Reading Goodfellas - What Paulie was all about

[peeweesherman]

The movies have made me glad to not be an Italian American, you know due to the horrible deaths and all.

[Fanik10]

Dinner in Prison makes me the hungriest

[chaunceyvioli]

Tony "stacks" is paulie

[SonnyA89]

@chaunceyvioli Paul Vario is Paulie, Tony Stacks is his brother the one who looks like a bulldog.

[chaunceyvioli]

@SonnyA89 no, i meant paulie from the sopranos

[SonnyA89]

@chaunceyvioli Ohh yeah lmao when I first saw Sopranos i'm like eh that's Tony Stacks from Goodfellas. You know he was a real mob associate right?

[MrIlleism]

Thumbs up if Anybody saw Paul from the Sopranos there in beginning?

[ryan49er1]

this scene reminded me of the godfather in the beginning clip...the guy was there to get revenge for his daughter and he couldn't go to the police

[fab003003]

@ryan49er1 hmm you should rewatch the godfather than, cause he went to the police FIRST

"Why did you go to the police, why didn't come to me first" -Don Corleone

[TheBackOfTheBoat]

Don't forget that Paulie was cooking sausage when Henry had to apologize to him for going behind his back and selling drugs. Paulie's upset because Henry has gone against the "noble" traditions and honor code of the old mafia, and you can hear the sausage sizzling when he says "Now I gotta turn my back on you."

[jerseybuddy1]

I WOULD SUCK PAUL SORVINO'S COCK AND SWALLOW HIS CUM ANYTIME!!

[trekfan92]

@jerseybuddy1 dude, do you need to post this shit on every Goodfellas video?

[92af]

Goodfellas is much better than Da Vinci Code is

[lambda1982]

What I love about this movie is that most of the scenes were shot exactly where the film claims they were. In this clip (shot in East New York, Brooklyn), you notice that the backyard of Paulie's house is small and enclosed in a chain link fence. Beyond the fence you can see the empty lots which are over grown by weeds. This is exactly the condition that the neighborhood was in during the 80's and early 90's.

[TheManfromNibiru]

Paulie offered protection, Police Dept for wise guys. people who couldnt go to the cops. Sounds fimiliar. HAAAAAA  Offering protection. getting to much cream.

[CrossBallsFULL]

Cheers

[CeaSaH1]

what a great scene, the food make it complete!

[hork111]

@CeaSaH1 I think Paulie enjoyed being lord of the manor. "Beaudiful. C'mon boys, let's eat."

[CeaSaH1]

@hork111

Yeah that's for sure men!

in everbody scene you're in is it also your like the respect from the people :-))

[NJsBiggestAssHole]

so what paulie did was gave protection to people who could not go to the law enforcement, so they could not get in trouble as well?

when i say protection i mean, ''wheres my money, protection''?

[mongoose704]

@NJsBiggestAssHole Basically they would shakedown criminals for tribute. Yes in turn the cops would turn their backs and sometimes other protections would result, like from outsiders moving in on a dealer's territory, etc. Yes a large part of that protection was of the "you won't sleep with the fishes until its time for the next tribute" type.

[Justin8806]

real gangsters

this flick was the shit

[nilbud]

"almost skittishly visualized" means nothing.

[PJSkins26]

I know this was 9 years before The Sopranos came out but whenever I think of Tony Sirico (Paulie). I think of those those little grey streaks of hair he had on both side of his head. Werid seeing him without them.

[vitocampos]

Sirico but also Big Pussy after the Jimmy 2 Times 'scene' with the jackets.

[bigfootgunot]

holy shit. is that tony sirico (paulie walnuts) at 00:15 ????

[987steel]

yes it is, he has had small parts in most of the mob movies (may be one line or two)

[jaxl2009]

Yep, that's him. A number of characters in this movie were also in The Sopranos.

[Pentagon1311]

@bigfootgunot yup that's him xD

[malmswax]

Paulie (like any boss)- "Capo che non parla tanto, ma fa quelo que si deve fare"

("Doesn't talk much, but does what he has to")

"Plausible Denial" folks...keeps the grand jury and FBI away!

[tdv123456]

was paulie a captain or a boss?

[highroller12208]

He was a captain

[Vykkdraygo713]

he was a captain..or capo as they call it

[prosteelheader]

paulie is so awesome. calm, cool, and collected. great portrail by paul!!!

[Vykkdraygo713]

you forgot COLDDDD. ;)

[theinfamouscamXXII]

Do you think the scene where they're cooking in prison in kind of a homage to the scene in The Godfather where Clemenza is teaching Michael how to cook?

[DaColt88]
