How to Negotiate and WIN | John Gotti | Sit Down with Michael Franzese

In my former life, I sat down with John Gotti in a negotiation and won. Everything I learned about negotiations, I learned during sit downs and this particular scene in the movie Gotti really showed how a real Cosa Nostra sit down is done. How would you do in a high stakes mafia negotiation?
Was Gotti the most authentic Mob Movie ever made??

You’re right about one thing, Gotti with Armand Assante is one of the best mob movies ever made.

@@Ruggid111 I liked the movie too, i would say its up there with Goodfellas and a little above Casino. (I liked the first half of Casino, however my biggest problem with it is the second part, after he fires the kid whose uncle is a high ranking sheriff or something, the movies phasing takes a steep dive and DeNiro´s character goes from hero to zero in no time at all. Here i liked Goodfellas better as the decline where more gradual)
The scene where Dellacroce walks into the bar and tells Gotti just how close he came to getting killed was my favorite in the whole film. The look on Assante's face...it was like you could see that realization pass over him when he finally realized that he WASN'T untouchable.

Especially when Dellacroce tells him that if Don Carlo had given the order for Gotti to be whacked, he would’ve carried out his bosses orders. Even as hard as he thought for him, if the boss had said, no, he still would have followed procedure. It just shows how even your best friends are willing to turn on you at a moments notice. Really trying to drive in the point. If only he had listened.

I don't get what yall see. It was okay! The air doesn't look like Gotti and the guy that plays Sammy doesn't look like Sammy at all! At least Assante behaved like Gotti to a T. I wish they had showed more of the way they earned money. Show us the backhand deals etc.
I loved the quote where Neil told Gotti got a pass and Neil says "But if Don Carlo had said, you gotta go. I would have come here today with these two zips...and you would go..." and the acting was just so real and truly amazing. Truly well done. I think it shows having influence is a wonderful negotiation tactic. Neil showed respect to the Boss and because he shows respect and put his own reputation on the line, he got Gotti the pass. Which is a huge victory turn around for a uphill battle.

I remember watching this Gotti movie on KZread and absolutely loving it. I'm English, I don't know the Mafia beyond the movies, I don't know New Yorks streets, but I could just tell there was something authentic about this movie, I couldn't put my finger on why but I could just tell I was watching something that was trying to be real and I appreciated that approach more than if they focused on entertainment. I really appreciate your reviews on it Michael because I feel like it validated why I liked the movie when I couldn't really be sure for myself

Fantastic video Mr. Franzese! Negotiating has never been my forte, but after listening and really sponging up your advice on life really does come in handy. Especially when you stated in your simulation to check your ego and loading up both barrels. Looking forward to your deep discussions in the the future. Thank you for all that you do Mr. Franzese, and God bless.
If "Gotti" was the only movie Armand Assante ever made he would have accomplished his career as an actor, in spades. He could have given lessons to John Gotti on how to BE John Gotti! Thank you for all the work you put into these videos. It is much appreciated!

Assante was great as Napoleon too. He's a great actor.
Ah many many thanks Mr Franzese. I think it was one of your videos a few months back where I learned a gem from you. You said so to speak in a situation where there may be a group negotiating, brain storming etc. Let everyone have their say. Really listen.. Always be the last one to say anything, it depends, it may be best not to speak at all. To keep one's counsel. Not to react. Never ever say a bad word against anyone even if you feel bad about them. That really stood out to me. I will never forget it. Again thank you. I have learned so much in these last few months since I've been here. Have a great week ahead. God's blessings and favour to you and your family ❤️
I could listen to you explain La Cosa Nostra life all day..Thank you Mr. Franzese
Michael, this is my favorite movie as well. I can rewatch it anytime. Armand Assante, Anthony Quinn, and all the supporting cast were excellent. It was all done so perfectly, the time period in NYC, the music. And it didn't glamorize as much as it showed the treachery and in the end , no winners. 24 years later and this movie still holds up today. Great Video!
I have watched the HBO version of Gotti over 100 times. It never gets old. It was brilliant and from everything I have heard it's very accurate.

I totally agree with you Michael especially the scene with Delicroce, approaching Gotti, after the Sit down with Don Carlo deciding on John's Life, the scene gave me the Chills knowing that it Really Happened and it shows the World that Some Killer's do have a Heart and a Conscious, lol because I'm from the Mean Streets of Washington DC but I've met a Few Conscious ones in my Life Time and Anthony Quinn's acting is like no other

I’ve been a long time watcher… this is my first time commenting. I also love the gotti movie with armand as John Gotti… a true hidden gem. But one movie that nobody talks about and is a true Mafia classic is “The Valachi Papers” starring Charles Bronson. I would love if you did a mob movie monday on it. God bless.

Really enjoy your videos, thanks for taking the time to keep them going
GREAT Video Michael! Please do more like it 🍿
Thank you Michael, enjoying your videos.
So happy this channel is getting big….many people getting wisdom
Another great sit-down Michael. I've always tried in a negotiation situation listen intently to the other party and showed them I was interested in what they had to say. I knew what I wanted on my side, I tried to solicit what their bottom line was or what they would settle for. You can never go off halfcocked. No pun intended. Sometimes there only two languages known, english and profane.
Great content as usual. Thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to Friday's session....yaaayyyyy. On another note, Mr. Franzese, did you hear about Mike Tyson's recent encounter with a gunman in a comedy club? Mike Tyson handled the situation like a champ. He seemed fearless based on what I read. Unbelievable.
Mr. Franzese thank you for sharing! I enjoy it.
These sit downs could have been life or death that must sharpen up you`re awareness. It priceless.
The scene also contrast to the scene when Gotti is boss and Sammy asks to whack Louie DiBono and Mickey DiBatt. Don Carlo listened to everybody and thought the issue through, whereas Gotti just said «clip em both if it makes you feel good!» Shows the difference in leadership between the old-timers and the young turks.
Crazy how much of the montage behind Michael is the Soprano's rather than classic mob movies. Really says how much weight and reality that series has.
Great work Michael! Keep it up! Look at the channel is growing!
Excellent video Michael
Great show thanks 🙏 Mike
Good idea with the simulated sit-down. Keep the channel hot, keep the ideas coming.
Big fan Michael from Oahu in Hawaii I send my blessings and support thanks for all the hard work you guys do to make these vids and for always staying positive and preaching gods name you made me wanna get even more into Christ blessings from Hawaii man stay safe
Great video and love the simulation
Marc Lawrence who played Carlo Gambino was personal friends with Charlie Luciano. Whenever Lawrence visited Italy he would go see Lucky who just wanted to hear his New York accent and reminisce of his life there before he was imprisoned then deported. Lawrence was the perfect casting to play Gambino IMHO. And Dominic “Uncle Junior” Chianese looks like Joe “Piney” Armone, Gambino’s consigliere if only he had worn the Coke bottle glasses Armone had to wear!
Hey Michael! Awesome video. I hope all is well. God Bless from The Bronx 👊🙏🇺🇸
This is my favorite channel, stay safe Michael and god bless.
Thanks for sharing, this movie was one of the 1st I watched on the mob. The acting was immense and as I guy from Manchester UK who knows nothing about the mob felt real and some of the scenes scared me. The movie also took me to NYC and Mulberry Street, and also to Sparks Steak House, just to be on those streets put a chill down my back. I’ve also read a book called La Costa Nostra, this a great read about the origins of the mafia in Italy, and there men of honour.
Hello from Manchester England Michael hope your doing well keep up the great content god bless
Thnx Mr. Franzese , yes HBO’s GOTTI is a great movie! My big brother showed this movie to me and we both LOVE IT! Thnx for your work on your channel because it is 👌🏽!! Best of luck to you and your fam , sir!
Thank you for the lessons and inspiration. Blessings, Kate & kids Jason, Sean, Candice, Troy
Love your Videos very Educational can't thank you enough
One line i love is when Neil opened his argument by saying "You know me Don Carlo, I am a street guy, i can't talk." sets up: 1. Castelano is not a street guy and is all fancy talk. 2. I ain't doing fancy talk, i am speaking from the heart.
"why because he's Jackie Aprile's kid? you're not gonna let this go. you can't do that. he took a shot at me, he tried to kill Furio, we're MADE"
Yes, this movie I’ve seen so many times back in the 90’s, I could act it all out still today. I literally wore out my DVD copy I dubbed when it came out. Epic movie!

I watched this movie because you like it… You are RIGHT! One of the most underrated Movies of its time. This is one of my favorites.
Good job Mike ..my favourite movie as well "Gotti" was & Is #1 in my book of Mafia movies... and congratulations on almost 800k subscribers
Michael: I always prided myself as a skilled negotiator. At age 22, I became a claims adjuster handling mostly automobile accidents. I negotiated property damage and injury claims, including serious injuries and death claims with attorneys. But I gladly admit that your negotiations were on a higher level. I congratulate you on your skill to go from a criminal life to an honest life and still find financial success! God bless you! I wish you all the best!
I love so much that because of Michael more and more people get to see the greatest mob movie ever made
