While in the witness protection program in the early '80s Henry managed to get arrested in our community just east of Seattle early one morning while crawling out the broken window of a small mini-mart with a couple of bottles of wine in hand after breaking into the place. I was a detective at the time and the next day a couple of federal officers showed up at our department to let us know who Martin Lewis really was, Henry Hill. Eventually Henry got popped by our narcotics task force on a cocaine deal, go figure, and the feds finally had to relocate him. He was truly a schmuck.
@@Off_Brand_Mex Most guys in the mob were lackeys, that's kinda how it worked. Unless you were an actual Capo/Boss or some big time earner (which was rare) you were most likely living in severe poverty, usually in and out of jail for doing stupid shit like this. There's a reason gangsters don't live very long Goodfellas isn't the Godfather, the movie was about the street guys which is exactly what Henry was. Michael was basically born into mob royalty and is mostly known for white collar crimes. He was a college boy who grew up with money. Michael is the exception to the rule in every possible way while guys like Henry was the norm.
I think Franzese is kinda pompous and often exaggerates his station with the mob even more than Hill. Franzese said David Chase wanted him to consult on The Sopranos and he turned it down. I call bs
@deephouse412 Although he's not wrong about Hill I kind of agree about Franzese, I'm also not a big fan of his born again crap while also clinging to his wise guy status. I guess I just don't trust anyone who's lived that life and claims or something different than what they really are.
Ive lost count how many times Ive watched this one. More than Casino, The Godfather and Scarface. Although I wouldnt say Scarface is really a mobster movie
If this guy actually had any attention for detail, he wouldn’t have put the picture of pat the cat who was a Philly mob guy when talking about Billy batts. For years people have been using Pat the cats picture. I don’t know why but it’s not what Billy bats look like and in fact, they only found a real picture of Billy as of recent. So these dude doesn’t really have that great of attention for detail.

Yeah Michael Franzese said he was a nobody, they treated him like a lackey

@@lavonwatson8814 he's giving his perspective from somebody from that life, doesn't mean he's necessarily clinging to it.
R.I.P. Ray Liotta & Paul Sorvino
What’s up with Jo blow vids changing audio mid video
“Goodfellows” was one of my favorite mob movies.
It's amazing
The point shaving scandal was eliminated from the movie because it was an active criminal case.

Why I don't watch new movies... I'd rather watch Goodfellas for the 1,754,885,005th time
@2:10 "Henry's no near that" 😆🤣😭 oh this ought to be good! He's already telling the truth😂
Joe Pescis character was downplayed, what? That mustve been one horrible person
Best mob movie of all time
If you owned a Goodfellas VHS & the double VHS Casino , your a legend 🤜
That makes me a legend then
I appreciate the attention to detail with your closing credits roll for this video.

I heard the Spider story wasn't true.
I always wondered why Deniro poured ketchup like he did inthe scene at Tommy's Mother' house.
Hill was never more than an associate ,with a drug problem he was not high in mob food chain
The Irishman became a sad footnote in Scorses's career
Agreeed. The movie was boring and the de-aging CGI was FVCKING ATROCIOUS 🤮
Wrong Billy Bats pic!
(I think that’s Joey The Cat)
7:45 - it's not Billy Batts on that photo. There is no known (and real) photo of Billy
3:16 the real Tommy was a little older it’s a channel name Brazen Breeds dug up information on the real Tommy
No 'Go Get You Some'?
Jesus! The editing is ATROCIOUS for this! What happened??
The actually spoke to the mafia about details so they could make it as real as possible
Frank Cullotta was an advisor on the film.
Great movie in my top 5
