We are Italian we do Italian things like crime

Oh, so the Italian Mafia they work for isn't Italian? You must be an idiot

MOTHERFUCKING MUTT. YOU YOU PIECE OF SHIT

BASED

It isn't. Lucchese family was an American mafia and had farm more irish and and amerimutts than actual italians. But you would know that because you have all that "authority and knowledge" right You sad little baiter.

I wouldn't say terrible, but he does keep on making the same movie. Not a great movie either.

You are a complete and total idiot, you wouldn't know the first thing about a good film even if the blooper reel smacked you in the face. Goodfellas is about Italians and its embarrassing that you consider it a good movie

He made 4 mafia movies out of 25 in total, if you even consider Mean Streets to be a mob movie. What are you even talking about?

His career should've ended twenty years ago

What are you, in the Martin Scorcese Fan Club? Get off his jock, faggot

Wasted trips you mindless contrarian. Get the fuck out. Jimmy and Harry are half-Irish you mug. Harry’s wife is Jewish. The film isn’t just ‘about Italians’ like you claim. It’s about how a mans search for superiority and power can lead a man to a dark path.

You have no power here, contrarian. Go back to the shadows from whence you came

>You are a complete and total idiot
Said the guy who can't differentiate between Italian and American mafias.
>Goodfellas is about Italians
I just proved that it isn't. The main character isn't Italian, Conway isn't Italian. I think you just don't know shit about this movie, hon. Please don't cry.

I just like to btfo retarded babies who pull arguments out of their asses. You literally saw 5, maybe more of his movies and convinced yourself that you are an expert. I suggest you stop sucking your own dick, it's bad for your spine.

Did either of you go to film school? Did either of you actually write anything? I did both so your opinions are automatically shit compared to mine considering I actually have an understanding of how the whole process works. Martin Scorcese is a hack and Goodfellas IS an Italian based movie. Have you even read the book that the movie is based on? No you haven't. Get a clue.

Coming from the guy that has Scorceses dick so far up his ass that you're speaking Italian, doesn't really mean much

I am unironically a movie writer.

XXX remakes of your god Scorceses films dont count

You are very terrible at this. I'll humor you. If you'd actually read Wiseguys you wouldn't be as retarded. Because during the prison chapters Henry extrapolates how Lucchese family is so far from Italian origins and codes that he's perplexed how they even not on fire constantly by other families.
I'll have you know that I am actually award winning scriptwriter, hon. So you have zero relevance. While you were at film school I was at movies. Get smoked.

>Italians in the USA form Mob and act like Chimpanzees
>Italian diaspora in Argentina, Australia and Brazil are actually civilized and became productive members of their societies early on
What gives?

shit the fuck up and start suckin

Hey, it's better to be bilingual that post shit on topics I don't know anything about and get btfo a post later, don't cry, hon, watch more movies.

You're literally proving my point by pointing out that portion of the book, I wouldn't expect you to understand how the book is a commentary on Italian American life and how it correlates to the family itself, retards dont understand nuance or subtlety

How do you guys feel about the intro scene? I feel like it works, but I don't know exactly why it works so well

"in media res", sure, but then we backtrack years and years to his teenage years

I was an italian american and never got the hype for that Goodfellas, Sopranos mob shit. "You mek me mad i make boom boom in your head"

It’s a great way of showing us the horrors of being a gangster and then immediately cut to Henry glorifying them, thus showing us what Harry expected being a gangster was like and what it was really like.

>"What I want you to do is, right, swear at Joe Pesci for two hours. You got that? We'll make millions!"
>"You're a genius"

Me, actually have graduated from film school, compared to yourself. I've seen all of his movies and they are very formulaic and bland

does Scorsese use that technique in any other film?

>It’s a great way of showing us the horrors of being a gangster and then immediately cut to Henry glorifying them, thus showing us what Harry expected being a gangster was like and what it was really like.
This would've been an interesting way to introduce Vallon's character in 'Gangs...'

>nuance or subtlety
Honey, you are exposing yourself as a person who didn't read the book. It's true crime, not prose. It's written as dry narration spliced with anecdotes from Hill's life. That's all it is. Actually read it though. It's very good.
>commentary on Italian American life
Yeah, what great perspective from a none italians person, honey, you are desperate, none of it is in the book.

I never understood why it was acceptable to stereotype certain minorities but not others.

Imagine making a film or tv show about Indians living in America and all they did was shit in the street, run 7/11s, crash their cars, bob their heads, eat curry and lie on medical school applications? It'd get nowhere near being released.

Want to stereotype Italians? Go ahead.

I have read the book and I wrote a thesis on it, you're completely missing the entire point of the book, which was shit to begin with so I dont understand how it's hard to comprehend. It seems like you're doing strange mental gymnastics to justify your love of a subpar book and an even worse film
