Hah, I thought so. You saved me from googling. Classic movie, 1972 Mean Streets where I first heard the word "Mook" and have been using it since. Keitel was the star, Deniro was just starting. The following year Deniro was in Taxi Driver and Harvey Keitel was basically a nobody in that movie.
Yep. But I’ll bet everything I own that calling a man like that, in a place like that, “a mook,”which is prison for homosexual btw, would result in a beating
Robert De Niro and Harvey Keitel's character's watching The Searchers in the movie theater in Mean Streets is a nice tip of the hat from Martin Scorsese to John Ford(one of his biggest directorial influences). Both of them are now legendary filmmakers.
Like the part with the guy playing pool and acting like that nothing is wrong. Also, Martin Scorsese has a unique genius when comes using music in his films to fit scenes and mood, and it dose not come of as a gimmick unlike a lot of filmmakers.
People Freak when I tell them This is my #1 Scorsese film. What!? What about Goodfellas??? AY! Tell the Goodfellas to Bring their Shine Box they wanna complain.
I have witnessed a lot of real life bar fights and this one was actually the most realistic in a movie...right up until the cops showed up out of nowhere. The police NEVER show up until after the fight is long over.
@@CutsCity413 Obviously you have never witnessed any real fights because they all look just as chaotic and unskilled as these guys did. FYI, I spent 4 years as a bouncer in a large bar and all technique goes out the window in a bar fight even if the participants know martial arts. Every Hollywood movie I have ever seen with a bar fight is nothing but ridiculously unrealistic choreography.
@@CaneFu I don't get into fights or nothing but I agree. When I see guys fighting almost always they're wildly swinging their fists like that. Guys with a lot of training might be different but they're the exception. Also a lot of fights end up on the ground if the first punches don't knock anyone out.
"Davis, how 'bout I give you some car fare". "Ok" "Took you long enough, where you going?" "Jersey" he gives him money then "Philadelphia" Only Scorsese. If you remember this movie, Scorsese is the one that shot Johnny Boy (Deniro) in this movie in a cameo.

@@Theimperialone-o2g Mean Streets was 1972, I have no disagreement about Joe Gallo, I only made mention that they did this also in Donnie Brasco based on the true story of FBI agent Joe Pistone infiltrating the mob back in 1976

For Raging Bull he did a lot of boxing training with La Motta and reached a fairly good standard. You sound bitter, did he turn down a script you sent him?
I've seen this movie twice and the second time was just to see what I missed because of all the praise it seemed to be getting. I wasn't impressed by anything in this movie. I'll take Goodfellas over this every time. It doesn't even make my top five of Scorcese movies.

This must have been around the time that Richie took the jacket off the toughest guy in Essex County.

Love the comments ❤

Tony’s cherished gift.
IT’S THE JAAAAAACKEEEEEEEEEET!!!!
Gave it to some polack maid
and a very young Richie Aprile
😂
Still had those Manson lamps
Harvey Keitels acting is so good when he gets hit on the table at the beginning of the fight
One of the funniest fight choreography I ever saw in cinema history lol! 😆
Love this film. Harvey Keitel, Robert De Niro, and the rest of the cast are great
A brawl with no resulting blood, bruises, scratches, or ripped clothing…
Yep. But I’ll bet everything I own that calling a man like that, in a place like that, “a mook,”which is prison for homosexual btw, would result in a beating
Scorcese got a lot better at violen ce in his films.
To be fair not every fight ends up in shredded clothes and gallons of blood pouring out.
No budget.

That’s absolutely the reason. He could’ve at least messed their hair up a little bit.
Wearing the jacketttttt!

If you remember, Scorsese's mother was in this one too.

Same, bro. Same.
This is Scorsese’s best film. His most authentic one.
I love how Jimmy immediately jumps on him after he punched his friend 😂 Also DeNiro did such a good job at making this fight scene look real
Say never, hes a shopping cart, from here on out...
I thought the fight scene in this was hilarious!😂

Even Martie's movie cameos were scary in Mean Streets and Taxi Driver; must've been due to "practicing" all those lines.
Watching this "fight" is like watching a WWF wrestling show. Watching Hulk Hogan ripping his shirt made of toilet paper. 😂

Only Scorsese.

The thing I like about this movie is it shows Robert De Niro exactly what he is in real life. He is an Idiot.

He’s still giving the Manson Lamps to people
Hey, it's Richie April before he did 20 years in the... Oh, wrong guy.
@7:40 I counted 10 “heys”😂😂😂😂
500th like❤ WHAT A FILM!!❤
You can’t call me a mook. “I can’t?” 💥
"A mook, what's a mook"
Mooky how?
I love the Beatles haircut that Robert DeNero is wearing. 😂
David Proval would have been the perfect Sonny Corleone instead of James Caan.
Even back then Richie was never able to sell it. But he's got a lot of moxie for his size.
At 8:03 I didn’t know that they said “ douchebag “ back then
They got that lion in the basement idea from crazy joe gallo
I also saw that in Donnie Brasco.
@Pbadome1 donnie Brasco came out in 97 mean streets is a 70s or early eighties flick if I'm not mistaken... Trust me they lifted this from crazy joe

That car, beautiful!
2:41 I’d love to know what line got edited out there. You can see Deniros mouth move but no audio.
Among Scorsese’s 4 best films. It will stand the test of time.
The guy calls him a mook, asks him what's a mook, then they attack him before they find out what a mook is. Maybe mook is good, he doesn't know...
😂😂😂
A remarkably gentle, almost affectionate, battle.
And over 50 years later nobody knows what a mook is.
The word "mook" is slang for a person who is foolish, insignificant, or contemptible
Not a made guy
They fought in every corner of the bar!
😂 a fight that lasted 3 minutes and no one's bleeding yet 🤷
movie was so authentic.
Richie Aprille, what's a mook?
Yourrrrr flexinnnnnn 😅

Before the Manson lamps.
One of my favorites "nice streets"
I could watch Bob get wailed on all day.
Did you notice he's the same punk now?
Why? Have fasc ists consumed your brain entirely?
Most Funniest Fight Scene In A Movie 🎬 😅
Good actors are young there
One of the classics when deniro was still liked
What I really like about Marty’s gangster movies is them golden oldies 1:18
Phil Leotardo was in year 4 in the Can when this went down if Im not mistaken .
Literally the polar opposite of the coogan's bluff pool hall fight
My old man grew up in North beach in the 40s, he said this is just how those idiots act.
WTF is going on between 3:48 & 4:05 ???? LOL!!
He's running for his life.
Keitel must have been wearing 4 inch platform shoes
Some Trump maga cult supporters are crying in the comments about De Niro because he hates their God. Robert De Niro is a legend who will live on forever through his films and you guys are nobodies 😅
TDS.
they prefer fat orange whiners
Nobody seems to realise that the best weapon in a poolroom bar fight is pool balls.
Coogan's Bluff
Big fan of Robert de Niro.
Big fan of Martin.
But still I haven't seen mean streets.
Because it sux
@@theupsndowns8161this movie doesn’t suck. Your taste in movies is probably garbage, let me guess, you like marvel movies? 😂 🤡
Missing out on
Anybody see Richie?😂
I'll be back every Saturday partner
No worries. Not a single drop of blood was lost....
Johnny Boy 👦: Hang On!
The music didnt go with the scene man....😂
Never saw a worse movie in my life.
0.32 wtf was he trying to hit?..
Yr the definition of a mook
3:05
Why did it look more like attempted grape
Acting is kind of stiff to me. The music doesn't gel with the action. this is a practice run up to Goodfellas.
But more realistic
It’s much better than Goodfellas.
They all need a lesson at trip and fawll skool………..heheheheheh
8:57 it's the jacket! Or am i too
late to say that
No one got laid after showing that fight scene to their girlfriend's hahaha Jesus wimpy fight
What’s a Mook?
Among the worst fight scenes ever put to film with real actors in it. What a horrifying sequence of stupidity.
What is a mouk anyway?
I always thought that Harvey keitel was,is over looked..I would love to see him on a film, with Al
13.6 ? He hit 12 seconds before he even leaned……fabulous 100m I don’t care what his time was.
I OWE EVERY BODDEEE MONEEEE
The Jacketttttttt
Not so well known classic movie.
Pineapples are all mooks
Be honest, the acting here was awful 😖
He's a mook😊
YO there’s Joe black I owe him 10 dollars
Its always a pleasure to see the fake tough guy Deniro acting like hes the real thing.
Like any actor.
You know this is a movie right?
@@nerfgunner2327 It's funny because he acts like he's tough in real life. Even as an old rickety man. He could get knocked over with a feather.
For Raging Bull he did a lot of boxing training with La Motta and reached a fairly good standard. You sound bitter, did he turn down a script you sent him?
@@melvert33 Oh Mel. You just don't get it. Bless your heart brother.
What an unrealistic fight. Not a scratch on any of them. smh
K cops would have come in swinging..and everyone would have had a headache
sucks tryin to fight in a suit, i know
What’s a mook
One of the worst fight scenes I’ve ever seen.
❤
I've seen better fights in the school yard 😂
Lame fight...
Lots of pushing and shoving. The entire scene is a badly executed joke. Anemic. Didn't St. Scorcese learn any thing from fellow paisano Sergio Leone?
I've seen this movie twice and the second time was just to see what I missed because of all the praise it seemed to be getting. I wasn't impressed by anything in this movie. I'll take Goodfellas over this every time. It doesn't even make my top five of Scorcese movies.
Because you don't understand it. It's for a very niche audience and captures a way of life that most can’t comprehend.
@@Duosiciliano Way of life? You mean street life, hoodlum, gangster, etc... still not Scorcese's best.

Pretty weak👎
Rubbish film.
What kind of car is that in the beginning? It's bad ass
I wonder if the pool table fight started with Coogens Bluff[Clint E} or this movie,have to check the dates.
Funny fight
