Shaking, giving up names without hesitation under questioning, pissing your pants, crying out "mommy"...all good qualities in becoming a made man. No wonder they did an overkill on him.
Lilo Brancato said in an interview when they filmed this scene. He was genuinely afraid of James Gandolfini. He said the look of anger and disdain in his eyes scared him.
He was territorial like that. Nobody better touch anybody under him but he could whack you anytime, for any reason and you have sit there and take it. It was some real greaseball shit.
After watching the show, when I rewatch it, it has a different feel, I see through the facade of cool tough guys and see it’s really a tragedy, about the fall of Tony but also why he deserves to fall
The show really did a great job of displaying the warped and antiquated logic and moral code of people like Tony. He's portrayed as an almost sympathetic character, while being this hardened mob boss that was always a few steps ahead of those around him (he had to be, in his dog eat dog reality). Frustratingly, Tony and a number of the other characters were hero worshipped, when it was made clear all the time that while they were written as likeable and understandable characters (as in, we could understand why they do the things they do, it's just "their world") the underlying message is that organized crime and the people that perpetrate is are not people to idolize, many innocent bystanders end up caught up in their enterprise and they couldn't care less of this being the case - if anything they need them, as they contribute to their money making and power grabbing capabilities. Not to mention just how little life is valued to them, as is displayed in this series. Sure, there may be rules for dealing with some people but ultimately unless you're "made" killing is just another part of the job. But I digress; a core underlying theme of the series was to question why people might look at various characters and hero worship them, idolize or even sympathize with people capable of such acts? this was brilliantly accented in the final scene where we're left wondering if Tony finally got whacked. Part of why they left it open ended was to challenge the viewer to not only pick apart why Tony would have been targeted by other bosses, but also to ask the viewer why they would feel anything for Tony, considering all that he and his crew had done?
2:02 What I like about the Sopranos is how good these sociopaths can hide how malicious and cold they are…one second they’re your best friend. Offering you drinks, being your confidante….then they just…goodbye.
They want you to calm down so they can get more info out of you. He really just wanted to know if Ritchie was in on it. Once he got what he wanted, time to meet your maker.
He even calls him “T” at the very end, when Tony made it clear early on that “you don’t get to call me T.” That must have pissed Tony off all the more. A fuck-up to the very end.
Lmao, 😅🤣😅, Exactamundo, how this idiot made it to early adulthood is beyond me,, definately one of the dumbest character in the whole of The Sopranos, and he's got a stockbroker licence lol.

Scary how Tony gives the kid a false sense of everything is going to be ok…. The Writing, acting and directing, apex top level in this show, brilliant scene
Powerful underrated scene phenomenal script and acting. Character development of Tony tied with plot is spot on, telling pussy 3s a crowd/ he’ll handle it himself. Miss this show
@@B_51442 she wasn't really "in" the mob though, she was just an associate. It's the same deal with any other mafia associate, especially ones who aren't italian. They can work with the wise guys but they can never be made. It's also why she was bumped off so easily, she didn't have the same benefits and protections of a made member.
@@diablerietandino1941 This is true. It also means you have a smaller margin of error being an associate of the mob as opposed to a part of it because you're expendable. I mean, Lorraine was told the money went up to John. She was told more than once. When that didn't work, Phil showed up and made a very convincing argument for why she should tote the line. But the message didn't sink in. She apparently didn't realize she was very much expendable.
This is one of many reasons why Tony was fed up with Chris in the end. He risked getting 20 to life for Chris by killing Matt, because Tony obviously loved Chris so much at the time. Neither of them are saints, but Tony definitely used this incident in his head among other horrific past events to justify killing Chris.
I never got why, without gloves, they would murder people and just drop the gun with their fingerprints on it but yet a diet Fanta…. Naw that’s too much evidence.
@@PizzaCake360 Because police can use anything you touched for evidence but with guns they wipe the gun and leave it only because you dont want to be caught with a murder weapon just after murdering someone
Watched this clip a million times and still pick up on new nuances, like how part of why Tony “wants” to do it is to make sure Pussy goes through with it
Trying to make sure if he is a rat and indeed wearing a wire he knows the feds wouldn’t want him committing murder, or another case when they’re grabbing the hardware out the closet and Tony says I wanna do it and big puss says good, sort of like I got him on tape talking about murder and killing someone, or the other situation big puss thinks and feels at that one moment that tony was or is on to him and is going to whack him after killing Matt
He’s scared that he is 3:56 going to be killed. He calms down and believes he’s in the clear. He than realizes he is most definitely about to be killed. Heavy.
And that’s another reason they killed him. Because as soon as he was under pressure he buckled and started singing like a fucking canary. He didn’t stand tall, he was quick to sell out Sean. Just one more liability that had to be dealt with.
A key aspect of this scene that isn’t talked about much is the way Tony looks at Pussy after the first shot. This wasn’t just revenge for the guy who tried to kill Chris, it was a test to see how reluctant Pussy would be to do a hit like this since the FBI obviously wouldn’t allow him to do that as an informant. Wonderful amazing writing and acting!
Interesting. Also, the way Pussy starts off slow, then fires more and more, almost over compensating. Tony eventually joins in, and they shoot way more times than they needed to. Possibly because he knows it's his last hit with Pussy, possibly out of anger towards Pussy.
Never noticed it before, but when Puss hands him the soda, it's wrapped in a napkin. I did notice that detail, but I never put it together that it's him preventing his prints from being on the can
"Don't you think we woulda killed you already, if we wanted you dead?" Tony acts so nice to the kid all the while knowing the kid is dead from the start. Stringing him along, keeping him with the belief he's going to be alright, is a truly terrifying scene but brilliantly done! 😊
He really shows his vengeful, cruel self right here. Yeah Matt was a moron who was doomed from the start due to lack of brains, and he had to die but why not just shoot him and be done with it? Why beat him up, take him to an empty building and tie him to a chair and tell him he wasn't going to kill him? He's just basking in this kid's terror knowing he was going to kill him the whole time, but him fucking with Matt's mind and giving him false hope like that (and ENJOYING it) is horrifying. Gandolfini really was way too good of an actor.
@@laurafreedlund2899 They brought him there to interrogate him to find out if someone (like Richie Aprile) had them go after Chris or if it was just them who orchestrated it.
Tony still had the suspicion that Big P was a rat. By being only them 2 and having him also shoot Matt, he was testing his loyalty. He made him accountable. That's why he turned to look at him to see if he was going to shoot as well.I think Tony picked up in Big P's hesitation.
"Nobody knows who stole the chicken? (gunshots) Still, nobody knows, (A boy steps up, crying) It was you. You committed this crime." "No, sir." "But you know who?" "Yes." "Who?" (Boy points to dead man) "Him!"
You know, I remember watching this scene and wondering whether at the time whether Tony had a conscience or not, whether he felt bad killing a weeping young guy screaming for his mother? Then in like, season 6 when he remorselessly murders Christopher, who was way more of a son to him than his own fuckup son, and it made more sense why he could just do this.
Man the actor who played Matt is so good. He totally had this coming, but I still can't help but feel bad for him with how he delivers the line: "Thank you, T." So pathetic and weirdly innocent.
To those who want to say "someone like Tony has a lot of balls to post videos of a illegal act such as this onto their TH-cam channel" I'd like to remind the court that the video in question is heavily edited and should therefore be striken from evidence. There is not a single wide shot that shows the defendant, Anthony Soprano, actually shoot and kill the victim.
This is a classic sadistic scene. Tony offers Matt a soda as a nice "gesture" to make him feel better and that there might be hope of his release but in reality his fate is sealed.
not gonna lie, I would definitely prefer to die by being shot, supperless fanta in my hand, if the other option is uncle Phily being pissed that I shot his baby brother.
1:55 seems like a bit of a plot hole. Richie was acting like he had no idea where Matt was and/or like he ever went to him after the hit. Scenes like the hospital where he acts clueless and now Matt just admitted Richie “got mad” when he told him, therefor revealing that they actually met and had a conversation. I feel like that right there would have gotten Richie killed because he should have killed Matt upon learning that, or at least kept him inside the social club until Tony and others could arrive and take care of him. Revealing that he and Richie met and spoke about the failed hit, even if Richie wasn’t in on it, should have been a death sentence for Richie but it somehow just got swept under the rug in the plot of the show.
@@cornusia - you know what you are right. I remember him saying he deserved getting made pointing to his stomach or something. It's been so long since I watched this great show.
I believe James stood 6' 6", and weighed around 300 lbs. He would've made a great mafia capo. Let's just be thankful he chose to become an actor instead.
@PGBlips Was wondering why Puss wrapped the soda can in a napkin. Thought he was just a neat freak. 😆 I wonder if someone smarter than Matt would have picked up on that and gotten clued in. I mean, there is no need to worry about your fingerprints if they were gonna let Matt loose, right?🤔
They offered Matthew beverage of choice, but gave him the diet sodas lying around before he could answer. He didn't even disrespect the Snack Bar either. Death row inmates are treated far more humanely.
If you were asked to provide the top 10 most intense scenes in tv history, this and the final scene at Holsteins would be on it. An absolute masterclass in tension. Gandolfini’s range from empathy to rage is astonishing.
Wait…Barzini…sounds familiar…I think I heard something about it being HIM all along…had to do with that other guy Tattagglia being a pimp or something. Sounds like Michael could have used a war-time Robert Duval.
That's sad. But that's the life even a Cappo's live belongs to the boss. That's the price for being given a piece of the action. A made man can steal, even kill so long as the other person isn't made. Or a nuclear family of a made guy. You dirty rat ya killed my second cousins, friends teachers aunt. I'm gonna make you pay!
Tony calming down Matthew reminds me of Michael Corleone's conversation with Carlo after Santino's killing. Calmed him down, told him he wasn't gonna make his sister a widow, got the information he needed, then whacked him anyways lol. He even got him a drink first.
After a fuck up like that... Matt should've drove the car straight out of New Jersey. Should've went so far West, he'd circle around the globe twice, and went up to Alaska. Never to resurface.
Tony has the biggest balls of all time to post this video of him murdering a guy onto his TH-cam channel.

Even when he's literally staring death in the face, the kid STILL screws up and calls Tony "T"...
You lie you die
Don’t matter at that point, he coulda called him cheese fuck woulda been the same outcome
LOL!! I noticed that too.
Didn't he almost drown in 3" of water...?
@@IRequireMedication That was Jackie Aprile Jr , not Matt Bevilaqua.
Scary how Tony gives the kid a false sense of everything is going to be ok…. The Writing, acting and directing, apex top level in this show, brilliant scene
Bevilaqua means drink the water. A fitting final act.
he drank soda, a DIET soda of all things.
a failure to the end.
Imagine having Drinkwater as a family name and the last thing you drank was a soda.
Imagine if his name was Drinkfanta-Bulletchest.
A diet soda at that
@@emjay9280 ayyy hope you see this.

...a sugarless mothrrFKKRR at THAT
The soft drink was a made man, and Matt wasn't; and nothing can be done about it.
Underrated comment
For real, this comment should have like 5 thousand likes....proves nobody knows mob classic
It was among the Italians. It was real greaseball shit.
I hope these comments continue years from now on
They even shot Matt in the face so his mother couldn't have an open coffin at the funeral
The saddest thing in life is wasted talent
He was high the whole time when he was on set for the sopranos
i know. there was probably a few drinks left in that can.
that actor did time in NY for a botched drug robbery on an off duty NY cops apartment wasted talent
Powerful underrated scene phenomenal script and acting. Character development of Tony tied with plot is spot on, telling pussy 3s a crowd/ he’ll handle it himself. Miss this show
I can guarantee Matt won't do that again, he learned his lesson. It'll take some time to get back into Tony's good graces.
Yeah when he picks out the dozen odd bullets wedged in his torso and skull lol
He's dying to make it up for him.
Too bad Lillo Brancato took his paycheck and put it up his nose, or whatever....
depending on your views of re-incarnation, some time indeed!
Yeah he definitely wont, just need some bandaids
The whole conversation was just about finding out if Richie was involved
Janice will take care of Richie. Tony should have made her a Capo after that hit
@@pip12111 janice wouldnt make a bad capo though
@Harold Jenkins lorraine aka lady shylock from little carmine crew was the only woman in the mob that wasn't a housewife
@@B_51442 she wasn't really "in" the mob though, she was just an associate. It's the same deal with any other mafia associate, especially ones who aren't italian. They can work with the wise guys but they can never be made. It's also why she was bumped off so easily, she didn't have the same benefits and protections of a made member.
@@diablerietandino1941 This is true. It also means you have a smaller margin of error being an associate of the mob as opposed to a part of it because you're expendable. I mean, Lorraine was told the money went up to John. She was told more than once. When that didn't work, Phil showed up and made a very convincing argument for why she should tote the line. But the message didn't sink in. She apparently didn't realize she was very much expendable.
This is one of many reasons why Tony was fed up with Chris in the end. He risked getting 20 to life for Chris by killing Matt, because Tony obviously loved Chris so much at the time. Neither of them are saints, but Tony definitely used this incident in his head among other horrific past events to justify killing Chris.
Sheesh when did Fanta commercials get so dark?
LOL
@@cactusmalone
Gotta make room for the goodness of Fanta.
It was originally a Nazi German drink:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanta
Wait till you find out the origin of Fanta
@@winter_silhouette See my comment above.
I love the tiny details in this show like how he hands the drink over to him with a napkin covering it so no fingerprints would get on the can.
I never got why, without gloves, they would murder people and just drop the gun with their fingerprints on it but yet a diet Fanta…. Naw that’s too much evidence.
@@PizzaCake360 Because police can use anything you touched for evidence but with guns they wipe the gun and leave it only because you dont want to be caught with a murder weapon just after murdering someone
@@nasirreese766 no it's because they take the cannoli
@@nasirreese766 Right. So you could just wipe the can afterwards to avoid the biggest telltale sign in the history of murder.
@@jordanflores5687 rofl
Watched this clip a million times and still pick up on new nuances, like how part of why Tony “wants” to do it is to make sure Pussy goes through with it
Trying to make sure if he is a rat and indeed wearing a wire he knows the feds wouldn’t want him committing murder, or another case when they’re grabbing the hardware out the closet and Tony says I wanna do it and big puss says good, sort of like I got him on tape talking about murder and killing someone, or the other situation big puss thinks and feels at that one moment that tony was or is on to him and is going to whack him after killing Matt
He’s scared that he is 3:56 going to be killed. He calms down and believes he’s in the clear. He than realizes he is most definitely about to be killed.
Heavy.
"Anything Tony I'll tell you anything you wanna know" signs of a future rat.
Never thought about that, but you're exactly right
He's basically pointing the finger at Shawn, that's not a stand up thing to do
And that’s another reason they killed him. Because as soon as he was under pressure he buckled and started singing like a fucking canary. He didn’t stand tall, he was quick to sell out Sean. Just one more liability that had to be dealt with.
@@ericnelson6725 oh yes... how deep of you to think that.
Bro he was blaming the dead guy as soon as it happened lmfao
A key aspect of this scene that isn’t talked about much is the way Tony looks at Pussy after the first shot. This wasn’t just revenge for the guy who tried to kill Chris, it was a test to see how reluctant Pussy would be to do a hit like this since the FBI obviously wouldn’t allow him to do that as an informant. Wonderful amazing writing and acting!
Interesting. Also, the way Pussy starts off slow, then fires more and more, almost over compensating. Tony eventually joins in, and they shoot way more times than they needed to. Possibly because he knows it's his last hit with Pussy, possibly out of anger towards Pussy.
Pussy was shooting blanks🤣🤣
Not much to talk about as it's fairly obvious.
@@LTG22 me personally on my first watch through I didn’t catch it but yeah rewatching it with context makes it obvious Tony was testing Pus here
@@jaitsu1616 yeah its just part of the whole season.
That was really gracious of Tony to provide Matt soft drinks of choice.
You say that but they offered him a Fanta and then went with a Diet Coke... so I don't think the Bevilaqua kid was treated at all fairly.
@@dellwright1407 it wasp a diet fanta
Tony knew he was a liar when he said the diet Fanta was good
That's why he had to go.
The next time I order a diet coke at McDonalds.
I'm gonna say
"I'll take a large sugarless motherfucker please"
No refills though - that's the last fuckin drink you're ever gonna have.
+xjusticex2013x hahahaha
Diet fizzy drinks are much worse than the regular.
Tell them it was Sean all the way.
I said that
Cant believe he survived that and never drank sugarless Fanta again. He learned his lesson thanks to Tony’s thoughtful intervention.
he didn’t survive
@@ramsnation196 woooosh
@@ramsnation196 he did. He appeared in a later episode at an anti soda rally.
@@ramsnation196 we got a winner here
@@carlitobrigante4999 lol whatttt
Never noticed it before, but when Puss hands him the soda, it's wrapped in a napkin. I did notice that detail, but I never put it together that it's him preventing his prints from being on the can
Shame the hesitation at shooting ended up betraying him. One more moment of tony noticing "off" things he doesn't want to see.
That can of Fanta made this scene better than a Coca-Cola could ever dream of 💯
"Don't you think we woulda killed you already, if we wanted you dead?"
Tony acts so nice to the kid all the while knowing the kid is dead from the start. Stringing him along, keeping him with the belief he's going to be alright, is a truly terrifying scene but brilliantly done! 😊
He really shows his vengeful, cruel self right here. Yeah Matt was a moron who was doomed from the start due to lack of brains, and he had to die but why not just shoot him and be done with it? Why beat him up, take him to an empty building and tie him to a chair and tell him he wasn't going to kill him? He's just basking in this kid's terror knowing he was going to kill him the whole time, but him fucking with Matt's mind and giving him false hope like that (and ENJOYING it) is horrifying. Gandolfini really was way too good of an actor.
@@laurafreedlund2899 They brought him there to interrogate him to find out if someone (like Richie Aprile) had them go after Chris or if it was just them who orchestrated it.
@@Aaron_Scissorhands exactly.
Kid should notice some details lile the fact they gave a can wrapped in a napkin.
Tony’s eyes in the flame of the light at 1:47 spells Matthew’s death
Tony still had the suspicion that Big P was a rat. By being only them 2 and having him also shoot Matt, he was testing his loyalty. He made him accountable. That's why he turned to look at him to see if he was going to shoot as well.I think Tony picked up in Big P's hesitation.
I didn't even think about that.
Yep
Agreed.
Exactly!
Anyway, 4 dollars a pound.
Gotta give props to Matt, he didn’t blame Shaun.
Give em props. He didn’t blame Shawn
Sean
You don’t need that shit that happened the other day
Lol, that last gulp from the can.
Gets me every time.
DeNiro is gonna be pissed they killed his son, C.
The Clownservatarian hahaha yeah when he finish the work and park the bus
Yup lol Bronx tale.
Lmaoo classic
DeNiro is a pimp and Matt is a scum bag.
I could just see DeNiro standing over Matt's bullet ridden body and saying "see...see....didn't I tell ya not to get involved with these people?" LOL
That's right, blame Shawn. Rule #1, always blame the dead guy.
It wasn't me it was the one arm man!!
It really was the one arm man.
Crabby Old Gamer More like the seat belt man lol!
im surprised he didn't blame it on the two black guys.
"Nobody knows who stole the chicken? (gunshots) Still, nobody knows, (A boy steps up, crying) It was you. You committed this crime." "No, sir." "But you know who?" "Yes." "Who?" (Boy points to dead man) "Him!"
That soda never had the makings of a varsity soft drink
You know, I remember watching this scene and wondering whether at the time whether Tony had a conscience or not, whether he felt bad killing a weeping young guy screaming for his mother?
Then in like, season 6 when he remorselessly murders Christopher, who was way more of a son to him than his own fuckup son, and it made more sense why he could just do this.
He was not more of a son to him. Tony never would let a real son get involved in that thing of theirs.
Man the actor who played Matt is so good. He totally had this coming, but I still can't help but feel bad for him with how he delivers the line: "Thank you, T." So pathetic and weirdly innocent.
Shame his career path went a different way
its the same actor form the Bronx tale
Cologero from A Bronx Tale
Lilo Brancato. He actually has a real criminal record I believe an armed robbery charge.
@Detroit to KC just another Bronx tale
Matt: "you're gonna fuckin kill me for something I didn't do"
Matt previously: " GET THAT MOTHAFUCKA!"
Yooo 😂😂😂
Matt's a POS anyway you look at it. Just ask the cops family he mostly got away with killing! He did some time, but anyone else life.
To those who want to say "someone like Tony has a lot of balls to post videos of a illegal act such as this onto their TH-cam channel"
I'd like to remind the court that the video in question is heavily edited and should therefore be striken from evidence. There is not a single wide shot that shows the defendant, Anthony Soprano, actually shoot and kill the victim.
1:46 Tony peering out from the cigar smoke and lighter flame like the devil himself. What a beautiful shot.
I filmed that one
Yeah it was so iconic
Someone has to take that shot, sharpen the image and turn it into a frame I'll definitely buy.
I just did that
This is a classic sadistic scene.
Tony offers Matt a soda as a nice "gesture" to make him feel better and that there might be hope of his release but in reality his fate is sealed.
It’s like when Michael Corleone handed Rizzi the airplane ticket and told him he was sending him to Vegas.
Yeah and that ticket was frequent flyer miles non refundable doggone it.
not gonna lie, I would definitely prefer to die by being shot, supperless fanta in my hand, if the other option is uncle Phily being pissed that I shot his baby brother.
So, you thought Antony soprano was a good samaritan???
Sadistic is when you feel pleasure by inflicting pain…not when you give them pleasure before you give them pain, that’s called anal.
“She was an innocent creature, what did she ever do to you?”
“It was Shawn, all the way!”
"See if we got something to drink" While literally standing in the drink storage room
Says hes thirsty right after he pissed himself... good thing he didn't say he was hungry lmao
well they gave him a combo. quenched his thirst with fanta, fed him with lead, and filled him with holes.
Well played
So Tony turned the Snack Bar into a Whack bar
😂
@@swiftusmaximus3949 Ayyyyyy! 😎
“cut Furio loose. Three’s a crowd.” Love that line.
Cut Fanta loose, three’s a can.
For a second, I think Pussy thinks Tony has found him out and is going to whack him with no witnesses.
I would have like to have seen Furio interrogate Matthew.. You know Furio would have had a solid one liner to add to the scene😂
Matt: why would I want to hurt you Tony
you been like a father to me!
Tony: nobody cares
1:55 seems like a bit of a plot hole. Richie was acting like he had no idea where Matt was and/or like he ever went to him after the hit. Scenes like the hospital where he acts clueless and now Matt just admitted Richie “got mad” when he told him, therefor revealing that they actually met and had a conversation. I feel like that right there would have gotten Richie killed because he should have killed Matt upon learning that, or at least kept him inside the social club until Tony and others could arrive and take care of him.
Revealing that he and Richie met and spoke about the failed hit, even if Richie wasn’t in on it, should have been a death sentence for Richie but it somehow just got swept under the rug in the plot of the show.
To get ahead in the Mob I am going to kill a made guy, the only made guy that is sponsoring me at the moment seems like the logical choice.
@@cornusia - you know what you are right. I remember him saying he deserved getting made pointing to his stomach or something. It's been so long since I watched this great show.

Where can one by that track suit?!!Classic!
Not only was James Gandolfini an amazing actor, he was physically imposing as well.

This is how great this show was. The short clips are just as entertaining and well written as an entire episode.
@PGBlips Damn. Never noticed that. Good find!
@PGBlips Was wondering why Puss wrapped the soda can in a napkin. Thought he was just a neat freak. 😆 I wonder if someone smarter than Matt would have picked up on that and gotten clued in. I mean, there is no need to worry about your fingerprints if they were gonna let Matt loose, right?🤔
Well that makes sense because the short clips were taken from the shows, dipshit.
They offered Matthew beverage of choice, but gave him the diet sodas lying around before he could answer. He didn't even disrespect the Snack Bar either. Death row inmates are treated far more humanely.
If you were asked to provide the top 10 most intense scenes in tv history, this and the final scene at Holsteins would be on it. An absolute masterclass in tension. Gandolfini’s range from empathy to rage is astonishing.
Michael Corleone: Now, who approached
you - Tattagglia or Barzini?
Carlo: Sean did it on spec
good one!👍🏼
Nice lol🤣😂
Wait…Barzini…sounds familiar…I think I heard something about it being HIM all along…had to do with that other guy Tattagglia being a pimp or something. Sounds like Michael could have used a war-time Robert Duval.

And bought him a plane ticket
I bet that ticket was refundable.
That ran through my mind immediately, I even left the video and came back to give you due diligence. 👍
And he gave him an orange drink... which in the Godfather symbolised death...
He didn't make his sister a widow the guy who strangled him did
