Mean Streets | Gang Fight at the Pool Hall | Warner Classics

[@RichWeigel]

This must have been around the time that Richie took the jacket off the toughest guy in Essex County.

[@Pbadome1]

Hah, I thought so. You saved me from googling. Classic movie, 1972 Mean Streets where I first heard the word "Mook" and have been using it since. Keitel was the star, Deniro was just starting. The following year Deniro was in Taxi Driver and Harvey Keitel was basically a nobody in that movie.

[@Milofchg]

Ha hahahahaha!!!!

Love this film. Harvey Keitel, Robert De Niro, and the rest of the cast are great

IT’S THE JAAAAAACKEEEEEEEEEET!!!!

[@swashkiv7509]

Gave it to some polack maid

[@menikmati789]

Wearing the jacketttttt!

[@azohundred1353]

Robert De Niro and Harvey Keitel's character's watching The Searchers in the movie theater in Mean Streets is a nice tip of the hat from Martin Scorsese to John Ford(one of his biggest directorial influences). Both of them are now legendary filmmakers.

[@Pbadome1]

If you remember, Scorsese's mother was in this one too.

[@ShlomoGoldbergStein]

A brawl with no resulting blood, bruises, scratches, or ripped clothing…

[@paulmeredith4515]

Yep. But I’ll bet everything I own that calling a man like that, in a place like that, “a mook,”which is prison for homosexual btw, would result in a beating

[@RidgeRunner-lz5ko]

Scorcese got a lot better at violen ce in his films.

[@michaelmorrow9048]

People Freak when I tell them This is my #1 Scorsese film. What!? What about Goodfellas??? AY! Tell the Goodfellas to Bring their Shine Box they wanna complain.

[@stevennieto9898]

You're flexinnnnn'. Hey. You're *flexin'*.

[@louporreca3795]

[@cane6074]

Like the part with the guy playing pool and acting like that nothing is wrong. Also, Martin Scorsese has a unique genius when comes using music in his films to fit scenes and mood, and it dose not come of as a gimmick unlike a lot of filmmakers.

[@amjh4lah809]

500th like❤ WHAT A FILM!!❤

[@molanlabexm15]

You can’t call me a mook. “I can’t?” 💥

[@Pbadome1]

"A mook, what's a mook"

[@molanlabexm15]

Mooky how?

[@bax323]

And over 50 years later nobody knows what a mook is.

The word "mook" is slang for a person who is foolish, insignificant, or contemptible

[@COBALT_iLLADELPH]

Love Mean Streets😂😂

[@CaneFu]

I have witnessed a lot of real life bar fights and this one was actually the most realistic in a movie...right up until the cops showed up out of nowhere. The police NEVER show up until after the fight is long over.

[@dirtbag3736]

Even if they know they get paid off?

[@CaneFu]

@@dirtbag3736 That was pure movie BS

[@CutsCity413]

You got into it with a bunch of girl scouts if it looked like that haha ga y est fight scene I have seen in a while

[@CaneFu]

@@CutsCity413 Obviously you have never witnessed any real fights because they all look just as chaotic and unskilled as these guys did. FYI, I spent 4 years as a bouncer in a large bar and all technique goes out the window in a bar fight even if the participants know martial arts. Every Hollywood movie I have ever seen with a bar fight is nothing but ridiculously unrealistic choreography.

[@damienholland9244]

@@CaneFu I don't get into fights or nothing but I agree. When I see guys fighting almost always they're wildly swinging their fists like that. Guys with a lot of training might be different but they're the exception. Also a lot of fights end up on the ground if the first punches don't knock anyone out.

[@sammihaka2056]

Even Martie's movie cameos were scary in Mean Streets and Taxi Driver; must've been due to "practicing" all those lines.

[@warsofdiadochix6710]

The thing I like about this movie is it shows Robert De Niro exactly what he is in real life. He is an Idiot.

[@bepponabuco7389]

Robert Dum Nero is a true life Mook! 🤣

David Proval would have been the perfect Sonny Corleone instead of James Caan.

[@Pbadome1]

"Davis, how 'bout I give you some car fare". "Ok" "Took you long enough, where you going?" "Jersey" he gives him money then "Philadelphia" Only Scorsese. If you remember this movie, Scorsese is the one that shot Johnny Boy (Deniro) in this movie in a cameo.

I also saw that in Donnie Brasco.

@Pbadome1 donnie Brasco came out in 97 mean streets is a 70s or early eighties flick if I'm not mistaken... Trust me they lifted this from crazy joe

[@Pbadome1]

@@Theimperialone-o2g Mean Streets was 1972, I have no disagreement about Joe Gallo, I only made mention that they did this also in Donnie Brasco based on the true story of FBI agent Joe Pistone infiltrating the mob back in 1976

​@@Theimperialone-o2gAGREE 💯!

[@dominysynclair]

The guy calls him a mook, asks him what's a mook, then they attack him before they find out what a mook is. Maybe mook is good, he doesn't know...

I've seen this movie twice and the second time was just to see what I missed because of all the praise it seemed to be getting. I wasn't impressed by anything in this movie. I'll take Goodfellas over this every time. It doesn't even make my top five of Scorcese movies.

[@Duosiciliano]

Because you don't understand it. It's for a very niche audience and captures a way of life that most can’t comprehend.

[@Mr1gladiatore]

@@Duosiciliano Way of life? You mean street life, hoodlum, gangster, etc... still not Scorcese's best.

[@Duosiciliano]

@@Mr1gladiatore No. South Italian diaspora, the mannerisms, language etc and the archetypes. Even down to the soundtrack and struggles of Catholic guilt. It’s all very real.
