In Florida 30 years ago, everyone talking, eating drinking and laughing even some playing poker…..and swimming…
I was on a beach In Florida last week…….I seen introverts whom in 20 years will need neck braces all hunched over trying to OUT-Instagram each other on those phones…..
I’ll be on a beach in Florida in 30 years….not a cellular to be seen everyone will have brain implants to multiplex each other 5 feet away….
.....maybe at your parties.....
This was the 80s
u sound like a dude who never left his mothers basement in his life, and never been on a party in his life
@@davidkruse4030 This takes place in 1978. You probably wouldn't be seeing guys wearing leisure suits and dancing to disco at yacht party in the 80s.
The real Donnie Brasco was an extra in that scene, he was the guy in the white hat and shirt.
Correct..The man directly behind traficante when lefty first meets traficante..good eye
@williamtobin7282 I met Joe Pistone before so I was quick to recognize him.
That rat bastard. lol
Oh shit never knew that
Didn't he have a contract on his head? Why would he be in the movie? Lol
Wow! AP did a great job acting I actually felt sorry for him
Me too. So sad.
2:49 Al Pacino had some of that Tony Montana accent during this scene
He sure did Chico
Just so you know😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I always said that
They went to Florida and it came out
That's the real Donnie Brasco behind Lefty at 0:49.
Wow, didn't know that.
Former FBI agent Joseph Pistone aka Donnie Brasco
Loool, I knew he seemed familiar, but never recognized it was him))
I’m not sure it is he looks taller
I like the way the boat sits perfectly still while Sonny and Donnie are chatting. You can even sit your drink down on a railing....amazing... :-)
One's going east, and the other is going west. So what?
What do you want from me?@@johngilmore697
@@johngilmore697 Ever been on a boat?
@@johnpendarvis7885 Just a small one, with a couple of dogs and an old man who looked like the Shah of Iran. Why? Do they move about or something?
😂😂😂
This is not “Al Pacino” at a boat party😂 his name is Lefty
Show a little respect huh?
@@JoeCoer foggetaboutit
Lmao true
I used to live in a place where these low level gangster controlled things and I absolutely hated their guts. They were pathetic but you couldn’t do much because they would kick your head in worse and they were responsible for so much crap. I hated them so much and this film made me feel sorry for one of them. Great acting and writing!
Michael Madsen was a great Sonny Black. I wouldn't want to be within ten blocks of a guy like that.
I GOTTA ANSWER!
Reservoir Dogs, Donnie Brasco and Kill Bill Volume 2 are the absolute peaks of Madsen's acting career.
Frankly, I think most of the credit for Madsen's performance in Reservoir Dogs goes the the director. That one shockingly brutal scene he was in is sort of a Tarantino signature.@@joemckim1183

At 0:26 Lefty heads to the dock leaving Donnie heading to the stern. Eight seconds later Donnie's on the dock, stride for stride with Lefty. Damn, he's fast!
Blooper: Lefty runs off the boat BY HIMSELF to greet Traficanti.
Camera cuts to a different angle and Brasco is walking right next to Lefty.
5:38 the real Donnie Brasco, dude in the white fedora!
This is a perfect example of how life works.
You have to be intelligent in whatever you do. And intelligent people recognize intelligence and want those people around them to
I am afrraid it's the opposite. Inteligent people, espacialy the halfinteligent favored as managers, see other inteligent people as a threat. It is best not to show off your inteligence further then they expect from your role.
@@kanalnr1Spoken just like a less intelligent person 😂🤡🫵
Some of his best work in this role.
One of Michael Madsen favorite movies of his own
THE 70'S WERE THE BEST TIMES. COLUMBIAN GOLD, PANAMA RED, FUNK, DISCO, AND ROCK & ROLL WERE THE BEST IN THOSE TIMES ⏲️
Acapulco Gold, too.
@@raoulduke344 THAT WAS A GOOD ONE 👍 TOO
@FrankWoodJr Lebanese Red hash as well. In the 90s over here Silver Seal and Gold Seal hash were big.
But I remember the biggest strains from then being AK47 and White Widow (I never hear of th9se strains any more but in the 90s and 2000s they had sort of mythic status from people returning from Amsterdam who'd smoked ot over there).
YES I REMEMBER LEBANESE BLONDE AND RED HASH QUITE WELL, THE BEST. WE USED TO STICK A NEEDLE THRU A MATCH BOOK, PUT A LIL HASH ON IT. THEN LIGHT IT AND PUT A TALL GLASS CUP UP OVER IT AND INHALE THE SMOKE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE TALL GLASS CUP AND GET STONED TO THE BONE. I REMEMBER REAL SKUNK WEED FROM THE 80'S, THAT WAS SOME KILLER STUFF TOO
@FrankWoodJr we used to do something similar only we'd place it in between two red hot knives and suck the smoke up.
But my favourite with hash was to get a 2 litre bottle and cut the top off and fill with water. Then take a 750ml glass bottle and knock the bottom off it. Fill the 2ltr with water and put a socket with a gauze in the top bottle,burn the hash and pull.
I couldn't do a buckets today though - too sore on my lungs now.
What the hell made Lefty think that a big boss like Trafficante would just deal and talk with him Lefty was just a soldier which bosses don’t even talk too so he was mad for nothing
Bosses talk to all made men he wasn’t going to respect him as much as a captain but lefty was known through all the burrows 😆
Even the card would have been an insult.
@@caseymckenzie3951only in the movies not real life bosses do not deal with soldiers that’s why soldiers have captains that’s why he ask for Sonny black lefty really thought Sonny wasn’t going too find out
"Why do they call him Lefty?"
"Because he gets left out." 🤣
one of the best mafia films- maybe the most underrated.
Acting aside fun fact
All the top mob actors are beloved in most establishments and according to Bruno Kirby (RIP) who played Clemenza in GF2 they are given free food at delis and restaurants
The best Al Pacino films are Serpico Scarface Carlito's Way and Heat and The Irishman and Godfather 1 and Godfather 2
0:18 Fun fact : The "Left Hand" is an FBI boat that was used in another federal sting before the Donnie Brasco operation, and it ended up on the cover of Newsweek because of a leak 😂😂
Right after that boat party, Lefty and Pistone were eating a bit in Miami, and Lefty noticed that cover of Newsweek and confronted Pistone who eventually managed to BS his way out of it, so the bosses were never informed, but that was a close one. 0:47 and that's the real Joe Pistone just behind Al Pacino.
I think lefty knew beat that point but couldn’t prove it
Well, this is in the movie. There is a scene when he (Lefty) confronts him (Pistone).
Love Ya Al a true Master talent and Humanity ❤️
2:33 i have always loved the way the girl dances and picks her leg on cue. Very beautiful 💃
Conveniently moving that guy's hand off her butt in the process. Smooth.
Me too. Some smoke show extras in this scene.
Poor aul Lefty... Always on the outside looking in
What makes this great is that Joe was such a great undercover agent that they believed his backstory that he was indeed from Florida. Hence why he was given the responsibility in Florida.
Lefty worked all his life for this moment for someone else to come and still it
I love this movie so much. This and 'Carlito's Way' 👌
They have the heart of glass song and Lefty is showing his heart of glass
Also they all have hearts and are drinking from glasses, brilliant
Lefty worked all his life for this moment
Pacino and De Niro are the best also Brando was a legend too
How Donnie’s drink glass doesn’t fall of the rail of the boat amazes me.
You go to the bow I'm gonna stay at the stern you go to the bow and stay there immm so degusted with you yeah just so you know 😂😂😂😂😂
I've read the book several times. The movie told it like it wasn't. The real Lefty was a much sharper dresser.
Micheal Madson is brilliant in this.
this part was always so sad to me because in the beginning lefty is introduced as a tough guy, and then he is slowly broken down as a hack through the movie and this scene totally showed no one cared about him. even though in real life he was very loyal and did alot of killing.
When al Pacino tells Depp just so you know he sounded like his Tony Montana character.
“Where’s Sonny Black?”
Michael Madsen man, what an actor.
The problem with Lefty is that he kissed ass to the big Boss. The big boss could feel it and lost respect for him. You remind me of Mickey Mantell come on now.
He was just Made guy with aspirations. He should of been skeptical having the sitdown. Of course they would reach out to Sony Black. He would show up to surprise them.
I never noticed that Donnie was referred to as a “friend of ours” at the end of this scene. Wow, can you get “upped” just like that?
Played perfectly by Mr. Pacino !
Lefty reminds me of paulie from the sopranos loyal but never would make ot being past a low level
3:42 Sonny mentions Vegas and Donnie looks to camera. I swear that’s a reference to the carnage of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Love it
Whenever I REWATCH "1000" times, a movie, or just a clip/cut like this with Madsen, I'm lately "damn", this guy shadows even Johnny Depp, who is hands down "better"/bigger actor in general. But something about M.Madsen is like-there. His presence is felt always through the screen. Mickey Rourke, also.
00:57 that ain't no Caddy horn
when i remember after that cinema movie i buy that al pacino sun glasses by cazal
"FLAHHRRIDUH"
Lefty got passed over for promotion … like Colonel Slade did in Scent of a Woman.
WHOOOOAAHHHHHH
Poor Lefty, he went from being Peter Clemenza down to Fredo Corleone
Lefty was always never reaching in his pocket. He had a bad life. If he stayed true. Ref and them still be in the dirt. New king Sunny. But literally you can see the venom in Lefty. Seeing him introduce and respected . Maby seeing his son. But he was a disgrace. Sad movie. R.I.P to Ann Hesh for that role too. Al, Mike and Johnny.
I don't know why, but I always get this uneasy, depressing feeling from this movie.
What acting by Pacino, forget about it
Great performance from the chick with the bodacious cans
On a boat or Timbuctoo, I wear a suit. For a meeting. And you're late.
hearing that you belong to me now is like Your over here now.
As a former crook I would rather do my own thing the mafia was basically like paying to be a crook with so called protection that could probably end up more dangerous than being on your own
02:12, 05:47 Poor Lefty! His big break, gone forever! Back to the bottom of the can...
Donnie didn’t actually have to go to the bow and sit there
John Denver Johnny Wright song there
Lefty never had the chance to be a varsity player.
Wow. Damn.
You tryin to get me killed with that fu kn suit🤣
"Go to da BOWWW"
" i dont like boats" - carlito's way
What Christopher Moltisanti would’ve turned into
He would have shot someone in the foot. 😂
There is a deleted scene that helps a lot. Sonny Black took Donnie aside and threatened his life if he didn’t say what Lefty was up to. Donnie stood his ground and refused to rat on Lefty. Ironically, though he was pissing Sonny off, he convinced Sonny that he is a standup guy. We don’ t know how Sonny found out about all this, but it wasn’t from Donnie.
If you reach out to high rankings mob guys in Florida for a sit-down. They are probably going to reach out to the bosses back home. Lefty thought he could keep this secret for a year or so. Still give Sonny his cut and make a nice small fortune. It's because of this Sonny made Donnie in charge of the operation.
@@WithoutRemorse12 There is some stuff that doesn't compute. Donnie introduces Trafficante as "a friend of ours." Later, Sonny Black introduces Donnie as "a friend of ours." This, despite the fact that he was not made. Further, Sonny Red is on the phone with Trafficante, but Red hates Black and would not tip him off, unless it was to rub it in his face? Finally, Red was going to Whack Black and company ... did he have permission?! From whom?!
@@kevinobrien9626 Red is the acting boss. Since the last boss was locked up. I think it was clear Red was expecting something from the Florida venture. Red may of had disregard for Sonny Black. I don't think he wants their family embarrassing them by sending nobodies to meet leadership in Florida.
I think what happened is, knowing that Lefty has to contact Sonny Red every week for his vig, that’s how Sonny Red found out Lefty was in Florida. From there, Red could reach out to Trafficante, advising him that Lefty and Sonny Black were muscling in on his territory. Then Rusty was in the loop. It is really Lefty’s gambling problem and debt to Red that fucked him in the ass.
Sonny Red must have known Lefty was in Florida because he had to be in touch about the vig.
Fogettabowit. Sit at the bow. Pacino guided Donnie. He did not actually make him. He became misguided in the end. To forget about it means opinions are thrown to the side. It is actually, in a way, pragmatism. I could see Pacino's character in a place where he desires to leave the life. So Donnie actually set Pacino up. If he succeeded he would become a free man.
You wanna make a telephones? its got telephones.
Who would have thought crooks would rob each other😅
They were not going to sit down with mob nobodies. The only reason the meeting happened because they reached out to Sonny afterwards.
Nice little clip that showcases why this was such a disappointing movie. To get it made Pacino’s star power was needed. Knowing the story Pacino naturally wanted the role of Sonny Black. In the book Sonny is far more important than Lefty.
But the studio argued that Pacino just wasn’t believable as Sonny. Eventually Pacino agrees to take the role of Lefty….. in exchange for a greater plot focus on Lefty. A Lefty cast as the Mob’s version of Willy Loman.
The book makes clear what sympathy Agent Pistone has is for the fate of Sonny, not Lefty.
I remember from reading the book, that was indeed the case. I noticed when I saw the film how they showed Pistone bonding with Lefty, instead of Sonny. Still, it was a solid film. Pistone accomplished something that was amazing.
@@Clonetrooper1139 But the really impressive feat is getting to Sonny’s level. That’s basically the point of the entire enterprise.
And to emphasize how they want the audience to focus on the Brasco-Lefty relationship and not Sonny, Madsen’s Sonny is portrayed as a jerk not worth our time. In truth not only is Sonny 15-20 IQ points smarter than Lefty he’s also more interesting and given the context of the mob life, thoughtful and sensitive. Readers wonder if Sonny spent some time before going willingly to *his* doom caring for his pigeons.
Lefty is a much bigger role in this movie, why would he play Sonny just because he's a higher ranked member? Pacino has already played a Mafia Don in 3 movies so him playing a top tier mafia guy isn't in doubt, he proves he can also play one of the lower knockaround type of guys.
Because Lefty wasn't the guy that bonded with the FBI agent it was Sonny Black. Sonny Black is also the one that got whacked because of it, but I agree with you that Pacino was fantastic in a different role for him
@@donaldshotts4429 OH I didn't know the real story was that much different.
Each of these actors inhabits their roles. They are the real thing. No fugazis here.
In 0:46 and 5:39 the real Donnie Brasco, Joe Pistone is seen. He also has two spoken line in this video.

Infiltration? How it works?
Did Danny Elfman do the music on a mob movie? lol
Fkn love this movie
First girl doing hula was in Vegas and Sopranos shy
I'd forgotten how good that movie was. Still is. Even though we know more about Johnny Depth thanks to his messy divorce from Amber Heard, I still think he turned in a stellar performance in this movie. Sometimes it best not to know certain things about people you might idolize. Few of us is what anybody thinks. The difference is most of us don't have paid PR reps and fixers to cover it up.
