Once Upon A Time In America - Scott Tiler & Rusty Jacobs - Interview

[@livebassngames]

OMG They look identical to their young selves.... best quote of the movie "Noodles..... I slipped..." unbelievable they are as grateful as they can be for getting to be Max and Noodles

[@danielreichert2025]

The movie had a powerful impact on me because of its instant nostalgia quality that tugged at my heart as if it were a fond memory of mine. It’s hard to describe but it was a powerful feeling that Sergio was capable of making

[@chickencharlie1992]

I love how much they love this movie

[@bensantiago4557]

very interesting to see the two actors grown up and talking about their experience.One of my favorite movies of all time

[@TiberiusBorbely]

This was so cool to watch, it's like catching up with two old friends you haven't seen in a very long time... I loved it! Also OUATIA is probably my favorite film, truly a masterpiece that deserves the "they don't make 'em like that anymore" comment. Sergio Leone should've lived to 100! But he is always mentioned as one of the greatest directors to ever live...

[@apesce1]

This is amazing, so glad to have stumbled upon this reunion.

[@legoman769]

Never thought i would hear from these guys again!

[@pmgee6780]

Great to see these two after all this time, Once Upon A Time In America was and still is one of my favourite films of all time. Even today roughly 30 years after I first saw the film I still watch some of my favourite clips on KZbin.

[@cynicaloptimist970]

Tiler, Jacobs... Thank you for your parts in my number one all time favorite movie ever! Really, THANK YOU!!!

[@johndela4911]

Masterpiece... by Sergio!

[@MarioDiLeonardo]

This was great. It must be awesome for them to have been in one of the best movies in cinema history.

[@simon34007]

My opinion is that Scott Tiler gave that special light to one of the most beautiful movie of ever and with the greatest of ever Robert de Niro.Scott:you are a great Actor so why didn't you go ahead?Alltheway i am very sure that many new actors will come out from your actor school where they have this great luck to can have you as their teacher.Supercongratulations and thank you so much for your great interpretation in this unforgottable movie.

[@martinsorenson6387]

It always seemed so clever how their young characters resembled James Woods and Robert Deniro characters so well. The casting was meticulous, they must have gone through hundreds to find the right ones. They don't look too different now than they did as kids, (tho nothing like the stars), I really appreciate this gem. Thanks for posting

[@jaydee4009]

I never thought that young Noodles (Scott Tiler) came close to resembling Robert Deniro. Maybe that's why they spent so much attention on young Noodles' mole....

[@cannonballkid]

Specifically the setting of New York, in particular Old New York - Leone captures it so well. Back then in the late 80's even early 90's it was still there to be seen. Unfortunately that version that motif of New York its gone. From the exterior of the buildings being replaced with new high rises to more importantly the people, native New Yorkers - truly all in the past now.

[@frankiemontero]

No, it's not. They're still many buildings from that time period that still stand and the inside stairs, ceilings and walls are from the early 1900's and They're still there. Especially down in Chinatown, the Village and Lower East Side. It definitely was much easier to capture that New York in the early 80s. It does look like Lego Land now lol and doing a wide shot of old New york is out the window at this point haha but many Native New Yorkers like myself are still here, swarmed by transplants, but still here. Talk to the doormen, the garbage men and city workers, maintence workers, truck drivers- They're all native New Yorkers. We're here, hidden under all the bullshit...

[@ishtiaquehossain6350]

Omg this is hidden gem!

[@CostantinoVercetti]

I loved this video. What a great movie and what a great cast!

[@omarengo]

FANTASTIC!! great actors and MASTERPIECE movie!!!

[@catch22ni]

amazing movie and these guys were superb young actors

[@stlynum]

awe, so cool to watch this interview, especially since I just watched the movie again on tv. loved Noodles and i fell in love with DeNiro all over again.

[@stephenmanley4097]

It's a fantastic film and I hope it gets a 4K restoration and released on 4K disc.

[@TiberiusBorbely]

They are working on a 4K scan/restauration in Italy, according to some reports it should be out in 2025.

[@stephenmanley4097]

@TiberiusBorbely I hope so it's long overdue 👍

[@chaoscriminal]

damn good movie damn good cast this was a nice video one of the best movies i ever seen

[@happysopink2010]

This was cool. Thank you for posting.

[@Macjoni71]

Only a great filmmaker as Sergio Leone can turn a average gangster novel and NY streets into an magical epic movie that touches many inner emotions. A movie that never gets old that i personally consider a Masterpiece , in my childhood Leone was my hero and stands with Orson Welles among the best Directors of the past century .

[@theexpresidents]

You've read _The Hoods?_ It isn't mediocre at all.

[@alexandreveitsman]

Thank You For Posting. They were good. I wish I was good like them.

[@nikusha29n]

Wow you guys are grow up so much. Great movie with great actors.

[@nikusha29n]

God bless you guys!!! You both of you are the great and greatest!!! 😎😉👍🏻✌🏻😔

[@ohhsi2541]

You guys make half of this movie...great jobs👍

[@lastcommodore9651]

Interesting. I was always curious if they'd grown to look anything like DeNiro and Woods.

[@Sulu-sw3zo]

Same. I didn't think that he was a good match for Woods, but definitely closer re De Niro.

I saw Tiler (Noodles) in a commercial sometime after the film came out, but never saw Rusty in anything. Saw the kid who played "Patsy" Goldberg in one of the soap operas.

[@theexpresidents]

Tiler was in another classic eighties film: _Three O'Clock High._

[@57highland]

@@theexpresidents Oh yeah, "Three O'Clock High", the movie where the main character (Casey Siemaszko?) is going to get his ass kicked by the school tough guy right after school (3:00 p.m.). Right?

[@alexm2930]

So cool

[@haranbanjo8024]

[@k-baye6292]

Great to see that noodles and max sorted out their differences and stages friends.

[@shane-irish]

Why didnt they do anything after this

[@josemourinho5600]

Cause i think, rusty jacobs is now working as a lawyer

[@theexpresidents]

Because Hollywood---and success---is hard. I know your phone makes you think otherwise, but, I assure you, Life is hard.

[@frankn.5439]

Rusty is solid and genuine. He's personable and friendly. He'll sign autograph's and let you take his picture, Scott Tiler on the other hand is the complete opposite of Rusty. He's unfriendly and distant and not a genuine person.

[@fernandomaron87]

Have you met them both personally? Scott always came across as a cool guy to me, but i also think that Rusty seems cooler

[@frankn.5439]

@@fernandomaron87 I met Rusty once in the 90's, spoke with him briefly. He's very affable around others. Scott is probably a good guy towards his own friends but is definitely not fan friendly and has always kept his distance. He worked at the actors building on Pico Blvd near me and believe me when I say he isn't even interested in signing any memorabilia from his films, he doesn't want anyone contacting him, stopping him on the street and bothering him.

[@scottschutzman2265]

@@frankn.5439 Frank, Im sorry I have no recollection of our having met. If I was aloof to you in anyway I apologize. I am grateful for all the people who have watched this movie and who have shown their love and support for Noodles over these years. I have always been open to signing autographs and talking to fans. Hope all is well.
