Every Goodfellas Reference In The Sopranos
Ойын-сауық
This video contains all references to “Goodfellas” in “The Sopranos” that I could find, both from characters and directors. David Chase, the creator of The Sopranos, has called Goodfellas his Qur’an, noting that it had a major impact on the show.
Despite that, this video has far fewer references than a recent video of mine pointing out all The Godfather references in The Sopranos. This isn’t surprising, however, as The Godfather gives a more romanticized view of mafia life than Goodfellas, and so it makes sense that characters would reference it more. (The Godfather also had a significant influence on actual mobsters).
I’m sure I missed some references, so do let me know if that’s the case.
The clips are in chronological order, and are taken from the following 6 episodes:
*Season 1*: The Sopranos; The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti.
*Season 2*: Big Girls Don’t Cry.
*Season 3*: Fortunate Son.
*Season 4*: Mergers and Acquisitions.
*Season 5*: Long Term Parking.

I love how Richard talks about Goodfellas as if he isn't staring Karen Hill directly in the face.

I didn't understand at first how the last scene has a Goodfellas reference until Christopher said "Oh my God, what are we going to do"! as they are both crying. The similar scene from Goodfellas is when Henry finds out Karen flushed the cocaine down the toilet and they are both crying "What are we going to do!?". Good connection!

You forgot a couple, the scene where Chris and Georgie are digging up Emil Kolar by the shore and Georgie starts puking is based on a very similar scene in Goodfellas where Henry Hill is puking while exhuming a dead body, and the scene where Phil and Bill Leotardo shoot Angelo in his trunk is inspired from the Goodfellas scene where Frank’ Vincent’s character Billy Batts gets shot in his trunk.

It's weird if you think about the fact that Goodfellas exists in this universe yet the majority of the actors who starred in that movie also starred in Sopranos..for example Tony Sirico (Paulie) has a very minor role at the start of the movie, the actor for Dr. Melfi plays Henry Hill's wife, and her mother who is in the movie is also Carmella's mother in Sopranos! The actor for Christopher also makes an appearance for a very short moment and Carmine's actor also makes a minor appearance too but as a background character.

Maybe the biggest reference of all is that the murder of Fat Dom is clearly an homage to the murder of Billy Bats.
