[@archibaldhaddock5474]

My all-time favorite movie, period. I saw it like 100 times, no kidding.

[@tga2848]

I watched it a couple times before I realized Tommy borrowed the chef knife from his mother before he was aware Billy Batts was still alive in the trunk.

@@tga2848 He wanted the knife to cut up and dismember the body. It just happened to come in handy because he was still alive.

[@tga2848]

@@groob33 Yea that's an acceptable explanation but in the real world its not very practical tool for dismemberment. A handsaw may be better. One gets the impression at the time, that he was getting the knife specifically so he could finish off poor old Billy.

[@twobirdsstonedatonce]

This film stands as a monument to human creativity. Not many people I've met that don't have Goodfellas somewhere in the top of their list of favorite films. Even after watching it countless times there is a sense of wonder you feel as the scenes play out... I'm sure there are many others like me who could quote most of the film from memory LOL

[@GazAce]

One of the greatest if not THE greatest gangster films ever made. How this didn’t clean up at the Academy’s was an absolute crime ( excuse the pun ) 🙏

The fact that this movie lost the Oscar to Dances With Wolves is a real head scratcher.

[@cho7777]

Both great movies. I would still rank Dances With Wolves on Top.

[@moochercat]

@@cho7777 well, people are still talking about Goodfellas 30 years later. Dances With Wolves.. not so much.

[@gmont5082]

Dances with wolves was a great movie too and more of an artsy film so i can see why it won the Oscar over a very violent mob movie that wasnt even well received at first... Goodfellas is definitely at the top of my list but it makes sense why it didnt win knowing how the award committees work...

[@samanthab1923]

Disgraceful. Saw DWW once. Goodfellas can't count & the scenes still hold up.

[@kthx1138]

DWW deserved its Oscars for cinematography, costume design, art direction, John Barry's music score and several performances. The directing, by Kevin Costner, while artistic, was relatively simplistic. If not an Oscar for Scorcese's direction, Goodfellas definitely deserved an Oscar for film editing by Thelma Schoomaker!

[@douglasgrossman6200]

One of the all time great movies. You can watch it over and over and over.

[@elephantello1518]

I love how Scorsese says "in the previews the audience didn't like the jump cuts so we made it even faster" or how George Miller said "we made the movie we wanted not what the feedback we got from screenings." In going mad, the fury road documentary. As filmgoers we like to think we know what we want but we don't. We only know what we want after its already been given to us. An artist must be fearless on conveying his vision exactly how he wants it. If you listen to what everyone is saying you are asking to be like everyone, mediocre/ordinary and that's how mediocre movies music and art in general gets made.

[@arpitdas4263]

True.Listening to all feedback you get averages things outs,leaving art toothless and gutless

"Arguably" the key word here 😁 I ADORE goodfellas and it's not just THE gangster film but one of the all time greatest films ever... .but I struggle to call it the greatest of the 90s as for me there is so much competition from so many great films of that decade that I love ....too many to mention but some examples are, Shawshank Redemption, Usual Suspects, Heat, Basic Instinct, Disclosure, Sliver, Shattered, Jurassic Park, Matrix, American Beauty, Terminator 2-Judgement Day, Fight Club, Devils Advocate, ....and they are only a handful of my favourite films that are award winning/worthy....I also have so many guilty pleasures 😋😆...

[@elldre3]

I was an extra in 'Article 99', a movie shot in my hometown Kansas City. 'Goodfellas' had been in the theaters several months. I was standing in a hallway with other extras and noticed Ray Liotta coming towards us down the hall. I looked at the floor, planning to casually look up as he passed by, but Liotta chose to turn and glare right at me the exact moment I looked up. That was my autograph, in living color.

[@tommyandrews4992]

After watching this movie well over 500 times since its release, I can honestly say it never gets old! My absolute favorite movie out of the 4,000 + movies I own on DVD. as a matter of fact I own 10 copies of this movie since I wore out 3 DVDs so far from playing it over and over. Yes I'm obsessed with it that much lol

[@paulleverton9569]

1990 was a fantastic year for Mafia films. Godfather III was a let down but Goodfellas and Miller's Crossing are still two of the very best. Miller's Crossing is still my favourite film of all time.

Goodfellas is Marty's version of The Godfather--more violent, more hyperkinetic, more schizophrenic.

[@user-yp9iu2qy9w]

Also the better version

[@Senate300]

In many ways Goodfellas was the Anti-Godfather.

[@edvenuto9614]

Goodfellas no matter when I watch it always feel like the first time. I love goodfellas it's funny gripping and exciting. The characters are great. There so many great moments in the movie. I watch it so many times I can't count. It's amazing epic remarkable Martin the beat director.

[@Spills51]

100%. Goodfellas and Jaws always grab me no matter what Im doing when I see it. Such a rare quality for a movie to be able to do to someone watching.

[@mattlawrence1932]

I grew up with both masterpieces & studied both of them & at my current age this is how i think of these two films now.... The Godfather is the Family mob movie & Goodfellas is the Homie mob movie, they both mirror eachother& are equally perfect for that one reason alone💯 i liked both those films more than eachother at certain points & times over the decades but Goodfellas is really ment more for the younger adults & The GF is more more for the wiser older adults that already been thru all the bravidocious & all the pridefulness in they're lives already & the Godfather is the movie u rather watch more after u get over that younger period of your life 💯

[@Hugh_Jurrection]

I've noticed that Scorsese is brilliant at letting actors be the character. He appears to only limit the actor by telling them what the situation is and what the outcome should be, then let the actors work together to figure out how to get there.

[@chloekit4861]

What makes it cool for me as a fan of this movie is I live where the scenes were filmed and grew up where the real guys grew up

[@badad0166]

They look so young in the interviews. It goes so fast.

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

Um...well, it IS over 32 years old, so they WERE young in the interviews. Kinda how that works.

[@badad0166]

@R.P. McMurphy Math is math. Obviously. I was under 30 when it came out and now I'm 60. But they look younger in the "making of" than they did in the movie. Ray anyway. When you start getting up there and the kids are grown and the walls are closing in, you start looking back and wondering where the time went. If you are lucky and you get up there, you'll see what I mean.

[@pab1381]

There are a bunch of films ppl either don’t associate with Scorsese or they forget that he’s done. Like “Bringing Out the Dead”, “Kundun”, “Cape Fear”, and “Age of Innocence”. Everybody knows “Goodfellas”, “Casino”, and “Irishman” along with “Wolf of Wall Street”. When he’s on point those 2.5-3 hour runtimes feel like 90 mins. ThTs when you know it’s a well made movie.

[@DetectiveTrupo203]

Cape Fear and The King of Comedy are both brilliant, and are two of the legendary collaborations between Scorsese and DeNiro along with Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, and Casino and the others.

I imagine that, at Scorsese's funeral, there will be Scottish bagpipe music. Trivia: his parents' and grandparents' last name was spelled "Scozzese" -- which is the Italian word for "Scottish" or "Scotsman" -- but in his case it became "Scorsese" thanks to a clerical error on his birth certificate. He does indeed claim some Scottish ancestry.
