The level of affection that I have for Goodfellas should be monitored by some sort of professional.
I was thinking about the movie again the other day and one scene keeps floating to the top of my tiny brain.
So the movie’s starting to pick up. Instead of a 5-10 minute section about how the mob works which would really slow things down, Martin Scorsese drops this scene on us. In under 40 seconds he explains how mob protection and payments work. Insanely great. Also, Ray Liotta kills it in this voice over.
