We all love mama Scorsese
In the movie "Taxi Driver" she played the mother of "Iris" Jodie Fosters character shown in the end of the movie.
@@m.e.d.7997 she played a lot of roles in his films. And it's wonderful
@@m.e.d.7997 and De Niro's mother in KIng of Comedy yelling at him in the basement from upstairs
@@m.e.d.7997 also she played a part of an old lady on Mean Streets
Yes we do may she rest in peace
"She loves her son unequivocally"
You can feel his pain there...
or is it love?
Imagine her pain when she found out her son is dead. It probably killed her.
Nop
Nice college word
..lol..
Very true comment you made about that scene
But in Italian, it’s much nicer!!!
He looks exactly like his mother. May she RIP. Amazing personality.
No, Martin looks like his father, but the way he talks, he gets that from his mother.
He looks like a bit of both, definitely more like his mother
When did this kind mama pass? 11.27.20?
If you hear them laugh, their laugh is identical.

You can literally see Scorsese's brain processing thoughts faster than the average human as he weaves through his comments.
except his mother's brain
That is a REAL NYer...a mile ahead everyone in the thought process.
I think it's because he may still be doing blow! 🤣
1:21 - I like that painting. One dog goes one way and the other dog goes the other way.
One dog looks east, the other dog looks west, so what?
And this guy's saying, "Whaddya want from me?"
So what?
I've got one on order
Looks like somebody we know...
RIP and long live Catherine Scorsese (April 16, 1912 - January 6, 1997), aged 84
You will always be remembered as a legend.
Love Mama Scorsese she's a symbol of all good mom's. May she rest well in heaven
"Yeah, your mom was cooking food for Joe Pesci's character, Bob Deniro, and I think someone else?" Scorsese was very polite to not laugh at him or insult him. You shouldn't possess such ignorance when you are interviewing anybody - let alone a top-notch director about a masterpiece of his.
Ray is horribly underrated in that movie. While De Niro and Pesci are great, the film wouldn't have worked nearly as well without Liotta's terrific performance.
lkimmel95 He still forgot Liotta's name... or that he was even in the scene, apparently
Could it be because he didn't say a word in the scene? He may even have been poking fun at that very fact, as it was a prominent feature of the scene.
He does speak in the scene, but only in response to the fact that he's being so quiet
whats even worse is that the movie was centered and followed liotta as the protaganist....
"i think some 1 else"
oh it was no one just the fucking main character numb nuts.
Wow, his mom was such a natural--knocked it out of the park, especially considering this scene was improvised!!!! I honestly did think & feel sorry for her charter exactly wen her son was killed & I probably did soley because of this exact heartwarming scene. I don't have kids yet so maybe that's why I didn't think @ it in a broader sense as he explains, growing up where he did sometimes people "just never came home" & how at the end of the day everybody is somebody's son.
His mom was a natural
mind blown. i totally did not know that was scorsese's mom. even cooler that the scene was improv.
This was the secret for the entire movie, actually...the improv.
She's got a great scene in Casino, too!
His dad was in it too twice. First as the guy cooking in prison using the razor blade to finely cut the garlic and he was also one of the gambino's who wacked tommy desimone. I think he was the trigger man who according to the real henry hill was actually jhon gotti himself.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie "Ehhhh oh, since when do you talk like that?"
Love your mothers people.
I like this one. One dog goes one way. The dog the other. And this guys says what ya want from me?
Catherine Scorsese deserved the Honorary Lifetime Achievement Award at the Oscars.
"Bob is playing an Irish guy. Give him some potatoes and eggs with ketchup." 🤣
Just watched his mom on documentary - Italian Americans. His mother was such a character. What a wonderful person she must have been. So warming and lovely. That explains her son. Wonderful family.
I've seen this movie, like, 40 times.
But now that I'm learning these new tidbits about the movie (like never noticing the Copacabana scene was a single steadicam shot) or THIS scene was improvised.... Just amazing. Whole new appreciation.
So cool to know that the scene being discussed was almost entirely improvised. What a great piece of information.
His mother is one of tge funniest people in movies. A true sweetheart but strong and critical. Great!
What a lovely scene that was in what was otherwise a violent circumstance. Mama Scorsese brought a lot of heart in that scene.
I could listen to Scorsese talk all day
She's everyone Italian's grandma or mom...I watch this scene whenever I miss my grandma ❤️
I don't know if Mr. Scorsese is like this in person, but it is such an experience to watch him and listen to him... when that man is gone, an entire era of world filmmaking will be gone with him...
Amazing. Put your mother in a scene with very little information and 3 amazing actors and let it roll. Inspired directing.
my neighbor rosina drego R.I.P. she took care of us. She would always look out for us.
GoodFellas is my favorite film of all time and I truly do think this scene is the finest ever filmed. The fact it was all improvised aside from one line of dialogue is staggering and just goes to show how incredible all of these actors were. Remarkable filmmaking, truly. Mama Scorsese will be greatly missed.
thank you martin for goodfellas please make another great mafia movie you genius
You got your wish
She was a beautiful soul. May she RIP.
holy shit majority of that was improv?
the deer hoof?
looks like some1 we know?
the italian cheating wife joke?
wow...
Not the someone we know part
One of my very favorite scenes in the movie is where the mother appears with the three of them. Never tire of watching that scene.
Love ya martin typical irish/italian till death!!typical irish/italian sons our sons are saints 😂, they are boys until death 😂😂😂😂 and your mother is so homeworking feeding her sons like my irish grandmothers, love u martin and your family x cant wait for the irish man film, thanks for making such amazing films, ps goodfellas is my fave film ever, and i painted that picture of billy batts 😂😋😝 !!
Of course a mother loves her son even if he is the worse person in the world. A mother will always love you.
Amazing how that was all improvised and they were great lines! And so natural believable.
RIP mama u can tell Marty misses his mom when the guy brought it up his face
one of the greatest movie scenes ever
Yes, Martins mom Catherine was a natural as an actress. In Goodfellas she reminded me so much of several Italian women i knew growing up. May you rest in peace Catherine Scorcese.
I love this interview so much.
Love his mother RIP...what a fabulous woman!!!
Mother Scorsese is great. Loved her on Letterman as well!
Whole interview please!!
I love that scene - I always look for his mom and dad in all his films and i am happy when they appear
Marty give your Mom a raise, she did a wonderful job. Was that your Father in the prison scene cooking Sunday dinner with Paul Sorvino? He adds too many onions to the sauce, one is enough.
And one more thing. God rest her soul....may she rest in peace.
That scene was improvised .. mind blown so natural ....ray was not on pesci and deniros level that is why he eas quiet
Yes... But it looks to the viewer watching the movie that he is uneasy feeling and thinking about Billy Batts in the trunk been taken to be buried.
@@leonswan6733 I believe that is what was intended.
Wrong. Its a reflection of his character. While he is a no good gangtser, he isnt the cold blooded killer his 2 associates are who havent skipped a beat. He is visually shaken by the Billy Batts escalation and murder and the magnitude of wacking a made man. Meanwhile, Tommy and Jimmy are laughing, joking and eating away. Thats why the movie is a masterpiece. Every scene is fueling the story.
@@JimmyJam1125 I agree, Henry is more disturbed at the killing than the other two are, that is why Henry is more quiet, in this scene.
I wonder if they knew at the time that was going to be the most legendary scenes of the movie. The man in the painting was John Weaving & the picture first appeared in National Geographic in the late 70's.
Had no idea Nick Pileggi's mother painted the Two dogs picture. Cool piece of goodfellas history.
I've always wondered if that dinner scene was improvised as Scorsese mentioned. It was one of my favorite scenes.
Brilliant director one of the greatest of all time
You never know she could be texting or tweeting how great it is to see Scorsese talk.
Scorsese will always be my idol in filmmaking.
She was brilliant
queens!!
One of the best scenes in the movie. (She is also in Casino)
@kinksboss1 I coudn't agree more...! and the fact that it was almost completely improvised makes it all the more special
1:26 Damn... I thought he wrote that, i'm Super impressed
His genius is letting the actors act
Improvasation usually works with great actors and who've experienced real life. That's why the scene worked 😎👍
Is there anywhere we can watch the full version??? Does anyone know???
Scorsese not telling one of the actors about the plot and just to play the scene for it’s reality.
Thinking like that is why he’s the best American director today.
You should watch that scene if you haven't already. It's got one dog going one way and the other dog going the other way.
lol
You can see where he gets the good looks (eyebrows) from LOL
Jim Jarmusch!
Ray "And someone else" Liotta lmao
RIP Mama Scorcese
Dude has mad skills
His movies made my life literally
I was a boxer
I was a gangster
I even was a taxi driver.(uber)
He molded my future actions In my
life just by watching his mind on screen
This guy is a genius
Sweet
She was also in Moonstruck.
Woah that was improvised.
💟💟💟💟💟
Astoria baby!!
It is my favourite scene in any movie, so endearing......even tho there's a body in the trunk lol
why doesn't YT tell you when a video was shot anymore?
Best scene in the movie by far
The old man in the painting looks like Billy Batts in the trunk, ya he does a little lol
exactly like my Italian American momma
Jim Jarmusch looks like he stuck a fork into an outlet then put his glasses on and walked out on stage lol.
Awww, I did not know that was his mom.
Sure I love this movie, but for this scene I have most special feeling to than the whole movie, because I think she looks my grandmother and my lovely grandmom is not italian and neither her family, but they're similar some how, I don't know.
Honestly his mom literally stole that scene. However she was with the actors of caliber like Pesci, Deniro and liotta but for me that scene wholley belongs to Mrs. Scorcese.
If I made movies I'd stick whoever I wanted in there too.
I swear to god, Goodfellas is the single greatest movie, I've ever seen. Which is not saying much, cause I've not seen too many movies to be honest.
Basque moms are exactly like those Italian mothers.
If you love Goodfellas...
Check out our parody of the "Funny How?" scene from Goodfellas.

Please share it with any Scorsese & Goodfellas fans you know or just a friend.
Is that the guy from sling blade?
She is a legend 😂😂😂😂
Dont king of comedy she was in that 2 Bob in cellar her up stairs roaing
She was in Casino too lol
And mean streets. Loved her in casino... Getting all upset when her son kept using foul language.
She was in a short part In the Godfather part 3
@@leonswan6733 yes.
Hasn't she had some kind of small role in every Martin Scorsese movie?
Yeah, French fries
so THAT'S what it's like to have a mom. cool.
All this time i thought it was martin Scorsese dressed as a women in good fellas 😂. They look so similar
Scorsese is the Italian Woody Allen
OR Woody Allen is the Jewish Martin Scorsese
What've you got against Scorsese?
Imagine your life without Goodfellas
nah, it exists! Your life is good
Vinny was played by scorcesses father as well
Marty look like his mother.
I reckon I’ll have me some of the big ‘uns
How does this guy have no idea what goes on in the movie. How did he get the job interviewing martin?
You do know who that interviewer is right? He's an acclaimed film director
Did jim see the movie? Jeez
Is the interviewer the same guy in the movies Smoke and Blue in the Face?
The interviewer is Jim Jarmush, the director of Mystery Train, Ghost Dog, Coffee & Cigarettes and Broken Flowers
@@richfictionfighter
Cool. Thank you. It is him.
That interviewer looks like he's been in a wind tunnel. Someone get him a comb.
This is real
Did Marty ever tell youse about my paintings??
