- Al Capone (Anthony Lapaglia) talks with John Rooney (Paul Newman), Frank Nitti (Stanley Tucci) and Harlen Maguire (Jude Law) about Michael Sullivan (Tom Hanks). Deleted scene from the DVD bonus.
I'm glad they kept Capone in the dark. His influence and power is all you need to see. You know the name, you don't need to see the man.
This may seem like an insane comparison but by never seeing him he’s like the Emperor in A New Hope. You don’t need to see him because the movie assures you just how menacing he is.
But for some foreign non-American audiences who might not know the name "Al Capone," this scene would have served a great purpose.
Not showing Al Capone gave him a menacing projection of omnipotence that would have lost if they included this scene in the movie.
It was a good decision to cut this scene. The movie works better by simply knowing that Capone is the boss and not having seen nor heard from him.
I agreed with your opinion, because this actor had not any feature of Capone sure.
You don't need to be a MAGA asshole either now.
Tomasina Covell you little antifa voting for mayor Pete, you deserve each other.MAGA
@randy palla the making of the mob documentary actor did good.
The graphic novels make it quite clear that Nitti works for Capone. But I agree, this scene was better cut.
Lol hes playing Al Pacino
I see the truth in that.
Lmao
Ahahahaha so true. Definitely doesn’t resemble Capone in any way
although it's interesting I'm also glad it was cut. this was a little to comical for the mood of the film. Michael Weaselboy is right. Capone is better in this film as an unseen force:)
I think the problem with this scene is it takes too much away from Rooney. It makes him look weaker and more in thrall to Capone and Chicago than appears in the final cut.
Groby Community College Media .... It takes away from the hit man too
Why can't people realize that this scene was meant to be a filler..??
How did the Hit-Man know that Tom Hanks would show up at the accountant's hotel..??
That was the proposal given to Capone, which is why the accountant was used as bait to catch up to Tom Hanks...
Good point. And, really, if you're going to have Capone in the movie, he surely needs more than one scene, but that, as you say, would make Rooney seem less powerful. I do, however, feel for the actor playing Capone here. You think you're in the film--and then you're not.
@@TheGimpPimp1 What? We DON'T know why the hit man showed up at the accountant's hotel--it's not explained in the movie--and so this scene would have explained it, which would have made it the opposite of filler, in my view.
The problem is this man playing Capone is no where near as good as rest of the cast.
Way to much hair to be Capone.
too skinny
You are thinking of his trial photos. He had more hair and was slimmer in his earlier days.
One of the best deleted scenes in cinema history.
Aussie mate
You gotta be joking.
Thank goodness they cut this scene.
good call cutting this scene; it would've destroyed the tension they built between Michael and Rooney which was really the heart of the film
@ 0:40 Paul Newman's face is like "Are you fucking kidding me? Who casted this guy? The editor better cut this shite of a performance"
Krisb BeatS Nah the performance was fine. It just didn't fit. It made the movie about Capone when he really has little to do with it.
+TV6469 Exactly!
Thank God not included in the final cut.
I would never have expected such a performance of Jude Law in this movie! his facial expressions, his movement, absolutely amazing work, Mr Law :)
I agree. Notice how GENTLY this master assassin says to Big Al: "There's no 'look,' Mr. Capone." He doesn't want to come across as a wimp or afraid but he knows better than to take a chance pissing-off Al Capone (especially as he's rather p-o'd already).
Seriously, J. Law needs to play more villains. He's surprisingly good at it.
JamesOhGoodie he makes King Arthur legend of the sword not bad at all. He’s a great villain.
He's never given a subpar performance in his career.
Thanks for uploading this scene. I just read at wikipedia that the movie had a deleted scene with Al Capone so I got eager to watch it. I'm all satisfied now.
It doesn't make much sense for Jude Law's character to be in this scene. I mean, why would a low-level henchman be having discussions with the big bosses? They were right to cut this scene.
he's far from low level henchman tho, he's introduced as a mercenary better than anyone.
Good point..
Maguire was not a two-bit henchman. He was a skilled hitman for hire. He was also there because Capone wanted to express his displease with his failure to kill Sullivan. I agree it was appropriate to cut the scene but not for the reason you said.
I mean, I like Lapaglia, but who cast him for this? Looks nothing like Capone. Very strange.
I agreed completely. Who does not know how was Capone may done this no sense choice only.
Interesting factoid:
Lapaglia played the part of Frank Nitti as well in a 1988 film. Really good job.
He actually looks like a younger Capone before his trial.
Thumbs up if you thought that if was Al Pacino yelling at the start of the video
What's almost always forgotten about Capone is how young he was when he came to power. When he took over from Torrio in 1925 he was only 25 years old and he had already been with Torrio for about 7 years even by then. He should be about 31 in this movie. Not as old as he is played here or certainly the older guy that DeNiro played him as in The Untouchables. But even at his peak he was never half as powerful as the New York bosses. They mostly considered him a publicity seeking 'gavone'.
NYC bosses probably thinking : " They make anybody and everybody over there in Chi-Town. And the way that they do it, it's all f#cked up. Guys don't get their finger pricked. There's no sword and gun on the table..."
@@famouswarrior327 Funny how Chicago went on to become more powerful than the Five Families.
@@antoinesilva1527 From my view the Chicago Outfit reached it's peak when Sam Giancana was the Boss
@@younginsane90 It’s probably at its golden years between Accardo (1947 - 1957) and “Milwaukee Phil” Alderisio (1967 - 1971). They were certainly the most profitable and powerful in the Giancana Era. In the 70s Feds began to crack down on OC, and it’s all over.
Not true. New York can't touch the outfit.
Very glad this was cut. It feels at odds with the tone and dynamics of the rest of the movie.
100%. I couldn't agree more iangrant. The mere mention of Capone in the movie was enough.
The Boardwalk Empire show is probably the best impression of Capone
Stephen Graham, right?
Your crazy. Guy looked nothing like him and he was 5’5 , Capone was 5’10
@@vyleche28 Capone was 5"8 and Stephen Graham murdered that role. It's not always about the likeness. Sometimes it's just about the Aura/Demeanour. And he embodied every inch of it in Boardwalk.
@@johnwayne-3701 no, Capone was 5’10 , and no he didn’t. He looked like a dude with a Napoleon complex, in real life nobody would take that shrimp seriously, he also looked like a clown that would’ve been wupped on easily. Capone in real life was a huge guy that was terrifying that was an actual *bouncer* , you cannot be 4 feet tall and be a bouncer. Dude was a terrible pick and completely , erroneously depicted Al Capone.
The Boardwalk Empire show is probably the worst impression of Capone,Stephen Graham don't look like italian.
Stanley Tucci was frank nitti? I didn't get that in the movie...
It's just that seeing him in the movie and in the untouchables, that confuses things...
cepomwa nitti barely spoke English. He was the enforcer.
@@NickC1966 Many people now think Nitti was just the front guy; Paul " the Waiter" Ricca was the real underboss/number 2 guy in Capone's Chicago Outfit.
It’s about to get worse:
Lapaglia played the part of Nitti as well, the 1988 biopic.
Too bad this scene was cut...He could have been known as an actor who played both Al Capone & Frank Niti which he did in the Frank Niti biopic...
yes mr law steals the show...
this also downsizes Jude Laws character making him seem less badass
Yup -- because being badass to or in front of Al Capone would not be a good idea. Note how politely Law says, "There's no LOOK, Mr. Capone."
yeah i agree with everyone its a good thing this was cut from the film
It's a fictional portrayal, for sure, but I like how it compliments Capone's blue collar ways in this scene.
Lapaglia sounded more like Pacino trying to do a cheap Capone.
He was played as having a cold in this scene. It is why he is so disheveled.
I think this is great but I'm glad they cut it because Al Capone worked better off-screen as just the collective embodiment of crime; also given how straight face the rest of the movie is I think I would've wound up rooting for this guy since he's the most relatable and charismatic of the stiffs, and that's including Tom Hank's character.
I think Capone is better as an unseen force in the movie and this scene just doesnt fit into the movie.
I like that Capone wasn't in the movie, but instead was simply considered to be so domineering and powerful that you didn't even need to see him in order to fear his name. Plus there's a reason Capone was able to stay out of prison for so long. The guy knew how to operate behind the scenes. So in cases like this, he would make sure never to be seen personally ordering the hits, he'd be secretly directing others to do in order to ensure they aren't connected to him. So it makes perfect sense not to see his involvement.
I couldn’t agree more. Capone almost becomes a caricature in this scene. Very rarely can someone pull off playing Capone. De Niro in Untouchables is the only one I like.
@@deniserossiter1059 One thing I hate about how Capone is depicted is that he's always depicted as old. I don't think I've ever seen him being shown as under 40. The real Al Capone was in his 20s at the height of his power, and he was 33 when he went to prison.
It's like they can't depict him at the proper age because they don't know how to make a really young mafia boss seem intimidating.
This is the most NPC comment I've seen
Another deleted scene shows Michael and son being chased by Eliot Ness
i dont really know how capone talked or his mannerisms etc, but this is definitely not it lol
+stfu donny Only because it doesn't satisfy you with your expectations. What do you know about who he really was?
stfu donny thats because everytime you watch a mafia movie you wanna see cool. you wanna see someone like deniro. doesnt mean its realistic at all. deniro and pesci didnt play anyone but themselves.
You contradict yourself, man.
I always thought this film took place after Capone had gone away, during the brief time that Nitti was running things in Chicago.
At the end of the film, Nitti asks for Sullivan to reassure Al that if Conner is given up then everything is over.
Too hammy. Capone was better as an unseen force, this guy has no presence and doesn’t appear powerful at all. Glad it was cut
His performance reminds me of Colin Farrell as the Penguin.
Im so glad they cut this. Every time i see this guy, i think of So I Married An Ax Murderer. After DeNiros terrifying take on Capone, id rather he stay ambiguous in this movie.
Well just think of Bad Grandpa or Meet the Fockers then.
This goes against the tone of the movie completely. Glad they cut it.
Thank god this didn't make it in the final cut..
It was enough to portray Neddy it would be too much of a stretch to include Capone in this common hitman story opening the movie up to great criticism
It's too goofy the whole movie has a serious tone which I love but the scene just comes off as goofy like Capone's an idiot and he doesn't know how to talk to people and it just kills the whole tone of it
My favorite Tom Hanks movie, when less is more.
Why can't people realize that this scene was meant to be a filler..??
How did the Hit-Man know that Tom Hanks would show up at the accountant's hotel..??
That was the proposal given to Capone, which is why the accountant was used as bait to catch up to Tom Hanks...
This guy is a terrible Al Capone.
Pretty easy to see why they left this out.
This is so bad. This scene was right to be cut.
well im glad that was deleted
I finally see why this scene was taken out of the movie
LMAO, Jude Law like a boss.
Better without this scene..
It's better that we never see Capone. It makes him seem like a godlike figure, the man upstairs that people allude to
Glad this got deleted
Good choice to delete.. It's too long and not necessary to move the story forward.. I have to make the same choices all the time.. Awesome movie!!
The reason this scene was cut is that it makes Jude Laws murder of Sullivan at the end seem less personal. If he's been dispatched by Capone he will get the job done, even if Paul Newman was killed. Without it, it implies Newman hired Law, and thus, after his death, Law's continued pursuit is purely out of vengeance for his face. Makes it more interesting than just Capone getting payback. Granted, Tuccis cooperation implies that capone isn;t after him anymore- but that makes it even more confusing- capone would never let Sulivans crimes slide, even after newmans death.
Talk about confusing.
yup confusing lol
Nick so was it actually Capone that still sent him or did he do it out of vengeance? I didn’t see any evidence that Capone sent him after Newman’s death, it was just the assassin going after him still, it could have been out of vengeance
clarke griswold. I think its more about a contract killer's reputation taking a hit that one got away. Maguire(Jude Law) in his line of work had no choice but to finish the job whether he got paid or not!
Aris Tsihlis dude I fucking love you, get me a water
Glad it got deleted
Honestly would not have minded if they added the scene. For a deleted scene, the acting is still great
Aw man, such a shame. I agree this scene wasn't needed, but I'll never turn down LaPaglia. He was a great choice.
Ps. Yeah,it´s pretty bad but LaPaglia isn´t exactly given much room to make an impact...and still better then DeNiros horrendous caricature in The untouchables. Watch Phoenix with Ray Liotta and see how he can play creepy,slimy and evil,great job there.
The script made him a caricature, if DeNiro would've had a good script, he would've been the best Capone ever.
That movie had nothing to do with history, was all made up, just look at how Nitti was portrayed.
I'm still waiting for the definitive movie on Capone, one which captures the spirit of the time and the man..
@rathaunike Alfred Molina was supposed to play Capone but turned down the part due to scheduling conflicts w/ another film ... Molina's a better actor and probably would have done a better job. I agree, Capone is more menacing by not being seen, although if he had to put him in, maybe just a scene with just the back of his head as he sits at a desk would have sufficed.
Lapaglia copied and pasted his barry the blade muldano salted w/ a really shitty chicago accent lol
He says, "friggin" early on then says "fuckin"... like why the change? Just say fuckin all the time lol.
It's Simon, Daphne's drunken freeloading brother from Frasier!
Good acting but he’s maybe too clean cut imo. Eyes aren’t dark or sunken enough
Yeah its overacted and he sounds like he's trying to be Pacino. Good thing they kept it out.
"I got ears so big I'm an elephant".. hahaha Gotta use that one on the wife..
u know ur only getting mafia roles when ur playing frank nitti in a movie and play al capone in another.
This is probably the worst portrayal of AL Capone in history
We never hear Mcguire's proposal 🤭
Lmpaglia has zero buisness playing a gangster,..ESPECIALLY Al Caopne
And to add further interesting info, Capone is said to have dropped out of school at 14 years old after punching his teacher(female) in the face.
Not a good Capone impersonation. Glad it made the cut.
I personally think they could have left it, IF they had added 1-2 very short scenes of al being being frustrated and thinking about whether Connor is worth it. Jude Law actually looks too good in this scene.. The had him more ragged out with deteriorating makeup in his other scenes, and here he looks too pretty like his real self. I like the movie very much, and think it’s a top 20 soundtrack of all time in terms of atmosphere. I always wanted a more satisfying kill of Conner, however.
I disagree. It's better that Capone was simplly an ominous and ever-present evil lurking behind the scenes. Something that you couldn't see, but still had reason to fear. Kind of like Sauron in the lord of the rings movies. Plus there's a reason Capone was able to stay out of prison for so long. He knew how to keep himself publicly disconnected from his most serious crimes. So it makes sense we don't see him ordering the hits, but instead just see his underlings doing it, because that's how Capone operated.
As for the Connor kill, I like how it wasn't satisfying. I think that was deliberate on the part of the director. The point is that after all the atrocities Sullivan experienced, carried out, and witnessed, by the time he finally gets his revenge for them, it's really not a source of pleasure or satisfaction at all. It's just something that needed to be done, like doing your taxes. It shouldn't have been satisfying, because after everything Sullivan did and suffered through, nothing left in life for him was satisfying, nothing except his son.
This made the move that much better, to me it was one of the top 3 scenes. Why the fuck do they leave the best parts out.
Not a good Capone however he does play agood mobster but Capone he aint. Ive always thought Robert Costanza would have been a good Capone
I think George Constanza would have played a better Capone with Kramer as underboss and Jerry Seinfeld as consiglieri.
This is the worse Capone in film history
Sounds like Pacino in Devils Advocate
It was good they cut it out. It broke the rhythm.
This ia pure lead....deleted scene..thank goodness
Great movie, but I am yet to see a convincing looking capone, the closest being Stephen Graham.
Deadbeat Jeff De Neiro did the best Performance as Al Capone
+deadhead686 lol
no one knows how capone is cause theres almost no real capone footage
WORST CAPONE EVER SEEN. GOOD CUT
Yeah this should have been cut
This is(as far as I'm informed) exactly how Capone acted. And at this stage in his career, as the movie depicts, he was literally the most powerful single mob figure on this side of the pond. Mario Puzo writes fiction. These gangsters weren't college educated conservatoires. They were power grabbing street educated mafiosi.
Yea, good decision to cut this film. It goes against the mood of the entire film.
Good thing this scene was cut from the film because it was not believable. I always thought that gangland bosses do not communicate directly to hitmen / soldiers, they have layers of people to do that for them in order to insulate themselves from legal complications.
@hammerogod Capone was actually a real funny stand up guy, he wasent the evil strict dickhead guy most movies played him out to be. I mean yea he was the boss he was brutal but besides his mob ways outside of his buisness Al Capone was actually a guy you could have a beer and joke around with, he was a people person, he really only hurt other mobsters...
Hmmm, how slim was Capone back then? Was there Prohibition in the film, can't remember to pin the year.
@Wargoat6 I know. When the video was first posted, they tagged Stanley Tucci's character as Ciaran. I was correcting the mistake.
Strange how nobody complain about Robert Denrio playing Capone, Who he look nothing alike...But everybody bitches about this guy...
Deniro's Capone sucked shit.
@JP48988 thats because al capone was the boss.. he'd make alot of badass people look less badass..
Great scene! What a treat to see. This film is fantastic & 1 of my all time favourites. I actually wish they'd put this scene in the movie.
@PitBullRa19h666 its nice when you meet someone who knew him, you get a real insight. ...
This guy is a good actor he's just been miscast.
Thank god they took this out. What a clown.
this was shoot front of the green screen except that table.
Damn
That's amazing CGI for 2002
Did they seriously shoot this scene?
Every film that has ever been made has stuff that is cut out of the final print for one reason or another.
@coupycoupon maybe not during capone's time but later when the chicago outfit started skimming the casinos and stuff in vegas during the 60's and 70's they were more powerful than all the 5 families of new york put together
No they weren't. The outfit was never as powerful as the New York syndicate. Lucky Luciano had more control of Vegas than the Chicago outfit in Capones day and the Gambinos in the 60's and 70's
Say hello to my little friend!
He played Niti back in the day....He was great in that film...
Umm....Ciaran Hinds is NOT in this scene. Stanley Tucci IS.
Why the hell did not they keep it in the orignal move? It is better than most of the stuff there, and the movie itself was still pretty good! But this scene is one class higher. You know why? It is LIVELY. The movie was rather stiff and depressing. It would look much better with this scene.
Because this scene makes Mr. Rooney look weak and submissive. In the final cut, we only know about Al Capone from the last phone call between Sullivan and Nitti, and yet with just that we know he's in command. Without this scene, Mr. Rooney and Frank Nitti look very powerful. With it, not that much. So I think that's the main reason why it didn't make the cut.
@EGlVM Cuz his character got offed early in the movie!
