And they really went to the real Tommy's mother's house for a shovel and woke her up and she made them some food and they talked for a bit all the while Batts was still alive in the trunk of the car.
Fun fact about Henry Hill around the late 90s he started calling into the Howard Stern show kinda became a regular caller he did drink cause of his demons but he did live until 2012 not cause he was wacked but his heart gave out
This is an adaptation of the book Wiseguy, which is from Henry Hill's perspective. The book gives a little more background into events, but because it is Hill's POV, Henry is portrayed in a "good" light (relatively speaking). For another perspective, Henry's kids also wrote a book called "On the Run: A Mafia Childhood" which gives a much darker portrayal of Henry, esp during their WitPro years. Both books are worth the read.
Fun Fact: The restaurant that Paulie agrees to be the guys partner in and was burned down was actually an Italian restaurant in Brooklyn on Coney Island Avenue around Avenue Y or Z Called Russo's. You can see on the outside there is a "R" on the walls. My family used to go there around once a week and the Shrimp Oreganato was the best I ever had.
Ah I assume and old school "red sauce" place. There are a couple of those near where I live that probably at least once had mob ties. One of them (now defunct) I have heard from a reliable source that they were a meeting place for the Gambino family. I always meant to try them...they supposedly had amazing pork chops. But the closed down before I ever tried them.
It's interesting to revisit Martin Scorsese's keen ear for musical selections and the way he uses them for unforgettable scenes. The serene, poetic and innocuous Atlantis by Donovan juxtaposed with the explosive wrath and bloodthirsty violence of Billy Batts' assaination by fists, blades,shoe leather and gunshot wounds. Amazing.
Even more amazing, the music is not selected after the film is made. 'While writing the screenplay' in between the dialog lines. Marty pencils in the name & artist *song starts here. Then goes on to the next line of dialog. The person helping him said it would freak him out. Marty knows exactly what song & when it comes in, as he's writing it. & There are scenes timed to the music, both in rhythm &/or length, that most are unaware of.
PS: Can't wait for the Tarantino....although I'm not sure you're going to love the characters any more than you loved these characters! 🤣 Especially psyched for Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown and Death Proof.
Aw thank you! This is one of the first movies I’ve watched in a long time where I’ve felt that. I was like; Wow, I can’t root for them at all lol , but an accurate depiction of this lifestyle from Scorsese! Thanks for watching:)
I'm watching several Sopranos reactors and I keep waiting for them to get disgusted with Tony's personal and professional behavior as the series goes along, but except for a few they never seem to get the fact that he's a bad man and almost everyone around him is just enabling his behavior. At least this one gets the point of Goodfellas...
@@flarrfan oh man! I forgot about the sopranos. I would defiantly feel the heavy durning that show. I’ve never seen it, but this movie really drew out the emotions. I could see all the evil going on. Hit me hard. Thanks for watching!!
Tarantino just wrote the original drafts for True Romance and Natural Born Killers. These are among the very best films Tarantino has ever been involved with but they are not Tarantino films. True Romance was directed by Tony Scott Natural Born Killers was directed by Oliver Stone. Tarantino never would have, or could have made either of these films. Film is a director’s medium. The personal touches brought to the scripts by directors Tony Scott and Oliver Stone are well beyond the scope and sensibilities anything Tarantino would ever do. All that being said, YES!!! Absolutely watch True Romance and Natural Born Killers!!! These films are brilliant! Just don’t heap praise all over Tarantino for movies he didn’t direct. Tarantino never would have made either of these films as they exist in their finished forms.
Great reactio Cami like always. This movie is a masterpiece i really love Scorsese work and the cast is spot on, and some fun facts about this movie, some of the real criminals portrayed were actually toned down for the film, the infamous “funny how?” scene wasn’t in the script. This famous (if not the most quoted) scene comes at the beginning, when Pesci's Tommy DeVito jokingly-yet-uncomfortably accosts Henry Hill for calling him "funny." In addition to being the driving force behind the scene on screen, Pesci is also responsible for coming up with the premise. Both of Martin Scorsese’s parents have cameos in this movie. She plays Tommy's mother in the infamous dinner scene following Billy Batts’s murder, but the family connections hardly stop there. Tommy’s mother’s painting of two dogs sitting in front of an old man ("One's going east, and the other one is going west. So what?") was actually painted by co-writer Nicholas Pileggi’s mother. And Scorsese's father Charles also pops up as Henry’s prison compadre who puts way too many onions in the gravy. The large “f**k” count was mostly improvised, among the many things Goodfellas has become famous for over the 30 years is its liberal use of the word “f**k.” In all, the expletive and its many colorful derivatives are used 300 times. I dont know how this movie only went home with one Academy Award. You should react to "Casino" (1995) is another masterpiece from Scorsese, with De Niro and Pesci. Keep up the amazing work.
FUN FACT....the character that Joe Pesci was playing was not even close to how violent and evil the real Tommy DeVito in real life was way more sick and sinister. Ather fun fact the whole Karen culture originated from this movie the woman who plays Karen started the Trend of Karens.
Since so many others are requesting movies... The Mexican starring Brad Pitt, Out of Sight starring George Clooney and J-Lo, Mililer's Crossing a Coen Bros movie, Ocean's 11, Gangs of New York, Catch Me if You Can, Fresh (the 1994 one), Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels, Snatch, Trainspotting, Drugstore Cowboy, Brawl in Cell Block 99, Kingpin
Of the main guys Jimmy Burke was the only one who went to prison over point shaving at Boston College. He got 12 years for that and while in prison he was convicted of the murder of Richard Eaton and received a life sentence. Paul Vario was convicted of unrelated charges and received a 14 year sentence and died in prison.
@@barbados_ririfenty8553 yeah, they don't mention it in the movie, but he also apparently killed one of John Gotti's protege's, Ronald "Foxy" Jerothe. Tommy had dated the guy's sister and beat her up. The guy threatened to kill Tommy, Tommy got to him first. So, I don't think there were a lot of people in the Mob world that were too sad to see him go.
@13:52 They filmed this at a storefront on Queens Blvd, a few blocks away from my high school in Forest Hills, Queens. @18:00 This was at a restaurant called "Spartan" on Grand Ave, a few blocks away from my *junior* high school in Maspeth, Queens.
I knew a guy who was doing a federal prison bid at Ft Dix in New Jersey, and he was able to sneak away from the prison to meet his girlfriend at a local motel and spend time with her. After which, he would go back to the prison without anyone detecting anything at all. They didn't miss him, and the only reason why he got caught was because his girlfriend caught him cheating and ratted him out to the prison staff. You can get away with a lot of stuff in Federal prison.
What makes this movie even more interesting is knowing it was based on real people and events including the airport heist... of corse there were modifications made to some names etc.. but based on fact.
So these guys were part of the Lucchese family. When I moved into my current neighborhood, there was a suspicious looking store front labelled "Private Club" with its windows blocked so you couldn't see in. I later found out that was Carmine Persico's "social club." He became head of the Colombo family and recently died in prison. The mafia got priced out of my neighborhood and now there are no signs of them. My ex-wife once commented that gentrification had the side effect of driving out the mob. Across the Gowanus canal is I think Gambino family territory. I know people who had run ins with the mob in that neighborhood (and in Bensonhurst) and you still find social clubs. I think the mafia is still strong there. But overall they are much weaker than they were at the time of this movie.
Goodfellas is my favorite Gangster movie. Can you add these to your reaction list? If you didnt see them. Boyz N The Hood, Menace To Society, Juice, New Jack City. They get great views when people react to them.
It is kind of cool that while the viewer roots for the main characters and want them to prevail, you can still recognize that they do some terrible things and you wanted them to remain in prison. It shows that while you may be compassionate and empathize, you still maintain moral integrity and a healthy sense of what it right and wrong.
This is such an amazing movie! My all time favorite for sure! Hell, my friend got me a Goodfellas movie poster, autographed and framed! I really enjoyed this, you my friend, got yourself a new subscriber! 😁
Lorraine Bracco was a real babe back then. Some people believe that Paulie ordered the hit on Tommy. Tommy was bad for business and attracted too much attention.
Shine box man Batts went on to become Phil Leotardo on the Sopranos as well as the kid who played “Spider”, Christopher Moltisanti, Karen, as Dr Melfi , and Tony Stacks went to portray Paulie “Walnuts” Gualtieri. There’s a few more that were in this movie that went on to star in The Sopranos.
Paulie was a Captain in the Lucchese family (pronounced Loo'-Kazie). So he had his own crew. Tommy (like Henry and Jimmy) was only an "associate". They answered to Paulie. Tommy killed Billy Batts" who was a soldier (made man) in the Gambino family, who's boss was John Gotti. It was Gotti who had the boss of the Lucchese family, order Paulie to clip Tommy.
Great reaction, haha Im always interested in how we the people equate suffering = paying for crimes in a "moral" society 😂 This movie does blur the lines. Its one of the best
Great reaction, fantastic movie! Thanks for sharing! Another movie thats a bit scary because it's true is City of God. Definitely watch that if you get a chance...like this, it's a masterpiece!
I love this reqction, because you obviously had no idea - in the end, though, they got what they deserved....as for the movie, it's a masterpiece, and Scorsese is a brilliant story teller
Other of these scorcesi type DeNiro pesci movies to watch....casino, a bronx tail of course the godfather movies...tho not his....and his first, mean streets. Also a great comedy made about Henry, by Steve Martin called, my blue heaven or pennies from heaven! And a kinda out of the box 2 mob movies very good, Rob the Mob, and a movie about a mobster about to be killed, starring Al Pacino and Christopher Walken! Ironically, most of the characters in this, casino, a Bronx tale, all in the tv series, The Sopranos! Also ironic....scorcsesi says the greatest mob movie of all time is Once Upon a Time in America. By the hero of spaghetti westerns, Sergio Leone. In its uncut version its almost 5 hours long, and very gritty and dirty. Martin himself had it restored to how it was originally shot, multiple time jumps, out of order, and the entire length. And its ending is ambiguous!
This is glimpse into "that life". Every street guy involved in the life knows what is at stake. Its what theyve all signed up for. You break the rules, you die. Everyone knows that.
There's a channel on here where this other retired "gangster" comments on movies like this and he says the scene from prison is very heavily functionalized; yeah they got some perks but not like that, not lobster and their own cell and stuff.
Nah Franzese was wrong about that. Henry Hill was in Lewisburg with other mobsters and other guards and people there have said it was like that. Franzese served time in the 80’s where the glory of the mob was not as present
@@erosson27 yea, but to be fair he’s not completely wrong about it, because the book paints a better picture. For example Henry didn’t have his own cell. I think the reality is somewhere in the middle
Fun Fact. In real life Karen Hill had an affair with Paulie. Btw since you saw Samuel Jackson in this one why not continue with him in Pulp Fiction perhaps his most notable role.
That's a really fun fact; Paulie took sex in exchange for money while Henry was in jail so she could feed herself and her kids. I suppose you'd think it's another fun fact that Thomas DeSimone tried to rape her, which was among the reasons he was killed.
Cami is good woman. Most people kinda like the Mob behaviour. Forgetting that they are criminals and it costs regular people, even if they dont think so..The glorification of the Mob while regular folks pay taxes and price of goods go up.. Cami is a good woman.. Very pretty, good morals ...
8:31 I thought $7000 was a lot ( and it is) but if you adjust for inflation *$7,000 in 1963 would be around $67,000-$70,000 today.* How the heck do you run up tab that high?!! 💲🍽🥃🍾
It is based on a true story if you believe everything Henry Hill says , aspects of it is true, but i feel a lot of it is twisted to make him look good, notice how although he did help hide bodies he never once killed someone. Personally i think Henry Hill was mostly full of it and not nearly as important as he made himself out to be.
The UA-camr History Buffs has a great video about the historical accuracy of GOODFELLAS. Definitely worth a watch: ua-cam.com/video/vc4mBGIDEeU/v-deo.html Thanks for the reaction video!
You're going to have serious difficulty with Tarantino movies. Scorsese comes from a Catholic background and his movies have a strong moral center, despite the behavior of some of the characters. As you've seen, they don't "get away" with anything, not really. Now a director like Tarantino introduces pure nihilism in some of his movies. I noticed you didn't ask "why" in this reaction; you will ask "why" in Tarantino's movies. A lot of Ragu spaghetti sauce coming your way.😔
Uptight because she has a visceral reaction to palpably violent criminals doing violent and criminal things? Since when is it a bad thing to have a negative reaction to bad people?
Tommy's mom is Scorsese' real mother. The scene with her has no scripted lines.
it does have one scripted line, where she asks if they want to see her painting. But other than that you're right.
That’s so cool! I love to hear this!
She killed it
And Vinnie the cook in prison (‘3 small onions’) is Scorsese’s dad
And they really went to the real Tommy's mother's house for a shovel and woke her up and she made them some food and they talked for a bit all the while Batts was still alive in the trunk of the car.
Fun fact about Henry Hill around the late 90s he started calling into the Howard Stern show kinda became a regular caller he did drink cause of his demons but he did live until 2012 not cause he was wacked but his heart gave out
Nothing will ever top Sid Vicious singing Sinatra’s My Way after that masterpiece

timestamp on your setup pics is different,....
like years after,...
That is why I love Scorsese's Mafia movies, it all fun privilege but after a while the black side comes up.
Cami...whatever you do, don't watch Scarface.
You should watch Copland at some point
8:31 I thought $7000 was a lot ( and it is) but if you adjust for inflation *$7,000 in 1963 would be around $67,000-$70,000 today.* How the heck do you run up tab that high?!! 💲🍽🥃🍾
Did she know this was a mafia movie?
If you actually watch the movie… it’s so much more brutal
It is based on a true story if you believe everything Henry Hill says , aspects of it is true, but i feel a lot of it is twisted to make him look good, notice how although he did help hide bodies he never once killed someone. Personally i think Henry Hill was mostly full of it and not nearly as important as he made himself out to be.
If you enjoyed this you’ll enjoy Casino 95
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like you were going through a root canal watching this movie.
This isnt for you, or Tarantino.
Yea You might want to stick with Rainbows Unicorns and Butterfly type movies..😂😂😂
TRES Cool/Heavy
The UA-camr History Buffs has a great video about the historical accuracy of GOODFELLAS. Definitely worth a watch: ua-cam.com/video/vc4mBGIDEeU/v-deo.html
Thanks for the reaction video!
Ohhh I will watch this , thanks for sharing!!
This woman has a perfect nose.
Please If you like this movie there's another really, really good mafia movie.
It's called. A Bronx Tale
You're going to have serious difficulty with Tarantino movies. Scorsese comes from a Catholic background and his movies have a strong moral center, despite the behavior of some of the characters. As you've seen, they don't "get away" with anything, not really. Now a director like Tarantino introduces pure nihilism in some of his movies. I noticed you didn't ask "why" in this reaction; you will ask "why" in Tarantino's movies. A lot of Ragu spaghetti sauce coming your way.😔
I'm not sure you were the right person to react to this movie.
Why? Because she wasn’t rooting for the deplorable people in the movie? 🤦🏾♂️
Too many comment interrupting. Brief but there was no flow to enjoy the actual movie.
Become a patreon then
You can watch it uninterrupted
Yeah, this movie is not for the faint of heart. You seem way too soft for this movie ( no offense) 😂
What kinda man are you Hendry???!!!???
It's funny watchn' uptight people react to a story like this..
Uptight because she has a visceral reaction to palpably violent criminals doing violent and criminal things? Since when is it a bad thing to have a negative reaction to bad people?
I tried. She seems like a sweet lady, but my cat has bigger reactions and more to say when I put a movie on. 😴
If you start watching series on here. The sopranos is amazing🤌
