Love this, from the GQ oral history:
During a break, one of the Mob guys in the movie comes to me and he says, “What is this ‘ball-breaker’ thing that you’re saying, the ‘unconscionable?’ ” I said, “You know, in the Caribbean there’s conch shells; you can’t break ‘em.” They all give me like the thumbs-up: “Oh, I get it. ‘Unconscionable!’”

there have been ilx threads where ive done injustice to this movie based on half-interested, half-remembered and half-caught viewings. saw it tonight from start to finish with full attn and needless to say its a masterpiece and I crave full pardon.

This is the movie that taught me to chop garlic into very thin strips
― xelab, Saturday, 19 September 2015 18:13 (ten years ago)
This is the movie that made me feel inadequate because I couldn't chop the garlic into thin enough strips. I just wanted them to dissolve when they touched the sauce!

One thing I do reflexively because of Goodfellas: whenever a friend orders a steak medium-rare, I'll say "Ah, an aristocrat." (Not that I'm dining in steakhouses every night--a couple of times a year, most recently two weeks ago.)

My cinephile roommate dragged me to see this about a week after it was released (he'd already seen it on opening day). Watching the "You think I'm funny?" scene in a theater full of people who had no idea what was coming next was absolutely chilling/hilarious.
After the movie, my roommate and I took the train home. Upon walking into our building, we saw that the front glass doors were shattered and covered in blood. The building manager was in the lobby, mopping up blood. He said, "Don't worry about it boys, just some random vandalism. Go on upstairs." In my mind, this is inextricably linked to Goodfellas.

A federal jury in Brooklyn cleared Vincent Asaro on all counts in a trial for charges related to the 1978 Lufthansa robbery, along with other acts of racketeering and extortion.

Someone tell Scorsese I fixed his movie:

It'll still kill your suspension of disbelief if you look at it too closely, but it's better than what it was.

I knew he was tending the sauce, but I never connected that character to both scenes!

So many family members, tending the sauce.
iirc, the whole scene was ad-libbed.
