CLIP DESCRIPTION:
After Ace (Robert De Niro) tries to get Nicky (Joe Pesci) out of town, the two meet in the desert as Nicky gives Ace a piece of his mind.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
The inner-workings of a corrupt Las Vegas casino are exposed in Martin Scorsese's story of crime and punishment. The film chronicles the lives and times of three characters: "Ace" Rothstein (Robert De Niro), a bookmaking wizard; Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci), a Mafia underboss and longtime best friend to Ace; and Ginger McKenna (Sharon Stone, in a role she was born to play), a leggy ex-prostitute with a fondness for jewelry and a penchant for playing the field. Ace plays by the rules (albeit Vegas rules, which, as he reminds the audience in voiceover, would make him a criminal in any other state), while Nicky and Ginger lie, cheat, and steal their respective ways to the top. The film's first hour and a half details their rise to power, while the second half follows their downfall as the FBI, corrupt government officials, and angry mob bosses pick apart their Camelot piece by piece.

The chemistry these two have on camera is amazing.
It was even better in Goodfellas.
Timothy Raths I'd have to disagree on that one, they didn't have a single scene like this with eachother in Goodfellas
@@GHound420 well besides the scene when Tommy shot Spider they didn't
This was all improvised at that....
Woogie Harrelson I know this is a five year old comment. But this is one of the reasons I’m waiting for the Irishman!
I'm 97% certain that's how Joe Pesci talks during every conversation he has.
Insert CleverName Probably, he is a tough Jersey guy.
We need more Joe Pesci like people in this world today!!!!
this probably wasnt even in the script. Joe probably just walked in the set angry and they started filming.
Naw he just raps about women who provide deserving real respect.
Whats about the other 3%
The shot in which the sunglasses reflect the car going past is just top notch stuff!! 0:32
I love that! So cool!
Topped only by the very end when Pesci peels out and Deniro stands there as the dust wafts over him.
@@timmytheimpaler props for using the word wafts
Yep
The perfect PC wallpaper
This is how God was yelling at Moses in the desert.
This comment needs way more likes. Lmfaooo! 😂😂
This comment is pure gold.
“You only exist out here because of ME.”
Underrated
Where dafuq you get off worshipping Baal behind my back
Even the sand was nervous
Great line!!!!😊
🤣
lol
Jajajajaja 🤣😂
It's rough and irritating. And it gets everywhere.
I love the sound effect of him squealing his tires on sand.
Holyshit, I just caught that!
bruh
I assume De Niro had a stand-in for the peel-out sand-in-your-face scene.
lol
that moment when you realize tires can squeal on sand and dirt.
This scene was 99% improvised. Martin Scorsese gave them an opening and closing line, and everything in between was up to them.
Considering that Pesci is very well known for his comedic chops. He's pretty good in improvisation just like the "Funny How" scene in Goodfellas. People who understood comedy perfectly knows their best in improvising, Pesci is one of them. Improvisation can always work, the timing just need to be right
This is a masterclass in acting. They both knew their characters and brought them out in this scene. One of my favorites in the whole movie.
That's incredible
Not to be that guy but this isn't true at all I read the script in school.
@@Fantasyfootballreaper was it a shooting script? Any deleted scenes? Any area where they imporvised?
The car’s reflection in his glasses looks like a bullet going through his head.
That Martin Scorsese.....he knows how to shoot pictures!
Beautiful cinematography
Angles 👍🏻
De Niro's glassess tho
Some silly shit happened in the '70s. Scorsese is not afraid to show it.
stirange No he was wearing the Google Dream headset before it was cool!!
JoJo McJoJo i give him props for being accurate to the timeline. :)
Those goofy ass frames worn by Reuben in ocean's 11 go for $300.00 easy.
Iconic mob specs Uncle Junior also
Team Neon lol..
Without the f-bombs this is a silent movie.
Samir Adams more like a comedy
I just watched it for the first time on TV without the swears. I didn’t notice until a little more than half way in, but man I wish I watched the uncensored version. I thought the movie was amazing regardless, but I could tell something was off in that respect.
On TV a substitute was "FREAK YOU, FREAK YOU!!"
@Samir Adams vudu
@Samir Adams coziness
These two are legends. You do no see acting like this on the regular
And together they are epic
Without Doubt...✌
0:15 Lmao even his car moves angrily.
1. Ace is actually correct in this scene, and Nicky was getting way out of line. It's why the bosses decided to whack him. Nicky did not make Ace's casino possible--the bosses did. Ace had the casino before Nicky came out to Vegas.
2. Joe Pesci is one of the two greatest "cussers" in the world; the other being Samuel L. Jackson.
of course he is correct and we all know that. Nicky had gotten his head so big he was delusional.
***** Oh yeah...in reality both Ace and Nicky got out of control. I mean, Ace was walking around with a cigarette holder & a pink robe "like fuckin' John Barrymore". I love this film because it's about two guys who get the world of Vegas basically handed to them, and they manage to blow it all to hell (literally, in the case of Ace's car).
***** Yeah, but the bosses could have sent almost any muscle out there to do Nicky's job. Ace was a unique talent.
***** Ace was more than justified. IRL, Spilotro's job was to make sure of the skim on the casinos Rosenthal controlled. His other activities were strictly freelance, and as far as the real bosses back in Chicago were concerned they drew WAY too much attention to what was going on. That's what ultimately did him in. Had he taken Rosenthal's advice here, he'd have lived longer.
Rosenthal was smarter. He died of natural causes.
***** True, other crews didn't fuck with Ace because of Nicky.
I love the tightrope Ace has to walk here. He can only be so aggressive in his posture and attitude bc Nicky is a made man, but he can't completely back down bc Nicky will lose all respect for him and roll over him. Awesome scene.
*****
When Remo asked Frankie "the little guy, he wouldn't be fucking the jews wife would he ? , cuz if he is, its a problem" thats when you knew Nicky was gonna get whacked eventually , when they found out, plus all the other crazy shit he did
'. He was a good character ,but he was a psychopath, he had to go. him and his brother.
*****
lol how was is sad that nicky had to die? He was a poison that had to go, he wanted to take everything over but fucked everything up.
***** Sad? He was a fucking psychopath. The world was better off without him, both this fictional world and the real world of the real-life person he was based on, Anthony "the Ant" Spilotro.
Good analysis - that's how I see it too - can't look weak but don't threaten Nicky either - lol.
He wouldn't "Roll over him" because he Still respects him and they are friends don't forget the Scene with Ginger She wants to have Ace Whacked and Nicky tells her " I've know him all my life I'm gonna whack the guy for you" ?? Also Smacks the cowboy (Nicky's own guy) with a Telephone over his Head for Disrespecting Ace, despite their Fall outs he still has Mad Respect for him.
Scorsese is ingenious. The first minute of this scene is like pure art. The use of Theme de Camille is perfect, the addition of Ginger Baker's drum solo over it creates an underlying sense of urgency and intensity which blends beautifully with the cinematography and fits Ace's monologue.
100%
MS is really good with the music. He got me into some stuff from waaaaay before I was born because of how well he mixes music and imagery.
To me it’s duel themes playing at the same time. With one sounding dominant. Possibly resembling the energy of each character.
,💯%
Martin Scorsese can make a 5-hour movie with just Joe Pesci and Robert DeNiro talking, and that would still win an Oscar.
By far my favourite scene of the movie simply because of the sheer acting chemistry showcased here. THIS is what acting is supposed to feel like. When I watch this scene I'm not seeing two actors delivering lines I see two guys having a heated conversation.
Me two and the fact that most of this was improv shows how great these two work together.
You've got to see Raging Bull. It was the first time De Niro and Pesci ever worked together, yet their dialogue flowed so naturally in it that it takes no effort to believe that they aren't actors on screen but real siblings.
well put, De Niro is of course a Legend in acting, along with Pesci. It just sucks that Pesci is so underrated nowadays and doesn't get any memorable parts in movies. There has to be a script out there where these two Titans of acting can come together or collide. Hopefully, Mr.Scorsese has something up his sleeve, I hope.
Funniest scene in the 🎥!😄💯💯
Thank you, I couldn't have said it better!
God damn this is good acting
that's a funny joke...
+Harry Vaughn you're a funny joke.
damn skippy these two are freaking awesome together
You almost got me!!
Wyatt Godtel David Hume What's the matter? The two of ya think ur a couple of big boys cause you think a movie where a guy sticks another guys head in a vise and they all say fuck every 30 seconds? You like that kind of trash? Oh yeah this movie was a real masterpiece....right up there with Wolf of Wallstreet...hahahahaaa
How he drove away and the dust covered Deniro ever so gently was pure gold
Nicky calling Vegas “my town.” Ace telling Nicky to lay low in fear of the “bosses” if something went wrong with the casino. A brilliantly executed scene as it highlighted how both of them were operating way out of their depth IMO. The city councilman who was wearing what appeared to be $1500/$2000 dollar snake skin boots made it very clear to Ace that they (Italian & Jewish mobsters) were all guests in Nevada during their meeting. His true power swayed the court to deny Ace (which translated to the entire outfit) their much needed gaming license. He had the power to sway a decision which set in motion a chain of events where the outfit collapsed from within as it pertained to that specific operation and investment. An absolute brilliant film!
This movie has one of the best narrations iv'e ever heard
Everytime pesci narrates i crack up haha
There is no narration in this scene. It's called dialogue.
fight club has the best narration of all time
@@PretentiousStuff Fight Club is definitely good. Not sure what number one is, but I'd put Wolf of Wallstreet and Shawshank in the top 5.
This and The Shawshank Redemption.
You know what's funny? In the line "You Jew motherucker you" was changed, in the PG version, to "You Jew money lover you". As if that's actually cleaner.
I'm surprised they didn't go with "You chew muddy butter you".
Funny how? How is that funny? Funny like it's a clown? It amuses you? It's here to fucking amuse you?
rumandcoke32 Why would they ever make a pg version of this movie? WHY?!
You should see the one they did of Scareface .
I watched Casino on USA network. It's hilarious. "Get this through your head you Jew money lover you!" Haha. It's like watching a Samuel L. Jackson movie like Die Hard With A Vengeance or Snakes On A Plane where he is calling everyone "melon farmers", just hilarious.
One of the most outstanding scenes in cinema history imo. The passion and true anger shown was so realistic.
Pesci should’ve snagged a supporting Oscar for this. This argument scene is one of the best of all time.
0:50 that sassy walk from Pesci always gets me :)
Love the way Pesci starts a new thought at 2:22, DeNiro tries to interject and Pesci just steam rolls him. The look on DeNiro @ 2:24 is priceless.
That's great acting
"You're gonna deny that basic fact? Alright, sorry for ever thinking I wasn't arguing with a brick wall." lol
On spot brother!!!!
@@edwardsmith6906 yeah... That was on the spot....
Pesci’s intensity went up a couple of notches here. Just an amazing actor!!
This movie was pure gold. Pesci always gives that little extra to the dialogue that makes it fresh even after 25 years.
This makes me want to get in an argument. There's my little brother I'll be right back
Do u know movie? Bro back Garden?
hahahahahah
Lol....I wonder if he went and fought with his brother
Legend has it that he's still arguing with his brother till this day
Hahaha it's 4 years later and that gets my vote for comment of the year 💯
Try watching the censored version of this so funny
"YOU JEW MUTHALUVA YOU"lol
TV version is "You freakin' sucker, you!"
The one I heard is "You Stupid Sucker, You!"
That's funny, but the funniest TV version of a gangster movie will always be Brian De Palma's Scarface (with screenplay by Oliver Stone). The F word is reportedly heard 218 times, so that's a lot of times that the F word needs to be replaced with something "cleaner. " And in one of the most important scenes, Alejandro Sosa (Paul Shenar) warns Tony Montana (Al Pacino), "I only tell you one time. Don't fool with me, Tony. Don't you ever try to fool me." It's unintentionally hilarious.
The censored version is just his Home Alone dubs. Fridgin Fradgin.
Scarface censored is still my favorite. "Where'd you get that scar from tony? Eating too much PINEAPLLE!" or "This town is like a giant CHICKEN waiting to get PLUCKED"
I love the realness of this scene. It’s not just “I’m mad” “no I’m madder than you” the lines made the other actors character THINK and really respond truthfully. As mad as Nicky was you could tell some of the words Ace said struck him. He had the upper hand of course, but Ace held his own. This was magic 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
How in the holy hell did pesci or de niro not get nominated for this movie? This scene right here is pure oscar awarding.
I have no idea honestly they got screwed over on the nomination
Amazing cinematography in this scene.
Agreed.
Especially the wheel scratching like it wasn't desert but asphalt
The way Nicky drives through Sam’s sunglasses brilliant!
Entire movie great cinematography
Thank for Robert Richardson.
DeNiro's facial expression at 2:24
Yes loool
+Anish Saripalli awesome....
Pissed the hell off.
My favorite part. He's like "I know I'm right, but I'm not going to say anything. Just let him fizzle out and get this over with."
Right? That's the face of a guy saying 'I'm officially done with this.'
One of the only reasons he probably doesn't throw a punch is cause by the end, Nick would make him floss with his own shoe laces.
Pesci is simply amazing in the movie. Casting was outstanding!!
Joe Pesci's driving in this scene a 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo.
Thanks
I heard those old cars were very very durable. I live in the city so it's rare to see these older car models. I love them.
This is improvised and you can tell 100%. Joe Pesci is the most under appreciated actor of all time.
I know, but he wears it well, better than most people do anything else.
Ken, moron. You've clearly never seen My Cousin Vinny.
Gone Fishing, Home Alone, Lethal Weapon, With Honors... he has lots of range. The crime stuff was his wheelhouse. Hell Raging Bull and Once Upon A Time in America was different. Don't get it twisted, he's one of the best to ever do it.
he has an oscar
You could not be more right and it’s a damn shame he’s name will be forgottten if we don’t make sure the new generation knows who he is
Must be hot wearing a suit in the desert.
dry heat
***** lol
Actually it works backwards....depending on what you're wearing - covering your skin up more is actually cooler than letting the sun beat directly on you. That's why middle eastern dudes wear man-jamies.
Yeah I mean Las Vegas is very hot
yeah but those man jammies are loose and help keep pockets on air in them to keep them cool.... a suit is form fitting.... you feel like a waffle in a waffle iron... trust me
The way he says “f-ing TV shows” hits different
Just think there's a whole generation now that has never experienced your car continuing to run after you shut it off 🤣🤣🤣
Leaded gas.
My first thought - turbo timer.
one of the best scenes in movie history
lol
geddoe316 lol
***** I SAID LOL
well spotted
***** He finds it funny like it amuses him. Like this scene's a fuckin' clown, like it's here to fuckin' amuse him.
The acting it's so good that if you just listen to the audio alone it sounds like a real argument between to people on a radio show
stellar performance
I love these clips. Seeing just certain parts of a movie really makes me appreciate the art of the actors more.
This is seriously one of the best scenes of all time
which means that even if Santoro is your best buddy, is in a good mood and you ain't got nothing to split with him you still run at least 1% chance of getting killed by him..
good point
+BlackCrowNavajo NIcki was a blowhard who often set upon people via ambush. He couldn't go toe to toe with someone. Notice all the scenes of violence he perpetrates are basically sneak attacks. He is ultimately a coward. Joe Pesci is very one dimensional as an actor sadly.
Hey Ken yer brain is *Quarter* dimensional you full tard
@@Bradgilliswhammyman right... like when he ambushed the cowboy’s face with the phone.
Love the way Pesci drives off spewing dust all over DeNiro!
Brian Battles tires don't squeal on dirt roads 2:45
And the way deniro just stands there all deniro-y
bassage13 Nevada Native - 50 years. No they do Not!
A callback to Raging Bull.
The dust in his face is so disrespectful. Perfect foreshadowing.
De Niro’s incredulous eye rolling in this movie always gets me because he’s always right
This is how Biden should have talked to Netanyahu.
I can watch Joe Pesci swear nonstop and I'll never get bored. Classic.
Meeting in the middle of the desert always made me nervous.
This is one of the best scene's in mob movie history. This scene was totally spontaneous between Pesci and Deniro.
I love the Bert & Ernie version of this scene. XD
Clearly Ace should have told him to go home and get his shinebox
😂😂😂
USA talkin to Isreal here ...
That is not a good sign...seeing as what happens at the end, lol.
Lmao
Pesci is Israel yelling at The U.S.(de niro)
Tamerlane other way around buddy
TM Films no he’s not.. Pesci says ”You jew motherfucker you!”... why would a jew say that.. You and Tamerlane didn’t get the joke
If I ever met Joe IRL I'd just ask - "Joe, please just say one word - ME!" LMAO!
0:33 this shot is beatiful, Scorsese is definitely one of the Goats
Masterful direction by Scorsese. This is the scene that made me realize that I prefer 'Casino' over 'Goodfellas'.
Peter Frank nahh
Blasphemy
Me I love both goodfellas and casino
It’s the same damn movie just different story I don’t see how one is better than the other
@@taylorpack7705 "it's the same movie just a different story" lfmao
Joe Pesci's role in this movie becomes even more believable and interesting once you find out that the real life person he was playing was actually very similar in height and build. They even said he has somewhat of a violent Napoleon complex resulting from it.
Martin: Joe how many curse words do you want in this scene
Joe: Yes
This scene is so epic! The music, monologue, dialogue and landscape IDK how Marty didn't get his Oscar for this.
This is the definition of chemistry between two characters
WTF They stole this scene from Sesame Street.
Bert vs ernie
2:42 Imagine him saying that to Macaulay Culkin when he was filming the Home Alone movies
Fun Fact: Both DeNiro & Pesci we’re having difficulties memorizing the lines so they inserted the F bomb to help them memorize the dialogues and Marty was like “that wasn’t part of the script but whatever.”
Haha 😄 they pesci does drop the f bomb alot
I have always loved this movie. Particularly the relationship between Sam and Nikki. Nikki, being the strong arm gangster he is not even being mad at people have killed them. Someone pisses him off, he kills them with a pen. Here Nikki is mad enough to chew nails and spit out horseshoes but doesn't touch Sam. Later when Ginger wants Nikki to wack Sam, Nikki gets pissed off at her and kicks her out. Really shows how tight Sam and Nikki really were.
Oh, for fuck's sake... NICKY. Not Nikki. NICKY.
jack604
Actually, that was at the same time that NIKKI was also in hot water for bringing heat down on the whole establishment in Vegas. Like Sam says "you could tell it was amateur hour".
Rumor has it she hired some idiot biker friends from back home in CA to take care of the job, after Nikki said, No. Makes sense, a true professional would've researched the car before planting a bomb underneath the "steel plate of life."
I’m almost certain this scene was improvised. Scorsese just set it up and DeNiro and Pesci delivered
I thought I heard something where Scorsese would tell DeNiro and Pesci, for their one-on-one scenes, how the conversation was going to start, and how it would end. He would just let them improvise the filler in-between
Is it possible to burn rubber in the desert the way he pulled off 😂😂😂
Joe Pesci is one of the greatest actors who ever lived and this scene is a classic example why
I love how Joe Pesci said "Batshit!" XD
This scene is apex in one of the most robust cinema creations ever. This film is better than Goodfella's.
Jacky G I don't know about that one both great movies but goodfellas was better
Agree 2018
It's paced way better, I agree. GF is like the prototype of Casino imo
Casino is hands down better than Goodfellas.
Nah, it's no contest. Casino is the flashier, longer version of Goodfellas. Casino is about the fall of the Vegas mob whereas Goodfellas tells a way more relatable, personal tale of how one man falls in and violently out of love (even regretfully) with the mob. Thematically they share so much but Goodfellas tells a tighter story and hits the same notes Casino does in 30 minutes less runtime.
They are both great films but I think people who like Casino more are too mesmerized by all the flashing lights, kinetic camera moves, and larger cast to realize Goodfellas said more with way less.
This scene has some serious Breaking Bad vibes. Imagine Joe Pesci arguing with Bryan Cranston!
Only has BB vibes cuz its a desert lmao b honest
"Talking about me behind my back, going over my head" 😂
One of the greatest movie scenes of all time!!

This 3-minute clip is a master class of film making, sound, editing, acting, etc etc.... it could/should win an Oscar all by itself!
The car still running after he turns it off, is a nice touch.
Don't you ever go over my shinebox again
Joe Pesci makes most famous actors look like amateurs...
true
I love it
Watching this on HBO was hilarious. Usually HBO was good at cutting cuss words out and seamlessly stitching the sentence back together, but with this scene they just couldn't. Pesci was basically glitching.
HBO doesn't edit the movies though.
You’re thinking of TCM I believe.
“U $&@ muddafucka youuu..the way he says it omg hysterical
Sometimes I do wonder who says "motherfucker" better: Samuel L. Jackson or Joe Pesci...
It's a toss up between the two of them that being said I would love to see that film lol
What a fucking movie.
Pesci is a master of taking a phrase he has no right completing with the air in his lungs and just squeezing out that last bit of emphasis that makes you FEEL exactly what his character is feeling...and what everyone he's talking to is fearing.
2:26 I love how you can tell he wants to say something but he has to hold his tounge
It's like an unholy Abbott and Costello.
Hahahahaaa Precisely!
Nicky Santoro, the baddest of the bad.
Tommy DeVito: Hold my shinebox
Does anybody notice that tires don't squeal on sand? 🤣
Love everything about this. Schonmakers editing, the eye melting lighting and of course the acting and Marty's directing
"You're fuckin' warned, don't evvvvvvver go over my fuckin' head again,....you muddafucker you!!!!!"
LOL
Nicky's car racing across Sam's sunglasses is one of my favorite shots ever
I was thinking to remake a similar shot for my shortfilm. This scene is pure art.
That’s how it feels to meet you bully at 3pm after school.

This is the best scene in the movie.
Its good to know that sand doesn't obey the laws of physics when Joe Pesci peels off.

Unpopular opinion: Casino is better than Goodfellas.

Goodfellas has some better scenes in it, but I like Casino better from start to finish.
