Rewind: Joe Pesci on early jobs, Home Alone recognition, quoted lines & more (1997)

My 1997 interview with Joe Pesci during the press tour for "8 Heads in a Duffel Bag." We talked about his short-lived singing career, early jobs, how kids react to him, people quoting lines to him and more.

He's so calm and nice in real life.

It's weird because my aunt said she met the guy once and said he was a schmuck. Strange

[@gabewelton1239]

@@jasonchaos236 did she call him funny? Like a clown?

[@benstevens6950]

@@jasonchaos236Funny how? did she think he was there to amuse her?

[@anthonylaloggia112]

@@jasonchaos236 she may have pissed him off. And schmuck? Is she Jewish? Lol not that that’s a problem but that’s hilarious😂. He does have a temper, but if you’re cool he’s cool

“OH SHIT UP MARV”

[@thacryinggame]

Pesci is a great actor in so many ways he’s one of the rarest breeds ever. Unbelievably talented wow

[@circlemagazine]

Out those great Movies he did with Scorsese n De Niro he steals the show, by far the most interesting performances

[@visualonestudio]

The interview asks such good questions. He really brought out great responses from Mr. Pesci

[@likelydaily6767]

I’d never really listened to Joe speak except outside of movies until now. I thought he might be a bit more edgy but he’s like the nicest warmest guy ever. Awesome.

[@Alffovinni]

thanks for this rare interview!

Remember never drive through the drive thru.. One of the funniest moments in movie history 😂

[@griefforest1870]

I loved the first Lethal Weapon, but as soon as I saw that Joe Pesci was in the second one (It surprised me, I didn't see any trailers or promotional material) I knew the second one would be even better. That scene had me shaking with laughter

[@ADAMdinho1]

They always f*ck you at the drivethrough

[@trickysmithy9154]

If I ever meet him I’m immediately gonna call him “a funny guy”

[@jinroh516]

Your funeral

[@JoeSmith-dl9ok]

I wouldn’t fuck w Joe Pesci. He’s a serious dude

[@camicamzz868]

Lol! “Funny how??? Do I amuse you???” Love him!!!!!

[@NbSkaz]

Tim Curry (concierge on Home Alone 2) talked about being recognised on a flight by a kid. Thought it was funny cause 'he was mean to Kevin' lol

[@mikasaackerman6780]

Before becoming an actor, singer, or hairdresser, I heard we was also a good shoes shiner

[@mikehunt7360]

Don’t bust his balls!

Legend

[@vranime3772]

2:27 He he

[@noonecaresworkharder9125]

Damn to think he played Nicky Santoro just a couple years before lol

[@thacryinggame]

Greatest ever

[@KRPTV]

It's a wonder his hair grew back after getting his head burned twice with a blow torch!😄😄😄

[@mzcrystallover93]

Lol yeah

[@user-md7zi6fg9y]

Maybe he went to a head spa to get a massage on the scalp from there

[@jjkcharlie]

Vincent LaGuardia Gambini

[@chatolopez3751]

And he play the bad guy from michael jackson moonwalker movie

[@divineisles]

he’s actually very nice and cute 🥰

[@asandwell]

He seems rather self-conscious and maybe a little insecure, what with the way he holds his hands and the slight hesitance with which he answers the questions. Can't imagine Tommy, Harry, or Leo coming off like that!

[@Godless-Being]

He’s always Harry from H.A in my eyes

[@curtishall797]

You're a funny guy Joe 🤣

[@seyfti74]

Funny how?

[@adamtrogdon959]

Like a clown?

[@stefanbernhard2710]

Joe Pesci singing? 😂😂😂

[@Stevesguitartraveling777]

He’s actually pretty good. He’s more old-school like Frank Sinatra where it’s jazz.
