He went from throwing away two glasses that black men drank out of in the beginning of the movie, to inviting a black man over to his home for Christmas dinner by the end of the movie. Like other commenters stated, that is a great example of character development. Not to mention, he became a lifelong friend to Don Shirley. I love films based on true events, and this is one of the best ones I've seen since Radio.
Eight minutes and it establishes Tony as mostly uneducated and probably not the brightest man, but with a shrewd, hard streak in him. Such fantastic character development.
I agree I was impressed by that explicit, deep, character exploration and depiction. In 8 minutes I feel I know everything about him. They nailed the american- Italian familia side perfectly. I mean perfectly. I worked for many years with italians and this is exactly how they will interact flawlessly in toxicity and everyday life. This scene alone made me want to watch the movie. Seems like a real gangster movie coming up in that storyline.
I love how the music doesn't stop or skip a beat and bobby rydell keeps right on singing while Tony goes over and beats the crap out of the patron. Good old Copa days in the early 60's.
This was actually a conversation we had on set. A lot of times you just had to ignore what was going on "I didn't see nothing" or you'd get in trouble too
I've played bars where fight broke out . The golden rule is : Don't stop playing , even if the song is ending ,just drag it out longer. If you stop it draws attention to the fight . If you keep playing more people will keep dancing or whatever and not get involved-in the brawl
Just realized that Tony goes extra hard when he's beating up the drunk, so that when he returns the hat, he has some blood on his shirt to back up his story.
I just got why he did the bit with the trash can. Parking in front of a fire hydrant is illegal, so he covered it with the can so any patrolling cops wouldn't realize it was there.
@@pipleehk Check out these 3 great movies with Viggo Mortensen: 1) Eastern Promises. 2) A History of Violence and 3) Appaloosa. If you want something a bit different you could check out "Captain Fantastic' also. What an amazing actor Viggo is. Eastern Promises is a terrific movie.
Tony's smart man. Bouncing at a big club like that, you probably run into your fair share of wise guys, and maybe have to put hands on them. He's getting in good with his "pal Gio" there so that he's got some juice too if he ever needs someone to vouch for him after roughing up someone who is connected.
If he roughed up a made guy being on Gio’s good graces wouldn’t save him. He would be gone. He never made any money for them. (In the movie, real life stories not shown are not included.) So he wouldn’t be of any importance and would be clipped without challenge. To me he seemed like he was trying to join up in the ranks and take care of certain favors for LaScudo.
@@griffinsalluci3787 Yeah for sure he couldn't knock out a made guy, but then again Tony is smart enough to know not to do that. I more meant "connected" guys. Guys who probably know somebody who is made, but ain't themselves yet. Gio could step in then most likely, if the guy made an issue of it. Tony seems to be well known in the neighbourhood for his ability to throw hands. I feel like if he wanted muscle work for legit mobsters, he'd already have it. I doubt he wants to commit actual crimes.
Uh he should not under any circumstances "rough up " a mafia member. ARE you nuts. People get iced for much less at a mob hangouts and restaurants. Like Raos in harlem
You're a Ded man instantly if you "rough up" a mafia member. Get capped right there. Stuff like that happens. Some dude unloaded at rao's restaurant in harlem
Well now, as an Italian, I actually needed the subtitles to understand what they were saying. I don't know why Viggo speaks so badly here, since there are videos proving he can do it much fluently.
@@djLagwayEnjoyer He speaks the typical Italian of Italian Americans. It is different from the Italian spoken in Italy. The Italian of Italian Americans is influenced by dialects of southern Italy and , at the same time, by the Anglo-Saxon pronunciation ...
This movie is an absolute gem of cinema , beautifully shot , superbly written and believable dialogue , human interest , fantastic characters all , excellent acting and the cast were all top notch . Why Hollywood does not make more of this kind of movie is beyond me . When all the other frothy box office bombs have all just passed into the history of crappy movies this little gem will still be gratifyingly watchable for decades and decades to come , if you have not seen it you really should try to .
The opening shows that Tony is hired for his muscle and then reveals Tony is more than that. He's smart enough to turn 10 dollars (to hat girl) into 100 (Gio). The opening scene is the message of the movie ... there's more here than meets the eye.
Such an amazing opening. establishes the time and place with an awesome song and introduces us to the protagonist and we instantly know what he's about
I love how Lip does this. Starts the first rowdy guy up with a juicy bomb, knocks him goofy, leaves him for his buddies to handle and grabs the other guy himself to drag out and tune up, lol thats crowd control baby!
I worked as a bouncer in a number of bars/clubs in the Phoenix area, and de-escalating tension was a big thing. However, we didn’t hesitate to put the smack down when necessary 😁
One of the best movies I’ve ever seen. I watched this movie atleast 8 times in the cinema, I wish it was back in the cinema so I could experience it like that again
@@Unqualifiedmedicalperson Yea mate ? What the good mail on that ? Sneaking in by walking backwards so they think you’re walking out .. ? Love to get the goss on really how to do it.
I watched two scenes from this movie on TH-cam, I bought it 10 mins later. Buy and watch this movie, the acting, setting and storytelling is amazing! It's based on a true story too!
After recently watching this movie all I can say is this is absolutely spectacular one of my favourite movies a fantastic storyline and great chemistry between actors. Great to see a relationship developing and Tony realising the errors of his ways. (or does he) I hope this movie gets many awards superb acting, great film directing brilliant and morally a great storyline.
Back in the 1980's, I worked for Joe Cortese's brother George and his sister Roe. They owned hair salons in New Jersey. Joe was married to Kim Delaney at the time. Kim and her then baby Jack would come into the salon. I would always say to her, "I cannot beleive Jenny is here"! (Kim played Jenny on All My Children) Never thoguth of them as Hollywood people- they were always just Joe & Kim.
The Tony character is in fact a real person. His name really was Tony Lip in real life and he's acted in a lot of big name stuff, like the Soprano's, Goodfellas and Raging Bull.
Viggo really became this character, he gained weight, his hair is short and dark and he totally has just become the guy. That’s a real talented actor that does that, and studies his character and creates him. The way he walks, the way he talks, his gestures, the way he eats and dusts his feet off, and even the way he fought, and speaking Italian. That’s a good actor.
@@a_single_white_female yeah he has has it short, and he has looked great with it shirt, like when he played the Russian mobster who was really undercover, but he really looked the part and changed his whole body and you could tell he was studying his character and creating him from top to bottom. They used to give us that in acting classes and later when I directed I would make my actors and actresses write everything down about the way their character walked and talked and eats, etc. down to what kind of dog or pet they would have, or what kind of car. Or if they would be the type to have a pet. It’s a good exercise and many many serious actors use that in their craft. I always want to use wigs though. Because I don’t want my long hair cut that’s down to my hips and even longer. Now Wigs look very convincing when they are done right. A good wig master is a great asset too.
I can't stop crying watching this movie each and every character it was make so well specialist the letter and the end of the movie the girl say thank you for writing for him😥
That "bum's rush" bit is definitely the way to handle trouble makers. We should never have stopped doing things that way. It made life so much simpler.
True, the "bum's rush" is still active today. I have a boxer friend who works part-time as a bouncer at a popular bar. They still get rowdies on busy weekends, and he initially tries to defuse the situation and calm things down. However, he has had to step up a few times when a drunken customer has gotten overly aggressive and belligerent, and he had to manhandle them right out of the club. They wisely chose not to return.
Yes mate that’s good mail , it still gets done that way in Oz .. sometimes when they deserve it without CCTV everywhere .. it’s the only thing they understand.
I didn't even notice that Tony's family came over just to watch over Dolores because the workers were "coloured folks". It shows how the wrong influence can shape a kind-hearted man, but also one kind-hearted man can influence others from saying racial epithets to accepting someone at Christmas dinner.
Crazy to think this is the true story About the actor who played Carmine In sopranos I never knew that before I saw this film and I am a huge sopranos fan Learn something new each day
For yous who don't know, Henry Hill in real life was just an errand boy who's been around some crews that's about it. The Goodfellas exaggerated some events to make it a movie, not for nothing, it's a great movie.
I love copacabana, the restaurant itself had been a great symbol for Italian pride in New York. In every great Italian mafia movie, there's copacabana. Like Goodfellas, don't worry, he's alright, he's one of us.
Would be amazing if Viggo portrayed Carmine Lupertazzi in the upcoming Sopranos prequel. How awesome would that be! Viggo portraying a younger version of a character that Tony Lip played
Viggo Mortensen was the best choice for the role of Tony Lip. Not only is he a versatile actor, he’s a polyglot with Italian being one of his languages that he learned.
I hear all these Aragorn references, but does anyone remember that in "The Prophecy " Viggo played the Devil himself? And did a chilling job of it as well!
These opening scenes made me think of John Gregory Dunne's fiction or John O'Hara's. Viggo Mortensen is a character who will change and develop as all dynamic characters in fiction change with their experience of the unforgiving world.
He went from throwing away two glasses that black men drank out of in the beginning of the movie, to inviting a black man over to his home for Christmas dinner by the end of the movie.

They weren't lifelong friends
Eight minutes and it establishes Tony as mostly uneducated and probably not the brightest man, but with a shrewd, hard streak in him. Such fantastic character development.
That's not hard to do with 8 minutes, if you think that's some amazing achievement than I'm worried

It was probably business as usual. That's why they had Tony Lip on payroll.
@@VonLewisOfficial Ayyyyyye! It’s the guy! It’s Bobby Rydell!
Just realized that Tony goes extra hard when he's beating up the drunk, so that when he returns the hat, he has some blood on his shirt to back up his story.
Tony looks down at his shirt "Uh...yeah. Yeah, thats exactly why i did it. For the authenticity."
good observation. 👍👍
He also flashes his bruised knuckle, when he accepts the tip!
Well his father did tell him to do everything 100%
Tony is manipulative.
Viggo Mortenson is the greatest actor of our generation, he got credited with this film's win, he deserves it for Eastern Promises.

Viggo Mortensen was the best choice for the role of Tony Lip. Not only is he a versatile actor, he’s a polyglot with Italian being one of his languages that he learned.
Damn, thats what happened to Velma after moving on from Shaggy?
She wanted some Italian sausage if you know what I mean.
Velma is a nice little trophy wife for Tony Lip!
one of my BEST BEST BEST MOVIE ever
i am 20 and i have watched hundereds of movies but this MOVIE is among the TOP first
I hear all these Aragorn references, but does anyone remember that in "The Prophecy " Viggo played the Devil himself? And did a chilling job of it as well!
I’ll have to check that out now!
The garbage can over the hydrant is such a move.
These opening scenes made me think of John Gregory Dunne's fiction or John O'Hara's.
Viggo Mortensen is a character who will change and develop as all dynamic characters in fiction change with their experience of the unforgiving world.
an amazing movie starts with a spell-bounding opening act........ I was sold after 5 min !!!

This is the life story of the actor who played Carmine Lupertazzi in The Sopranos.
Imagine back in the day just sitting around putting back whiskey, jamming to the band.
Captured the era’s atmosphere and attitudes.
