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 (nine years ago) link
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.

breaking real-life relevance via the NYT
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.

Saw this on 35mm in Astoria, more fully appreciated Chuck Low's performance as Morrie the toupee guy.
and yeah, all the Sopranos

I knew he was tending the sauce, but I never connected that character to both scenes!
― pplains, Tuesday, 14 February 2017 21:38 (seven years ago) link
So many family members, tending the sauce.
iirc, the whole scene was ad-libbed.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 21:43 (seven years ago) link
Yes, largely improv'd it seems, but "hoof" was partic inspired along with Tommy's critique of Ma's painting.
Tho i first saw this in '90 (with my Italian boyfriend from Brooklyn!) it was the first time since i'd started heavily on Sopranos, so it was odd to hear "Melfi's voice" coming from Karen... She and Liotta both played the strung-out 1980 scenes well i thought.

(clearly improvisation is the way to draw indelible cameos from Mama Scorsese)

Love her scenes in the grocery store in Casino. I don't think her reaction to "I said 'freakin' head'!" could've been scripted.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Wednesday, 15 February 2017 00:37 (seven years ago) link
Been thinking anyway about ~What If~ movies set in certain eras had to have soundtracks from the year they were released. Like, the opening napalm scene of Apocalypse Now forced to have Supertramp's "Gone Hollywood" under it.
Or...
