1. "Shine box", not "Shoe box." You gota' be kidding, dunsky. 2. I've studied that masterpiece moment, the "Funny? How?" scene very carefully. Its unambiguous impact comes from the supporting actors around the table. It is their dread which the viewing audience absorbs. I used it for a number of auditions as a monologue, but it never seemed to land, despite the fact that it is well within my range and natural character type. Eventfully, it dawned on me why: the supporting cast's 'reaction shots' was vital for its successful delivery.

At 1:45, the narrator names Paul Sorvino, but it shows Robert DeNiro.

Correction: Ft. Bragg, California is a bucolic resort town. When it was an active fort on the frontier, airplanes hadn't been invented yet. Ft. Bragg, North Carolina (now Ft. Liberty) is the Home of the Airborne. I was stationed there about 30 years after Henry Hill.

Never mind that a couple of the shots were from freaking CASINO. Junk video.

Spyder was real not only that his sister complained to Henry hill that he came across as an idiot in the movie

Mrs Scorsese played a wonderful part in that movie

Henry & Karen's wedding is a very important scene as well. It shows just how close a family-like structure the mafia was, and how trusting of each other they are. You should have included that in this video - it was just overwhelming for an outsider like Karen.

Fort Bragg is in North Carolina not California. Good that that part wasn't in the movie.

The real quote is "now go home and get your fucking shine box"

I didn't see any uncut scenes

Spider's death was also a classic return to something most writers and more than a few directors seem to have forgotten. It's as simple as it gets in a complex artistic world. *Show. Don't Tell!* Others might have spent half a reel showing conversations about how crazy Tommy was. Instead, you get Murder- the ultimate expression of crazy- and never forget it!

@susieq360

6 ай бұрын

"Show; don't tell" is intended more for literature, because it's more applicable. It kinda goes without saying that exposition needs to be minimal in a visual medium like film. The irony is that Goodfellas IS exceptionally heavy on exposition, because Henry Hill obviously provides plentiful narration.

@rocistone6570

6 ай бұрын

It extends to film every day. How much time is wasted on "Talking heads" for exposition? Two or more characters on screen struggle with weak dialogue about how good or bad something or someone happens to be. Dialogue is difficult and weak. Action coupled with silence and or a state of emotion is powerful. John Wick's murdered puppy and his reaction to the event coupled with the sledgehammer on the concrete floor tell the audience far more and far more vividly about John than the drawn-out explanation that Viggo gives his doomed idiot of a son. (Although the beating Viggo gives him while it goes on is also a perfect exposition for Viggo's character.) The core problem with 95% of the schlock that gets put on film these days is simply this: Screenwriters don't know how to write action. They would rather take the easy and simple "escape hatch" of doing page after page of worthless dialogue that puts the audience to sleep face down in their popcorn buckets.

In the bar scene, the guy Tommy whoops was named BATS (short A) NOT BATES, and, it's Joe Pesci (short E) NOT PEESCI. Also, the line from Billy Bats was, "GO HOME AND GET YOUR FUCKING SHINE BOX" NOT SHOE BOX. All due respect intended.

Jesus...shoebox??? You have no right doing a video on this movie....you just trampled on one of the most iconic lines in cinematic history...

Quite an interesting presentation so far. But apparent AI assistance needed some editing. The primary actor's name is LEE-OAT-A. In the first six and a half minutes, the word "iconic" was used no less than three times. In the segment about making the audience more comfortable, there was double talk that was very reminiscent of a Kamala Harris speech. Good material, but needed human eyes to look it over before posting.

Tut! Tut! Caption for photo at 1:45 reads: "PAUL SORVINO" but shows Robert De Niro.

I think the appeal of gangster movies is most of us have unexpressed anger and even rage. The movie becomes an outlet...

When Henry served in the 82nd at Fort Bragg it was(is) in North Carolina, not North California as stated here.

is the actor paul sorvino , bob deniros relative? they look like same person, uncanny .

I hate clickbait titles. There is NO "Scene That Was Cut" in this blah blah video.

Scarface came out a decade before Goodfellas and had that chainsaw shower scene, which was controversial at the time. Tony Montana's mother knew what he was like Tommy's mother did, but she did not embrace him the same way.

Never forget Hollywood not only commercialized "political correctness",, they monetized it as well. So many people in real life have died from their twisted depictions of life,, it would terrify us all if we knew the true number. Somehow they try to keep their noses (& image) clean whitewashing anything which might be perceived as counter intuitive to what a lot of their garbage movies might depict of America's true dark underworld nature. They know "squeaky clean" doesn't work but they're smart enough to realize just the right amount of blood & gore is what actually turns movie goers on. Too much of the stuff might turn into real life "going postal" episodes they make sure they don't get blamed for. Their editing philosophy sorta follows the Goldilocks mantra,, "not too hot,, not too cold but just right" does it every time..

Fort Bragg is in North Carolina. No one says "North California." It's "Northern California." And I've been to Fort Bragg in California. There's no active Fort there.

Pesci and Vincent were once a musical comedy duo.

Most authentic (with some controversy,naturally!) Mob Life that ever we seen!

One scene in the movie actually happened to Henry Hill, per an interview he gave, in which the Babysitter made Henry drive her back to her house so she could pick-up her Lucky hat she'd forgotten to bring. She refused to fly without her lucky hat, thereby causing Henrys' actual real-life arrest. Henry actually had the drugs in the car the babysitter was supposed to carry onboard. Had she would've not demanded her hat, SOMEONE else would have taken her to the Airport & Henry could have stayed home & made his meatballs and been in the clear. ~per Henry Hills interview version of the actual event. Just a small fact I found very interesting.

Michael Franzese walked out of Goodfellas on his first viewing as well. But not because of the violence.

Any audience member who’d walk out of the theater because they’re put off by the violence in Goodfellas is just a person with bad taste in movies, and their opinions shouldn’t be trusted or taken into consideration.

The average movie goer in 1990 wasn't used to 'graphic violence". Only a few mainstream movies released had graphic violence. "The Wild Bunch" "Scarface" and "Taxi Driver" went the limits of what major studios would consider "releasable" to mainstream audiences. The SUITS at Warner Brothers didn't care about "HIGH ART" they cared about how many tickets they could sell. Most studios would have done the same thing-asked for cuts. I'm glad Scorcese argued but in the end he had to make all these cuts that probably watered down the intensity of the film. A major studio will NEVER back a director when it comes to graphic violence, even if it fits the tone of the film.

Frank Vincent seems to be often in the just out of prison roles

This movie is my all time favorite. A masterpiece!

Several times l sat in on first screenings and Press screenings of movies. In later years l participated in test audiences. You might be surprised that most of the time, our opinions were ignored and the Director ,Producers changed nothing. In fact when there were alternative endings, l never saw the audiences choice end up in the final release.

If one person walks out of a movie it exposes a negative impact result upon just one person ,why panic? why feel compelled to alter it? Its just the way the pumpkin squirts
