It’s usually the other way around, the actor has to play a more intimidating character. But not many actors with his background. In the Sopranos, he played a deliberate caricature. The silver sideburns, track suits, gold chain, but he had the same neuroses as everyone else. And he did it well. I give him credit for learning a new craft.
Quite a few months late but I think it might be a coping mechanism of sorts. Since he doesn't know what happened he probably wants to believe he's alive somehow and didn't kill him over something as stupid as flirting with the girl.
Not really. Paulie killed people, even an old lady who caught him trying to steal money from under her bed. But yes, this man is not to be messed with.
Lol breakup my ass he ditched his wife and kids for a young piece of ass that ran out on him at the first sign of trouble. Happens to the best of us though. Cesar and cleopatra. Men will do anything for a hot piece of ass
@@lennon1225 it's so funny because it's relatable isnt it, I know people who've always been old and now I'm not young anymore, they dont look much different it's weird lol. Sopranos had some of the best dialogue in any series ever, all the mafia stuff and the violence was second to characters and the sitting down and chatting stuff

Well that was about 300x more intense than I thought it would be...... i would probably listen to an hour long interview with Tony Sirico when he was this age.
@@tommycholewinski786 yeah, i saw a get together of the sopranos cast these days and holy shit, i dont even know what he was talking about (mainly because he lost a lot of teeth), all while Junior and Hesh demonstrated superb articulation and memory. Btw if i just listened to junior i would just assume it was recordeerd long ago. Anyway, Sirico simply went as Paulie, presumably quoting some of his previous lines (i can only guess). This made me believe he is Paulie, and david chase just chaos flow until a ep is done. But this interview suggests hes actually not like Pauli, im confused
Makes sense why he was able to play Paulie to perfection. His fear of being alone culminated in a mobster that is surrounded by his friends all day but in reality has no one in his life (besides his aunt/mother). The way Paulie compensates that, makes his character behave exactly like someone does compensate. Its strange that people thought Sirico was dumb because Paulie was. Imo it was always very obvious that for being such a stellar actor without much experience you need to be able to reflect yourself and others on a deep level.
He had been in many films and TV shows before the Sopranos. Not sure how big all the parts were, but I'd say he was far from not having much experience.
This man is a treasure. The fact he actually has the acting skills to make Paulie so believable as just a dumb and troubled mobster when in real life he seems very intelligent and a deep thinker is a testament to his ability Wish he were in more than just mob stuff
@Maxolydian He has been in loads of Woody Allen films. Not that hard to look up. I'm disappointed in you. I don't want to go on here, so I'll make this short and sweet. You're weak. You've become an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else.

Michael Giovanni that’s awesome man, Paulie Walnuts is the best!! Best one liners on the show, and the jokes too, haha freakin hysterical, “Hey Sil, u remember your first blo job? Sil: yea of course, Paulie: How long did it take for the guy to cum” hahah T did ya hear what I said, then he repeats the joke, LMFAO
“if someone offered you a million dollars to kill a stranger right now, would you do it?” “no, no i wouldn’t” “why?” “i don’t need the money” Cold line
I think that was the stupidest question among a few this interviewer dished out. Why would he kill someone at that time? He was already an actor and years away from his previous criminal life.
He sounds very different from Paulie. Paulie had this very high-pitched voice, while Tony had a pretty deep voice in comparison. His laugh is real different too, it sounds much more articulate and sinister than Paulie’s. A real actor.
@@KingDecay lol lol I wonder if they thought about that when writing the story, especially since Chris and Paulie have a close relationship in the show
If yas noticed. His biggest fear is being alone. And in the show thats what they kind of made him and he was always bugging tony to hang out really. Pretty cool
The fact that he says being alone is what he is most afraid of puts Paulie’s character into better perspective. The remember whens. When he brings up to Tony that he never comes over anymore. Paulie was alone in the series and only had his Ma who was in Green Grove. Sure he had the girlfriend when Chrissy was shot, but that’s not the same as a family and his home was always empty.
Props to Tony for pouring out his heart in this interview. One of the most inspiring things to see as a man and a human being in general. Most guys would never be this raw and expose their soul like this for everyone to see.
🎯🎯🎯💯🙏 Love to Tony Sirico and his family & friends... he always gave me joy whenever he appeared in a movie or show, whether it be a tiny role like Goodfellas or Bullets Over Broadway, or a major one as in The Sopranos.
also heard he was a columbo associate, or maybe made man too. there was an article on latimes when he was interviewed and told the camerman to not shoot any pics at the bar he was posted up at.
Because I play metal gear solid, specifically recalling the came "Snake Eater" I just thought of the character call, The Fear whose resemblance is Tony Sirico aka Paulie. He was jumping out of trees attacking. ua-cam.com/video/ASqRGmxlBds/v-deo.html
"What are you frightened by?" "Being alone." Wow, that has special resonance when you think about how much of Sirico's real life they ended up incorporating into his character on the Sopranos...
@ JayoJay there is no glamorous in that life. You briefly become rich and then it all fades away as time goes on. What will you have to show for it in the end? serving 50 years in prison while your "best friends" of 30 years talk shit behind your back. Not really appealing to me
You clearly have an attraction towards the mob. Only a handful haven't done serious time. It didn't really work out for because he's been in several prisons and his 4 year gun charge was the reason why he left in the first place
His answer was "being alone". Wow. In his very last scene ever in Sopranos, hes sitting outside of Satrialles Pork store, which used to be crowded with a bunch of wise guys, all of whom are dead now. Hes sitting there all alone. Sun bathing.
I gotta watch TV to figure out the world. Your average men's shit house is a fucking sewer. You look at lady's johns you can eat maple walnut ice cream from the toilets. Eh! There's exceptions. But the men piss all over the fucking floor, urinals jammed with cigarettes and moth ball cakes. Even if you keep your shoes tied, and your laces aren't dragging through urine.
I just finished watching Sopranos with my mom and we ended the show around the time it was the nine year anniversary of James Gandolfini passing away. Now suddenly we lose Tony (Paulie) too. That's a hard one for sure. RIP legend.
@@sexmodtf2freepunjabinoviru162 So I need to have sex with women before I can be declared straight? You know how stupid that sounds. Maybe you should go look at the mental clowns on your side that have never had sex with whatever bullshit they made up this week that doesn't exist.
Yes he does bigtime, could be due to the fact that he doesn't have to shout and also because the mic is right there to where he can just talk in a low calm voice. But if Christopher pisses him off, he's gonna be the Paulie we all know real quick.
Great to see this interview. Shows how the real man really was struggling and hurting on the Inside. This interview really shows his "gangster" mannerisms. True legend
David Edward - just Silvio - he didn't quite fit to me, then I heard the guy playing him wasn't an actor - it didn't surprise me. Silvios whole demeanour- even the way he stood, anyway, just for me, it didn't work and looked overdone
I partly agree with you about Sil, or rather Steven, but because The Sopranos is in large part a comedy this character does work, and no one else could've played him. But sure, Sil is more of a caricature than the guys who were played by experienced actors.
For a whole year after my mother was told she had stage 4 cancer I was at her house at 7am and left at 7pm. During her last month when she started getting really bad I spent every night there as I couldn't trust my stepfather to be there for her. I think it was the very best gift I could have gave her as she was very afraid to die and her biggest fear was to die alone...she was so afraid of that. I made sure she didn't and even set up a cot in her room right beside her and kicked my POS stepfather to the couch in the rec-room as I didn't trust him around my mother alone. 2 months after my mother passed he introduced his "girlfriend"....after he was already seeing her a year before my mother was diagnosed, and what's worse is we could all see that my mother was sick before I forced her to get checked out by the doctors. Tony, despite his past and the things he'd done, he was a very good son for being there for his father. Going through that is a life changing event and it will either make our break a person. RIP Tony.
"What's your greatest fear?" "Being alone." Amazing, wonder if that factored at all into why David Chase wrote Paulie as a loner (at least domestically).
“You're not gonna believe this. He killed sixteen Czechoslovakians. The guy was an interior decorator.”

It’s usually the other way around, the actor has to play a more intimidating character. But not many actors with his background.
In the Sopranos, he played a deliberate caricature. The silver sideburns, track suits, gold chain, but he had the same neuroses as everyone else. And he did it well. I give him credit for learning a new craft.

Tony Sirico the man was even more gangster than the guy he played on TV.
This is from the movie The Big Bang (1989)
i dunno about that. paulie did choke some old lady to death to steal her cash so he could give it to Tone to get back in his good graces
@@glassjawdp yea but that's just scummy shit, not gangster
@@bigbubba7753 No matter how much you'd like to romanticize it, organized crime is scummy shit.
@@RichieMcCormick1888 it's a documentary, he's not acting
Holy shit this hit close to home. The way Tony talks about his biggest fear was being alone, so relatable.
RIP legend
Tony Sirico's deep, he listens to Sun Tah-zoo, the chinese machiavelli....
Tun -zu you fuckin ass kiss!
@@SahMael722 Hahah indeed!
Is Tun-tszu!
Lol great line but he said "machabelli" which really sold it
@@reuvenlloyd6769 right he pronounces the CH instead of pronouncing it with a "K" sound
Interviewer: Did you kill?
Paulie: Did I what? He he he.
😂😂
Whaddaya say we hit him with a brick?
Whatever happened there...
"Did I WAT!?"
Interviewer: is it still itching?
"I'm stuck with the name 'Junior'"
"You don't like it?"
"I'm 45 years old. Would you like it?"
@4:45
It's ironic how he actually auditioned for the role of Junior Soprano tho
HIM TALKING ABOUT HIS DAD, MAKES ME REALIZE WHAT I HAD WHEN MY FATHER WAS ALIVE. HOW I WISH I COULD REEL BACK THE YEARS
You never been to Paris, Paulie”, oh yeah I went over to get a blo job from ya mudda, she was workin the bon bon stand at the Eiffel Tower!!! Lmfao
Did ya hear that Ton'?
@@JJ_SDWR I told him yeah I went over to get a blo job from ya mudda, she was workin the bon bon stand at the Eiffel Tower
What this thing needs is a Brogaine adjustment !
"The best day of my life is the day that I fell out of love with her." WOW...
"that girl" he said. Don't misquote the man.
I know that feeling
@@pinehawk9600 as do i.
@@ShredCo oh, what a fucking difference.
@@kieran1883 I was kind of kidding but now that you mention it, one should quote accurately.
"You ever had the thought that nothing good was ever going to happen to you?"
"Yeah, and nothing ever did. So what?"
My favorite quote
Sadly the legend just passed away. Rip Tony Sirico, a real gentleman.
A gentleman??? Hahah, he was a fucking scumbag.
"Ya look at ladies' johns, you can eat maple walnut ice cream off the toilet seats"
*_EH, THERE'S EXCEPTIONS._*
Men's rooms? Pissolovahda fuckin' floarz!
He jumped of da tree and attacked me with a chainsaw
I love how he steals the mawn lower
Because I play metal gear solid, specifically recalling the came "Snake Eater" I just thought of the character call, The Fear whose resemblance is Tony Sirico aka Paulie. He was jumping out of trees attacking.

That episode was funny
"I gotta right to defend myself T!"
In my book they give ya points for staying outta the can !!
“Don’t need the money?” What a really perfect gangster answer.
"did i what" yea he did that shit
😂😂😂
"Words to the wise, remember Pearl Harbor!!!"
"There better not be any rubles in there Comrade"
Rollingrockink III or the other thirty people living here . Eh eh he he he
Minus the comrade and you got yourself a great quote.
"What are you frightened by?"
"Being alone."
Wow, that has special resonance when you think about how much of Sirico's real life they ended up incorporating into his character on the Sopranos...
@ JayoJay there is no glamorous in that life. You briefly become rich and then it all fades away as time goes on. What will you have to show for it in the end? serving 50 years in prison while your "best friends" of 30 years talk shit behind your back. Not really appealing to me
whats that got to do with anything?
You clearly have an attraction towards the mob. Only a handful haven't done serious time. It didn't really work out for because he's been in several prisons and his 4 year gun charge was the reason why he left in the first place
very good interesting observation sir, real talk
His answer was "being alone". Wow. In his very last scene ever in Sopranos, hes sitting outside of Satrialles Pork store, which used to be crowded with a bunch of wise guys, all of whom are dead now. Hes sitting there all alone. Sun bathing.
You ever go to tie your shoes and realize your shoe laces are wet?
Why? Why would they be wet?
Lmao
@@jayh1096 I got no fuckin' idea
He's asking me, I'm tellin him.
I gotta watch TV to figure out the world. Your average men's shit house is a fucking sewer. You look at lady's johns you can eat maple walnut ice cream from the toilets. Eh! There's exceptions. But the men piss all over the fucking floor, urinals jammed with cigarettes and moth ball cakes. Even if you keep your shoes tied, and your laces aren't dragging through urine.
I just finished watching Sopranos with my mom and we ended the show around the time it was the nine year anniversary of James Gandolfini passing away. Now suddenly we lose Tony (Paulie) too. That's a hard one for sure. RIP legend.
Tony Sirico: "I'm stuck with the name Junior, I'm 45 years old, would you like it?"
Uncle Junior: He never had the makings of a Junior.
Small hands that was his problem ✋
But I'm guessing that he DID have the makings of a varsity athlete. 😛
Go shit in your hat!
Skyrim account calls himself super straight. Get some bitches before you get that bold homie
@@sexmodtf2freepunjabinoviru162 So I need to have sex with women before I can be declared straight? You know how stupid that sounds. Maybe you should go look at the mental clowns on your side that have never had sex with whatever bullshit they made up this week that doesn't exist.
he sounds so different when he was young
Adrian Veidt No! no! no! He does not! No we did not! But he doesn't he sounds the same on The Sopranos!
Adrian Veidt no he doesn’t dumb ass. Sounds just like he does on the show
Yes he does bigtime, could be due to the fact that he doesn't have to shout and also because the mic is right there to where he can just talk in a low calm voice. But if Christopher pisses him off, he's gonna be the Paulie we all know real quick.
@@markgray8065 Calm down, crazy
Blood Time Maximus Full Throttle Productions no he sounds and talks way different
Tony Sirico lived the life ..a hard life but turned it all around in an amazing way . Great guy and amazing actor .
Can the cameraman zoom out. Holy shit dude

Alex Graves The sailor could have been charged as murder
Alex Graves of course, but he couldn't admit it as there is no statute of limitations on murder...
He's killed ppl forsure
This guy killed 16 Czechoslovakians!
Man the deaths of sopranos actors really hits hard. Like losing a family member. RIP Mr. Sirico.
"Would you kill someone for a million dollars?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"I don't need the money."
what happen when he need ?
That’s a fucking gangster answer
he took a minute before he answered 😂
also money is not everything, but being poor many find that hard to believe.
@@danielueblacker9118 Aye
“I don’t need the money” lol. Best answer ever
Mr Sirico is my neighbor Know him for many years and believe u me he's a real gentleman
Tell him i said hi. Thanks.
Give my best to junior
Hey junior John Smith and Barra kofo from youtube say hi! 🤦🏻♂️ Lol like anybody would say that to anyone!! 😂 😂 😂 💀
Tell him I said he’s gonna build Beansie a ramp
All due respect....hes the man
For a minute there, I thought he was auditioning for a role. That’s also a testament how believable his acting is.
Great to see this interview. Shows how the real man really was struggling and hurting on the Inside. This interview really shows his "gangster" mannerisms. True legend
David Chase direction to Paulie...."just be you"....
Spoof willy woof woof direction to Mike Demmett 🖕
... and action!!
You're an idiot. The man, is this video, is completely different from his character in The Sopranos. Get an education.
CooManTunes If you can't handle a joke , then maybe you should go back to school
mike demmett just be you but a bit less
He did survive by the skin of his balls when the Columbos went at it.
A line of cuzzerellis a mile long
He actually was a Colombo associate believe it or not. Maybe they incorporated that when they were writing his character.
@Larry Barry go be a know it all somewhere else fuckin loser
@Larry Barry really?
@Larry Barry i guarantee you've never even attempted to look any of this up, rather talk out of your ass.
The sadness in his eyes while he was talking about his father was very touching
"That wasn't Hell...that was purgatory my friend"
Is there a better choice to play Paulie? Every cast member of Sopranos is perfect.
David Edward - just Silvio - he didn't quite fit to me, then I heard the guy playing him wasn't an actor - it didn't surprise me. Silvios whole demeanour- even the way he stood, anyway, just for me, it didn't work and looked overdone
I partly agree with you about Sil, or rather Steven, but because The Sopranos is in large part a comedy this character does work, and no one else could've played him. But sure, Sil is more of a caricature than the guys who were played by experienced actors.
a large part a comedy???? no..but there were a lot of funny parts no doubt.
You heard the guy playing Silvio wasn't an actor? No shit?
@@rodchamp7510 i respect your opinion....but you're wrong
It's just 7 minutes of him talking, but you surely feel the deep and powerfull moments from this vid... great stuff
For a whole year after my mother was told she had stage 4 cancer I was at her house at 7am and left at 7pm. During her last month when she started getting really bad I spent every night there as I couldn't trust my stepfather to be there for her. I think it was the very best gift I could have gave her as she was very afraid to die and her biggest fear was to die alone...she was so afraid of that. I made sure she didn't and even set up a cot in her room right beside her and kicked my POS stepfather to the couch in the rec-room as I didn't trust him around my mother alone. 2 months after my mother passed he introduced his "girlfriend"....after he was already seeing her a year before my mother was diagnosed, and what's worse is we could all see that my mother was sick before I forced her to get checked out by the doctors. Tony, despite his past and the things he'd done, he was a very good son for being there for his father. Going through that is a life changing event and it will either make our break a person. RIP Tony.
You were a great son. Your mother must have been happy that you were with her till the end of her life.
Every line of dialogue Paulie ever had is probably in these comments
OOOOOOOOH!
They ate pootsie before we gave them the gift of our cuisine.
Hey Shaggy! You'll be picking up your teeth in another second!

Spare me with the rape of the culture.
"What's your greatest fear?" "Being alone." Amazing, wonder if that factored at all into why David Chase wrote Paulie as a loner (at least domestically).
He was also alone in the final season with him being the only one outside the butchers
“Love is scary coz it’s so beautiful”
You hear what said Tone? I said love is scary coz it’s so beautiful.
RIP Paul
