Prizzi's Honor Scene

[@thegreatestman851]

Anjelica Huston owned every minute of every scene in this movie ! I love her, she is so talented and beautiful

[@tommyt1971]

"Anudda cookie my deah?" Hickey stole every damn scene he was in! LOVE this flick!

[@yvc9]

Yes he did

[@rubenreyna2198]

I dont know if it was intentional but he resembles a ghoulish Nosferatu especially when he hunches & pushes the bowl of cookies with his long fingers, & creepy gravely voice. Brilliant! This whole scene made me nervous. Also im sure added makeup was used to make Mr. Hickey seem older. A great role of his long career.

[@patrickmcdowell2804]

Allegedly, what really unlocked this character for Hickey was John Huston telling him that he's playing a lizard.

[@warhols25]

William Hickey deserves every highest accolade as a cookie mobster godfather ! Oscars dishonored themselves with this tiny overlooking :-)

[@commanderkeen3787]

They nominated him for Best Supporting Actor but he didn't win

[@georgebradley4583]

This guy plays the voice of Finklestein AKA the Evil Scientist in The Nightmare before Christmas.

[@yvc9]

Holy shit I knew i had heard that voice brfore

[@landesal]

can you imagine he was only 58 at the time of the movie? he looks like hes 95 here.

[@ejrosenthal]

Hickey is amazing in this movie. Haunting! Unforgettable.

[@kdohertygizbur]

He totally got screwed not winning Best Supporting Actor Oscar ...to frigging Don Ameche's undeserved nomination for Cocoon

[@yp3424]

@@kdohertygizbur Yep, that's true. However, D. Ameche gave his own little recital as Mortimer Duke in 1983's "Trading places".

Forget Brando. Hickey was the best Godfather on film. Brando could never be this funny, endearing and dangerous in the same scene. The Academy missed a big one here.

[@gregoryphillips3969]

This movie doesn't get enough credit for how great it was.

[@Beerlejuice]

William Hickey was the BEST!!! What a scary, frightening monster! Nobody, but nobody has as sinister or evil a sounding voice as William Hickey! He's the best part of the film, and I would say definitely the scariest and most macabre mobster ever!!! :D

[@born2grooveu]

Hickey is brilliant… …..we forgive nothing…….

[@FingerBreakerWu]

Hickey lived a hard friggin life he died at 69...looked like his was in his 80s his last 10 years.

[@scottskipper19]

What I find hard to believe is that Hickey was only 57 when this was filmed. Looks well into his 80's here.. Awesome actor though

[@tommyt1971]

Shit, he looks ONE HUNDRED and fifty seven!!

[@eazye088]

He's always looked old.

Angelica Huston was also great in this.

[@austinteutsch]

What a great movie. Dark comedy at it's best. But then you have all those damn talented Huston people in it! From the old man in Serria Madre with Bogart to John and the african queen, outside of the Barrymores, the Hustons were Hollywood royalty.

[@susanhamptonva4203]

Remember Mr. Hickey guesting on "Wings"? He was super.

[@grahamblack1961]

I don't know why this isn't considered a classic, "we forgive nothing" is one of my favourite moves quotes of all time. William Hickey says it with such vehemence, you can only guess how many men have died as a result of his zero forgiveness policy.

People aged differently then. Brando was only in his 40s when he played Vito Corleone.

[@johcafra]

"To do what you AX..." Hickey paid attention. View a clip of him with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder singing "By the Light of the Silvery Moon" during the play intermission in The (original) Producers. I'd like to see his performance as the seriously dispersed astronaut in Kurt Vonnegut Jr's Between Time and Timbuktu.

[@williamdalcerro9476]

Just got a comment from someone who called the film "a parody of the mafia" and that I probably didn't know it was adapted from a book. a) Yes, I am aware it is adapted from a book (I'm a teacher: I read books); and b) no, sorry, but the "mafia" is a criminal terrorist gang in Palermo, Sicily, these are (again) FICTIONAL American characters. The only thing being parodied here are Italian Americans. Fighting stereotypes by creating the same stereotypes isn't parody. It is blatant mockery. BTW: Liking the film doesn't mean you're "anti-Italian." It does mean that you've become so innoculated against the crude quality of these stereotypes that you defend them without attempting to look at them critically. Every single performer in this film hams it up, outrageously. The only purpose, again, is mockery.

[@kdohertygizbur]

You already made your comment on the movie, why post another one

[@kdohertygizbur]

You obviously never READ THE NOVEL !! You say you know it is, you read books, did you read that one You probably think the Manchurian Candidate was a tell all on Communism as well Lol PARODY

[@williamdalcerro9476]

Because i'd like to point out that your own mocking tone via my response is precisely what endless films like this have encourged, and hardened, in viewers--the idea that Italians are dimwits. "Manchurian Candidate" remains a fine movie. Plenty of wit but no mean-spirited caricatures.

Her accent here sucks , inconsistent and not very genuine sounding. Still a great performance .

[@williamdalcerro9476]

C'mon, everyone: Please stop. This performance is the Italian American equivalent of what Stepin' Fetchit was to Blacks and the Frito Bandito was to Hispanics: a crude caricature. Good make-up doesn't equal good acting. Same thing with the exaggerated Noo Yawk accents. And I hate to break it to everyone but these are FICTIONAL characters who have no relation to real-life Italian Americans---just to the caricatures of them. It's 2021: Wake up!

William Hickey: the best Godfather ever in film. Also, this scene proves that Nicholson was the worst actor in the movie. Really misscast.

[@Seiko180]

sorry but. I saw this movie yesterday just for Jack Nicholson and William Hickey, and in my opinion is not so great as everyone says, the pace it's so slow and boring, I almost fell asleep, it looks so bad for a 1985 movie.... I'm not saying is terrible but I expected more.. Jack Nicholson deserved something better.

[@devinmichaelroberts9954]

agreed, highly overrated film because anything Huston did towards the end was overrated by people in Hollywood. There way of praising a sick old man who was dying.

[@kdohertygizbur]

You are entitled to your opinion but I definitely disagree What were your expectations?

[@Seiko180]

​@@kdohertygizburI expected something memorable in the film, when I figured out that this is a movie about Mafia featuring Jack Nicholson I expected that he's gonna be badass with a strong temperament like he usually has accustomed us, but at the end his character was so bland and forgettable
