      Revenge for "Raging Bull" too...
      Because if I recall correctly, Joe Pesci beats him up in that One as well!
      All brilliant Martin Scorcese (Spelling?) Films!!!
      Question is...
      Who's gonna get back at Frank Vincent (Rest In Peace) for Nicky Santoro's brother Dominic???

    The "Go home & get your shine box" scene was shot at a place on 73rd Street and Grand Ave in Maspeth, Queens, about 6 miles from Robert's Lounge, where Billy Batts allegedly made the insulting comment. The bar where they some time afterwards beat up Billy Batts (Henry Hill's bar, The Suite) was actually a good distance away from both at 111-20 Queens Blvd, Forest Hills, Queens. That's about 3-1/2 miles from the place where they filmed the scene. So the insult and the near-fatal beating did *not* happen at the same place and time as depicted in the movie. They happened at different places on different days, according to Henry Hill.
    CORRECTION: the Suite was on 111-16 Queens Blvd
    It is now the home of a Japanese restaurant called Shogun Hibachi.

    Below, from Wikipedia...
    "According to the book Wiseguy, after William "Billy Batts" Bentvena was released from prison in 1970, a "welcome home" party was thrown for him at Robert's Lounge, which was owned by Burke.
    Hill stated that Bentvena saw DeSimone and jokingly asked him if he still shined shoes, which DeSimone perceived as an insult. DeSimone leaned over to Hill and Burke and said, "I'm gonna kill that f--k."[6]
    Two weeks later, on June 11, 1970, Bentvena was at The Suite near closing time when he was pistol-whipped by DeSimone. Hill said that before DeSimone started to beat Bentvena, DeSimone yelled, "Shine these f-ing shoes!"[6]..."

      Thank you for that!! I am just editing a video that I took in Maspeth at the old Spartan Restaurant, but I couldn't pinpoint the original location on Queens Blvd. However, based on the location of Krugman's "For men only" on Queens Blvd, I included an image in the video where I guessed what I thought was the original Suite Lounge. If your information is correct then I guessed right, lol, 111-20 Queens Blvd. Thanks for that, I had a feeling that it was the castle looking building.

      The Asian restaurant was the location of Henry Hill’s original ‘Suite’ lounge. They had the second of two fights-one by JFK and the other here. The restaurant where the scene was filmed was just a set for the movie. The original lounge, here, was demolished years ago. And they didn’t drive him straight to Connecticut. They went down the Van Wyck, back towards Howard Beach, when he started kicking in the trunk. 😊🔪🩸

    • @Sou1defiler
      @Sou1defiler Рік тому +1

      It depends on what angle you are looking at. if you're looking at it in the movie Jimmy Conway was seen as the "boss" and Tommy was expendable and was blamed for killing Batts.. If you're looking for what actually happened accounts vary (as they always do with the Mafia) but it's generally accepted that the real Tommy Desimeone was a hothead who was prone to violence which contrary to what people think, the mafia does not really approve of as they are not thought to be trustworthy to be good earners and more likely to bring the attention of the law. Tommy's brother was also suspected of being a rat and Tommy had to always fight the feeling he was also a rat. As for Jimmy Burke in real life, was a very good earner and was seen as while being a hardcore gangster who was in no way whatsoever shy of killing, he knew how to control his temper and convert it into money making.. But what the truth and the movie do show is that made man is deemed untouchable by lower ranks of the mafia and even more so by non Italian associates like Jimmy Burke regardless of how much they earn. So it is somewhat surprising that DeSimeone was murdered and Jimmy was not, possibly because the Gambinos were making too much money from Burke and saw more value in keeping him alive than deSimeone who to be honest, no one would particularly miss. You should also remember that Goodfellas is based on an account by Henry Hill, and he was never one to shy away from either embellishing his accounts or changing them entirely when it suited him.

      His character Jimmy Burke was incredibly dangerous and rich from the Lufthansa heist. The Gambino's blamed Desimone for the Billy Bats hit. John Gotti was the one that pressed the button. He couldnt get to Burke who was making too much money for the Luchasse family. Bats was there to collect as he was given the Desimone crew and the Burke numbers rackets were supposed to be his. They didn't need to kill bats, just pay him his tribute like the old timers did.

      I know right that doesn’t sound right I thought everything happened in the social club that Henry owns all there but he is telling us that the fight started some place else and then they went to that place. So when Tommy tell them to keep him there is not true then and on top of that after they beat the life out of him and put him in the trunk of the car they didn’t finish killing him for two more weeks they kept him in the trunk all of that time driving around are you serious I think something is not right here maybe is because we can’t hear him cuz he is so close to the camera maybe if you move a little more farther away then it will be perfect 🤩 you know lol 😂 well anyway some thing is been explained wrong or maybe I’m wrong well I’ll just keep investigating that situation. And that reminds me what they did with the body after they dug it out were did they put it or Re-buried the the body and after that did the feds get the body after Henry got busted well AnyWho it’s been fun 🤩
