In my former life, I sat down with John Gotti in a negotiation and won. Everything I learned about negotiations, I learned during sit downs and this particular scene in the movie Gotti really showed how a real Cosa Nostra sit down is done. How would you do in a high stakes mafia negotiation?
Was Gotti the most authentic Mob Movie ever made??

The scene where Dellacroce walks into the bar and tells Gotti just how close he came to getting killed was my favorite in the whole film. The look on Assante's face...it was like you could see that realization pass over him when he finally realized that he WASN'T untouchable.
Loved that scene too. How all 3 walked in fearlessly. Everyone else left. Loved it.
With gotti you can see fear in his eyes
Especially when Dellacroce tells him that if Don Carlo had given the order for Gotti to be whacked, he would’ve carried out his bosses orders. Even as hard as he thought for him, if the boss had said, no, he still would have followed procedure. It just shows how even your best friends are willing to turn on you at a moments notice. Really trying to drive in the point. If only he had listened.
Even more haunting, as much as Neil loved John, when he said “and you would go” with a smirk. The Life was more important than anything
"The boss is the fckn boss!"
You’re right about one thing, Gotti with Armand Assante is one of the best mob movies ever made.
So much better than the newer one with Travolta. Like night & day
He is right for many things lol
I've seen the film several times, it's really great, and I've only just noticed that Joe Piney is played by the same guy who played Johnny Ola.
Sammy the Bull said that movie is nonsense.
@@Ruggid111 I liked the movie too, i would say its up there with Goodfellas and a little above Casino.
(I liked the first half of Casino, however my biggest problem with it is the second part, after he fires the kid whose uncle is a high ranking sheriff or something, the movies phasing takes a steep dive and DeNiro´s character goes from hero to zero in no time at all.
Here i liked Goodfellas better as the decline where more gradual)
I loved the quote where Neil told Gotti got a pass and Neil says "But if Don Carlo had said, you gotta go. I would have come here today with these two zips...and you would go..." and the acting was just so real and truly amazing. Truly well done. I think it shows having influence is a wonderful negotiation tactic. Neil showed respect to the Boss and because he shows respect and put his own reputation on the line, he got Gotti the pass. Which is a huge victory turn around for a uphill battle.
Most chillin part of the movie… Forgot about it
Such an underrated performance from him and all in this movie and truly not recognized nearly as much as it should. For me the favorite mob movie.
@@smacksumbody And just think about this, That movie portrayed Mr Neil as being soft compared to how he really was. I heard this from very credible people 1st hand at a family reunion years ago.
BRAVO!!!!!!
I love that you see Gotti's face and he looks absolutely petrified, showing he completely believes his life would end by his father figure's hand if it was decided by on high. Made Neil's presence completely terrifying.
Gotti is so underrated. Like you never see it on peoples list of best mob movies. I consider in up there with casino and goodfellas.
I think it's the best mob movie period!
I caught it on TH-cam notice it had great name actors and it was a great movie
That along with Bronx Tale. Chazz Palminteri killed it in that role
I don't get what yall see. It was okay! The air doesn't look like Gotti and the guy that plays Sammy doesn't look like Sammy at all! At least Assante behaved like Gotti to a T. I wish they had showed more of the way they earned money. Show us the backhand deals etc.
"if Don Carlo had said you'd go, I'd come here today with this two zips, and you'd go." that line was so good
*Zips
Agreed, it's all he had to say.
Definitely the best line in the movie!! Thanks for posting this

Fantastic video Mr. Franzese! Negotiating has never been my forte, but after listening and really sponging up your advice on life really does come in handy. Especially when you stated in your simulation to check your ego and loading up both barrels. Looking forward to your deep discussions in the the future. Thank you for all that you do Mr. Franzese, and God bless.
Ah many many thanks Mr Franzese. I think it was one of your videos a few months back where I learned a gem from you. You said so to speak in a situation where there may be a group negotiating, brain storming etc. Let everyone have their say. Really listen.. Always be the last one to say anything, it depends, it may be best not to speak at all. To keep one's counsel. Not to react. Never ever say a bad word against anyone even if you feel bad about them. That really stood out to me. I will never forget it. Again thank you. I have learned so much in these last few months since I've been here. Have a great week ahead. God's blessings and favour to you and your family ❤️
I could listen to you explain La Cosa Nostra life all day..Thank you Mr. Franzese
as always eloquent and a breath of fresh air ..
Michael take care of yourself and your loved ones, greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰 🙏
Love how Neil put John in his place after that critical sit-down.
"We've been negotiating all night."
"Negotiating what?"
"Your f'ing life!!"
"For taking out a f'ing cokehead!?"
"BE QUIET!!"
That was true! When the Consigliere said “if it were my call Gotti would go,” you knew it got very close. And Gotti WAS wrong.
Best scene of the movie.!!!!.everything I read says Neil was a scary motherf####r!! I got nervous during that scene! Lol
8:00 “HOoo.. Unca June!”
Finally became.. and STAYED Boss.
I have watched the HBO version of Gotti over 100 times. It never gets old. It was brilliant and from everything I have heard it's very accurate.
If "Gotti" was the only movie Armand Assante ever made he would have accomplished his career as an actor, in spades. He could have given lessons to John Gotti on how to BE John Gotti!
Thank you for all the work you put into these videos. It is much appreciated!
Assante was great as Napoleon too. He's a great actor.
Every time Michael talks about this film I find myself watching it again straight after. 😊
Me too.
Where? I can't find it.
@@dirtymike4894 search TH-cam gotti movie. Watching it now 👍🏻
@@tiernandaly5622 hahaha Thank you. I am so stupid. I have like 5 streaming services. Every time Michael talks about this movie I look for it on those and can never find it. I can't believe I didn't think to just search on TH-cam.
haha Thank you for giving me the smack in the head I needed. It's appreciated.
I totally agree with you Michael especially the scene with Delicroce, approaching Gotti, after the Sit down with Don Carlo deciding on John's Life, the scene gave me the Chills knowing that it Really Happened and it shows the World that Some Killer's do have a Heart and a Conscious, lol because I'm from the Mean Streets of Washington DC but I've met a Few Conscious ones in my Life Time and Anthony Quinn's acting is like no other
Quinn is great in Mobstere as well. Another movie I loved about Luciano. He played Maseria
@@gporr7004 yes indeed 💪
@@gporr7004 completely agree.
@@gporr7004 I'm going to try to find that movie I only seen a little piece of it long time ago
This allegedly happened in the early 70s in real life gotti was not made yet he didn't get made until either 1975 or 76 I don't think this happened in real life if you're not made yet and you killing made guy you definitely sign ur death sentence
Great job brother! Keep up the great work! God bless 🙏🙏
Michael: I always prided myself as a skilled negotiator. At age 22, I became a claims adjuster handling mostly automobile accidents. I negotiated property damage and injury claims, including serious injuries and death claims with attorneys. But I gladly admit that your negotiations were on a higher level. I congratulate you on your skill to go from a criminal life to an honest life and still find financial success! God bless you! I wish you all the best!
Michael, this is my favorite movie as well. I can rewatch it anytime. Armand Assante, Anthony Quinn, and all the supporting cast were excellent. It was all done so perfectly, the time period in NYC, the music. And it didn't glamorize as much as it showed the treachery and in the end , no winners. 24 years later and this movie still holds up today. Great Video!
I’ve been a long time watcher… this is my first time commenting. I also love the gotti movie with armand as John Gotti… a true hidden gem. But one movie that nobody talks about and is a true Mafia classic is “The Valachi Papers” starring Charles Bronson. I would love if you did a mob movie monday on it. God bless.
Would you please elaborate abt the film? I'm hip to when Valachi was the first made guy to ever break Omerta, but beyond that, what was the film about???
I don't think they talked in English. Your not supposed to be italian for nothing.
@Kwezi Amezi Oh, I'm 40 yrs old, so no worries there. Thanks for the mention. I'll have to check it out!
Wow almost a million subs....well deserved!
Exactly, this is my second to Goodfellas movie so realistic in so many ways, keep it up Michael love the content.
Love your channel Michael
@@michaelfranzese your welcome
The best channel on TH-cam
Excellent Excellent Excellent! I love Gotti and this is my favorite movie on him, and one of my favorite mob movies. Great video on a sit down and I loved the interactive video, would love more of those. God bless you Michael!
Big fan Michael from Oahu in Hawaii I send my blessings and support thanks for all the hard work you guys do to make these vids and for always staying positive and preaching gods name you made me wanna get even more into Christ blessings from Hawaii man stay safe
Yes. I Watch this Movie years years ago. Till today i Watch the Film. So real. So Good. Love it
I'm soo excited for this one, also you are really close to hitting 800k. congrats and god bless you
Michael I've watched every movie Armand has done, it's on my wish list to meet him some day, yah right it would never happen , just wishing. But I agree his performance was excellent and I enjoyed the interview you did with him . Thankyou for all your inspiring words, God bless 🙏🇨🇮
Marc Lawrence who played Carlo Gambino was personal friends with Charlie Luciano. Whenever Lawrence visited Italy he would go see Lucky who just wanted to hear his New York accent and reminisce of his life there before he was imprisoned then deported.
Lawrence was the perfect casting to play Gambino IMHO. And Dominic “Uncle Junior” Chianese looks like Joe “Piney” Armone, Gambino’s consigliere if only he had worn the Coke bottle glasses Armone had to wear!
Excellent video and I loved the sit down simulator! Looking forward to more of those! Have a great week my friend! See you Wednesday!!
Great Pod. Thanks. God bless you
Yes, this movie I’ve seen so many times back in the 90’s, I could act it all out still today. I literally wore out my DVD copy I dubbed when it came out. Epic movie!
@@michaelfranzese Micheal, I put this movie up with the best of them. I don’t think it got enough praise. Thank you for bringing it out so much. GOD bless you, Sir!
Fun fact: Big Paul Castellano (who John Gotti had whacked to become boss) had a nephew named Richard S. Castellano. He played Clemenza in The Godfather.
Michael I am loving this idea and i think it should be a regular thing, but i have an idea for a interesting topic, could you do a video on the most powerful non made men, or associates that dealt with the mob? Or even a compilation on guys that were heavyweights without being made men?
I think Joe Watts would be a great example.
@@pereirafernando7413 i was thinking him and jimmy burke, i also wanted to know why jimmy burke did not get whacked for the billy bats thing
@@chrislaverick6413 If Billy Batts trusted him enough for Jimmy to run his rackets while he’s away, you know he’s the real deal. Not only that, he’s from another family even! Talk about respect. Probably too important to the Canarsie Crew and the Luccheses.
Hey Michael! Awesome video. I hope all is well. God Bless from The Bronx 👊🙏🇺🇸
I was trying to tell someone about the original Gotti film at work it’s soooo good.
Great content as usual. Thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to Friday's session....yaaayyyyy.
On another note, Mr. Franzese, did you hear about Mike Tyson's recent encounter with a gunman in a comedy club? Mike Tyson handled the situation like a champ. He seemed fearless based on what I read. Unbelievable.
These sit downs could have been life or death that must sharpen up you`re awareness. It priceless.
Hello from Manchester England Michael hope your doing well keep up the great content god bless
The scene also contrast to the scene when Gotti is boss and Sammy asks to whack Louie DiBono and Mickey DiBatt. Don Carlo listened to everybody and thought the issue through, whereas Gotti just said «clip em both if it makes you feel good!»
Shows the difference in leadership between the old-timers and the young turks.
Love Inner Circle Sit Downs with you ! A lot of great knowledge you have and wonderful friends in this group !
Have a wonderful week my friend !!!!
Good idea with the simulated sit-down. Keep the channel hot, keep the ideas coming.
This was good! Thanks for sharing, Don Franzese! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Love it Michael. Continue the Great work and God bless you!
God doesn’t bless anyone, he doesn’t exist 😂
You say God bless to a person who has stolen money and been involved in killing?? Just think of all the pain this guy has caused?? Where are your values?? Just think if all Americans lived just like him??
@@michaelfranzese I saw some guy on Reddit posted something interesting that could be refreshing by to your channel:
“However, I would really like to see a bit more in the way of slice of life stories. Not every video needs to be a big sit down or killing.
Tell us about what it was like going out to a nightclub as a high ranking gangster? What was it like to go dating with women? What was the day like as a Capo compared to a Soldier?
These things are more interesting to me because the Mafia is such a weird organisation, I wonder what it's like in the day to day.”
Would you consider these as contents? Just askin.
@@dbcooper692 stop whining
@@larrythekillerclown2633 Larry you are a clown. Like most Americans, you have no principles!!
This is my favorite scene from that movie. It was such a masterpiece…
One line i love is when Neil opened his argument by saying "You know me Don Carlo, I am a street guy, i can't talk."
sets up:
1. Castelano is not a street guy and is all fancy talk.
2. I ain't doing fancy talk, i am speaking from the heart.
Perfect for this sunny Monday afternoon.
sending my regards Mr. Michael , have a great week :))
Great show thanks 🙏 Mike
I watched this movie because you like it… You are RIGHT! One of the most underrated Movies of its time. This is one of my favorites.
Hey Mike very entertaining! Have a great day!!! Best sit down podcast!
Crazy how much of the montage behind Michael is the Soprano's rather than classic mob movies. Really says how much weight and reality that series has.
Michael I love this movie as much as u , top 3 mob films goodfellas, casino, Gotti “forgetaboutit “ great episode , for those out there who love mob films its free on TH-camt to watch in HD please watch this film, peace
Michael, have you seen Gangs of New York? If so, could you please review it as a mob movie Monday segment
Armand Assante was magnificent in Gotti, and it tell ya another thing, i prefer that movie over the Godfather movies.
"we need all the John Gottis we can get, but we can't survive without our rules, if it was my choice I'd revoke his right to soft drinks of choice."
That’s good 😅
Gotti disrespected the pizza parlor
Greetings Don Franzese. I'm a Bronx Native looking to be mentored by a successful New York City native. I admired you when you were in "the life" as a child growing up ( I'd watch you on the news, inteviews, court cases) and admire you more now being a man of faith. You're a New York City Living Legend. It would be an HONOR to be mentored by you.I also hope that your daughter is doing much better. God Bless you & your family.
I watch your content about 3 years, and it's so good learn with a made man
Great seeing this clip
Mr. Franzese, all due respect but honor and respect of the code stopped with Sonny Franzese, Michael Franzese and John Gotti. God bless all three of you.
The whole film is absolutely class , going to have to watch it again now haha
I would to hear your opinion on a classic “Once Upon A Time In America” I think it came out in 1984, starring James Woods, Joe Pesci, Tuesday Weld and Robert De Zero.
Michael are you working out??
Man you look good, always appreciate your work and I enjoy your videos a lot because there is sooo much to learn from you. Love you
AND HOW DO I ALWAYS LEAVE YOU
BE SAFE, BE HEALTHY, GOD BLESS YOU
Love your Videos very Educational can't thank you enough
The Best John Gotti Movie Ever And One Of The Best Scene In The Movie Hands Down Tuff!
"why because he's Jackie Aprile's kid? you're not gonna let this go. you can't do that. he took a shot at me, he tried to kill Furio, we're MADE"
When a guy like Anthony Quinn/delacroce tells you to SHUT UP!!! You shut up and listen. The expression on assante's face and eyes is brilliant. A guy who wasn't afraid of nobody. But when Mr. Neil hollard at him he got scared and listened. I love it gr8 scene
Thank you for the lessons and inspiration. Blessings, Kate & kids Jason, Sean, Candice, Troy
I love that movie because of Anthony Quinn. He looks and sounds exactly like my grandfather who raised me. Whenever I miss him I watch this movie.
Great Film!!!💯
Great video
I got that DVD 📀 in the late 90s still have it today..watched this gotta movie 20 times
The Sit Down simulation was a great idea! Really enjoyed it, something different. I was wrong on a couple of occasions but learnt some valuable lessons!
This was also one of my favorite scenes
Excellent video Michael
Great video and love the simulation
Nothing better than to start your day with a bowl of Cheerios and coffee while watching your videos.
Thnx Mr. Franzese , yes HBO’s GOTTI is a great movie! My big brother showed this movie to me and we both LOVE IT! Thnx for your work on your channel because it is 👌🏽!! Best of luck to you and your fam , sir!
This movie is perfect but the only thing that would make it better would be to replace the guy playing Paul Castellano with Chazz Palminteri's Paul Castellano from Boss of Bosses.
After seeing your first video on Gotti, I watched it, and loved it. I won't bother with the new one.
Well,i like Mr Michael Franzese, how he can be real gentleman with dignity&honor.
Nice seeing the old timers in action.
Michael this movie should have been a motion picture release it was that good...Assante would have easily won academy award for best actor with Anthony Quinn best supporting actor..
This has become my favourite channel on TH-cam. Superb content, insightful and so many life lessons taught. Thank you for giving your time to create such outstanding content. Have a great week.
Much Respect ✊🏿 to You, MIKE‼️💯💯💯👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Awesome
I like this very much, It shows heart pounding life decisions that had to be made; You either going to live or you going to die. No "ifs" or "buts" about when that decision is made there's no turning back. Gotti was extremely lucky and grateful that Neil pleaded for his life to be saved or otherwise no more Gotti. This shows a lot of honesty of how things were done during the yesteryear days you followed the rules or received punishment for it. I like the content on this channel very much, Keep it coming.
As Carlo Gambino said one should be smart like fox and powerful like lion. mr. Mike is both 🔥. I like how is he applying all his mob knowledge to the business world. 🔥✌🏻✌🏻 god bless you Mr. Franzese
Went to Slice’s in Dallas Saturday, I gotta tell ya, that was one of the best pies I’ve had in a long time and the meatballs…. Fogedabadit!! Keep up the great content on your podcasts. God bless you and your ministry!!
I’m diggin the simulation stuff. 👍🏼
Shoutout from Yonkers Mike 🤘🤘
Great clip great movie, great show Mike
This is my favorite channel, stay safe Michael and god bless.
So happy this channel is getting big….many people getting wisdom
This movie is great. The only thing i wish they did was make it longer. The actors did a great job all around. From gotti, dellacroce, ruggiero, castellano.
I've seen maybe every true story Cosa Nostra film there is... And this is, hands down, the most underrated of them all! Find Me Guilty is a close #2!!
Another great sit-down Michael. I've always tried in a negotiation situation listen intently to the other party and showed them I was interested in what they had to say. I knew what I wanted on my side, I tried to solicit what their bottom line was or what they would settle for. You can never go off halfcocked. No pun intended. Sometimes there only two languages known, english and profane.
Nowadays there is a lot of ego thus it's difficult to reason and deescalate a situation! Keep it up...
Ppl Can't Separate there own Pride from a Decision be in the Wrong about cause nowadays about Image ppl have this Mindset "I Can't be Wrong, Your Wrong everything you Say or Speak up About is in the Wrong" it's Ignorance Blended in with Ego-Arrogance ppl have to be Open-Minded & Be Broad Minded or else their set up to Fall.
Great work Michael👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for sharing, this movie was one of the 1st I watched on the mob. The acting was immense and as I guy from Manchester UK who knows nothing about the mob felt real and some of the scenes scared me. The movie also took me to NYC and Mulberry Street, and also to Sparks Steak House, just to be on those streets put a chill down my back. I’ve also read a book called La Costa Nostra, this a great read about the origins of the mafia in Italy, and there men of honour.
Thank you so much from Gozo, Malta 🇲🇹
