Can't believe Scorsese made this during his NYU days. It shows even then that he was destined to be something, and what was come in the many years to come! Love the song and seeing Harvey Keitel at such a young age. Just shows you gotta start somewhere!
Terrific scene in a brutally, wonderful film debut. A 25 year-old Martin Scorsese fuses pop songs and images in a film 2 years before 'Easy Rider.' And Scorsese's choices are all GOOD. I absolutely loved his series documentary about blues music.
Aspiring filmmakers take note: all your favorite directors were using the same techniques in their first films that they used later in their careers, so there are a lot of cool things you can do even with a shoe string budget.
Not same techniques. Most film directors experiment with everything, keeping an open tech mind, though little ‘tech-spectacle’ making it thru their final cut. What’s there all along is theme, an internal theme playing independently of the story, which is pertinent to the authorship, indeed a trace proving authenticity.

It's amazing how everything works and the music is awesome. I love the moment when the guy blows smoke into his glass a moment before he drinks it. Moments like that cant be story boarded, you catch them when the setup is good. It's wild how a mood can change in an instant. Welcome to New York boys!
There is another vid of this with "I Get Around" by The Beach Boys playing along with it. Supposedly thats what Scorsese originally wanted to use with the scene, but "El Watusi" is just perfect.
I like this video a LOT!! I was able to take a good look at Mr. Keitel. He is very handsome.... :) The song is great!! It makes the scene look vivid and funny.
@@bencheshire It came in the late 70's if the book I was reading was correct. He was barely out of film school when he made this. He couldn't even have afforded a blow addiction if he wanted one lmao.
Oh snap! He plays Gaga! Awesome, that sucks about how they had a falling out, Gaga was defiantly a great character, much like all the characters in this film
it was like Scorsese was stylizing violence, the fascination with that life manifested itself in his future films. who else was doing this in the late 60's?
Clásico... todos los ambientes mafiosos del mundo se cocinan, transcurren así en el desparpajo y la jala jala de doble cara burguesa. Que gran Filme... Inmortal.
I've read that Scorsese has a cameo in this film, does anyone know if he's one of the background actors in this scene? Or is his cameo somewhere else in the movie?
I can'i grasp what's happening over the film..everyone's busy praising scorsese,that's fine but what for..What is this film talking about.Bunch of gangsters partying and one turned out wild all of a sudden..is it that?? if so,so what??? how's this interesting
@Pizon Wow! That's pretty cool. Did your father tell you more about Scorsese? I'm really interested on him since he is my fav director. I aspire to be a filmmaker as good as him.

He redid the scene in Wolf of Wall Street. With a different latin song.

Great Movie. Love the classics and I love this song!
This could be Scorsese's best montage to this day.
I cant believe how old are you today.
More than me
One of my favourite scenes period
Scorsese defined his future in these first four minutes of his first film.
It's amazing how everything works and the music is awesome. I love the moment when the guy blows smoke into his glass a moment before he drinks it. Moments like that cant be story boarded, you catch them when the setup is good.
It's wild how a mood can change in an instant. Welcome to New York boys!
wow this is innovative even for a late 60s film
I just finished watching this movie and its brilliant. all the scenes just flow into each other.
where did u watch it?
@@felixin0_ I can’t remember I think it was on Netflix 2 years ago
God dam Harvey Keitel looks like a kid in this movie.
Tarenteno takes notes on scorsese
Scorsese is the dude rubbing his nose at the beginning.
I didn't noticed ...👍
it's cocaine
Thanks for this post!
Amazing! this is a fuckin' great pill of great Scorsese!
you can really see how Raging Bull comes out of this imagery.
There is another vid of this with "I Get Around" by The Beach Boys playing along with it. Supposedly thats what Scorsese originally wanted to use with the scene, but "El Watusi" is just perfect.
director's first choices for sings in movie scenes are always shit. why?
@@plasticweapon It's like a first draft. You have to go back and edit and refine until you've got something special
finally, somebody uploads this scene with it's actual score, not "i get around".
I like this video a LOT!! I was able to take a good look at Mr. Keitel.
He is very handsome.... :) The song is great!! It makes the scene look vivid and funny.
MARTIN, WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU EATING?
*itsa cinnamon bun*
American Legend ..Martin Scorsese ....One take..
Scorsese at the beginning, rubbing his nose?
Coke-head at this stage I believe.

El Watusi....by Ray Barreto....BORIIICUAAA
it was like Scorsese was stylizing violence, the fascination with that life manifested itself in his future films. who else was doing this in the late 60's?
Clásico... todos los ambientes mafiosos del mundo se cocinan, transcurren así en el desparpajo y la jala jala de doble cara burguesa. Que gran Filme... Inmortal.
Yeah, this is definitively Scorsese !
not the last time Scorsese uses a Ray Barreto song in his movie. You can hear some Barreto in Mean Streets !
I saw Scorsese at the start, or his body double in this clip. I'm positive I briefly worked for him in the seventies.
Thats soo cool sir
- Love that Bugalu!
Not an Italian song at all -- sung by Puerto Rican Ray Barretto.
Italian only soundtracks have never been a Scorsese thing.
It's Cuban music
Ya’ll feel this inspired the opening to Reservoir Dogs??
I wanna hook this scene up on a drip into my veins
I've read that Scorsese has a cameo in this film, does anyone know if he's one of the background actors in this scene? Or is his cameo somewhere else in the movie?
Woah.
where can i watch this full film
Congratulations well done...Oh grandpa
What is the name of this music!?
@Roberthenryii
I take notes on scorsese. I think every filmmaker takes notes from the master
el watusi, ray barretto
Awesome Handsome
you know you missed out on alot when this youtube video itself was released 10 years ago
Wise guy I strongly agree
What's the name of the song??
When a gun comes out ... You leave!!!! -Jeep-USN. Ret.-
which one?
Lol towards the end the song translates to "Gentlemen! You dare to fight Watusi??? Uh-uh!....Well why not?....7 feet big and tall, also ugly"
how old is Harvey in this movie?
@afr malatesta 26..
may be Ray Baretto singing
2:40😂😂
De Palma used this song in Carlito's Way, right?
Yes it is and if I'm not mistaken wolf of wall street too
das anyone knows where i can si this movie?? i need to see with subtitles in spanishhh, tnks
It had a DVD release from Warner Brothers, so commercial copies are out there; I own it.
Didn't he use this I. Wolf of wall street
Never saw anything good about it maybe I missed something? , I watched it years ago, I'll watch it again to see if I come to the same conclusion.
your dad is f*ckin' cool
@MrRamirez787 dude hav made any movies as filmmaker ?
This scene is definitely based on Fellini's LA DOLCE VITA.
WATUSI DE RAY BARRETO
what's the name of the song
El Watusi - Ray Barretto
Is this funny? Funny how?
jorge garcia X like i am a clown like i amuse you i dont know you tell me how the fuck am i funny
@@AA-sn9lz
I love you both. That is all.
@@kevlow9494 man, I commented that a year ago!!! Time flies
it's not a comedy its a romantic drama wdym
@@mulethedonkey2579 Goodfellas reference :P
Great movie but sometimes i wonder what its about
people who get bored, a guy hesitating between being a gangster and having a normal life, having your first love with the weight of religion etc
Homies drinking, smoking ciggs, playing with Guns fuck my teenager year's we're the shit..
Too Gangster..
dafuq did I just watch
just the boys.
@@michaelmeza1913 💪🇮🇹🇺🇸
love this movie. love the porn scenes XD
Took a dare and lost.
Headache 30 seconds into this fuck fest
I can'i grasp what's happening over the film..everyone's busy praising scorsese,that's fine but what for..What is this film talking about.Bunch of gangsters partying and one turned out wild all of a sudden..is it that?? if so,so what??? how's this interesting
go back to sleep.
this sucks.
Marty, stop making Hollywood shit. Time to get back to your film art roots.
Have you seen Silence?
One of my favorite Scorsese films liked this more then wolf of wall street by a mile, maybe not a better film but I liked it a lot more.
@Pizon Wow! That's pretty cool. Did your father tell you more about Scorsese? I'm really interested on him since he is my fav director. I aspire to be a filmmaker as good as him.
