RIP Burt Young. The range of characters he could play from the down on his luck drunk in Rocky, to the old but still deadly gangster in The Sopranos, will always be impressive.
The Sopranos did a great job of showing how fights to the death aren't flashy or cinematic its just pure desperation and will. This one was great and so was the Tony-Ralphie fight.
They're realistic as shit, they never play dramatic music when someone dies, it's just pure silence and character dialogue. Just like when Chris and Paulie whack Mikey Palmice
You are so right. There was nothing cinematic or balletic - shown in slo-mo - about the murders on this show. They were dirty and ugly and excruciating, the way they should be shown. I've always appreciated that.
His cough is so realistic, that always when I'm watching this scene, I can't help, but have this weird feeling in my lungs. One of the greatest scenes from whole series.
Yep, we all been there in terms of having some bad cold or flu & coughing so much until our chest hurt while our throat fills up with disgusting phlegm. It's literally one of the best feelings in the world when you get well again.
"Tell Tony it will never happen again, or if it does, I'll at least yell 'fore' next time." If there was any bit of guilt going through Bobby Sr's mind, it was gone after that remark.
True he didnt like the comment. But it didnt matter anyway. The order was given and the contract was accepted and nothing he could have said would make it better or worse.
BEST KILL in the entire series! The sadistic look on Burt Young’s face after the hit was so intense and real. An old con getting the taste of blood one more time. Pure evil. Pure madness. Loved it.
Can't call it evil. He was killing someone who actually WAS evil and deserved what he got. Did anyone NOT enjoy seeing Sally get his? The look in his face was one of virility. Of primal victory. An old, dying man who felt that strength surge one last time. That's what the cigarette was for. He went toe-to-toe one last time and took down the younger bucks. It was a last taste of his youth, his strength, his power. He died smiling with the adrenalin still coursing through his veins. His was a good death.
Bobby Sr was only in the series briefly but he was one of my favorite parts, it was cosmic gold how he managed to overpower two healthy young men while being just days away from dying of cancer, finally get that rush he missed for years, only to smoke one last cigarette and die 15 minutes later behind the wheel of his car
Mustang's instincts are there-his 'Danger' alarm is going off when he turns around and asks if Bobby's alright but he's too overwhelmed with relief at the 'pass'. It's like Henry Hill said in 'Goodfellas', your killers come with smiles on their faces.
Burt Young made those coughs so disturbingly realistic. I live with a lifelong smoker and every time you hear one of those coughing fits, it’s just awful.
He's from the "method acting" era so it wouldn't surprise me that between takes, he was actually inhaling either smoke or something else to induce heavy coughing. If he's doing it just out of acting skills, my hat's off to him because my chest hurts every time I see this scene.
It's amazing how, in just the few scenes at the end of his character's life, it feels like we come out of the end knowing Bobby Sr's entire life story. Like, you can just assume everything about him and what kind of man he is just from the, what, three or four scenes he's in? That's the real strength of the Sopranos, that all these people feel like they have stories even if they don't have a lot of screentime.
Bravo. As an asthmatic that used to smoke (yeah, stupid), I can honestly say nearly every film ever that tries to portray a person gasping for air misses by a mile. This guy nails it.
@@brianwells4507 People make stupid ass decisions when they panic or get shocked lol yeah the smart thing to do was to shut up and try get out but leaving your friend to get murdered is kind of fucked up too.

"Or if it does I'll at least yell 'Fore!' next time." The look Bobby Sr gives him is great, it's like this line convinced him Sal was all bullshit and had to go.
im surprised we dont see more people talk about the sadistic/insane laugh and facial expression Bobby Sr does after shooting the guy through the chair, he genuinely enjoyed it very much
The scene was pretty well done. And yes having been around people with advanced pulmonary disease, he was scary and sadly spot on with his facials. In reality, he wouldnt have had the cardio to support that seemingly small exertion. O2 is what fuels our furnaces so to speak. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell... as the saying goes, but oxygen is what we pay the power bill with. Maybe if he was on betablockers and doubled up his does to prevent a heart rate spike, but otherwise he would have folded in real life. That shit is no joke when your lungs arent working 10% reduction in volume and efficiency is hug it will change your world. And hes way past that. But artistic license. Like pitch meetings says, so the movie can happen.
I seriously can't believe Burt didn't win an Emmy for this. I honestly believe that he deliberately contracted pneumonia just to film this scene. There's no way anybody can act like they are sick like this.
And this is one of the greats this guy... I can't act but I'm pretty sure I could fake a cough ... lung cancer... the plague I got plenty of practice as a kid being fake sick ... I can def do that shit for $$
@@jasewildheart Nope. The sopranos is my favorite series. I Just thought the way Bacalas character ended up killing his nephew was perfectly brutal. Still the best hit in the show.
What a terrific performance from Burt young (better known as paulie in Rocky saga) ! You almost feel the pain with each breath he takes and the ecstasy of a draw from a Marlboro! Nice work Burt.
@Christopher Briscoe he was also obsessed with death in a weird way. It became obvious when he was seeing faces of death with Janice and he knew what part came next
yea, they should have done a bit more with him, filmed in his little bodega, had Jackie Jr. disrespect the heck out of it. Chris should've been given his soft drinks of choice as tribute too.
Uncle Bobby went out in a true blaze of glory mafia style. It was a good death for the character and Burt Young was amazing in this. One of the best one and done or short appearances on the show.
Damn, that was some fine acting. I seriously believed Bobby Sr. at every minute with his coughing and wheezing, yet he's still strong enough to fight that guy on the table and finish off the guy hiding behind the chair. Excellent work. Such is the plight of a working man, working until his last breath, even if his job is killing people.
Loved this episode. Between this scene, bacala sr’s coughing and the car accident, this was definitely one of the most brutal episodes in the whole series
Kudos to the sound design team. You have no idea how many layers of sound you just listened to. Terry Thomas Director of Photography Atlanta, Georgia USA
When he said "It won't happen again I swear. And if it does, at least next time I'll yell "fore!" or something, huh?" the look Bobby Sr. gives him is that he instantly knows not only that it was bound to happen again, but that killing him is the right call.
Well, the first bullet still went into his head & brain didn't it? It just did not do enough damage to kill him or incapacitate him completely on the spot, but maybe it still did enough damage to his brain or maybe cerebellum to make him a lot weaker, so he was struggling to overpower the old man and tried to reach for his own gun instead. That's what I am thinking at least.
@@ll2240 Having his ear shot off still would have caused a lot of shock and panic. A friend's uncle dropped a hammer action 12 bore (gauge) shotgun into a metal gate, one of the hammers caught and one barrel discharged - it blew his ear clean off! He did not like the experience!
The desperation in the Hispanic character was brilliant, trying to cover himself with a chair for some sort of protection from the bullet knowing it won’t work
Baccala/Mustang Sally and Tony/Ralphie are the 2 best kills in the series. No glamorizing the violence or cinematic endings, just primal urges to kill/live
I never really understood if Bobby was acting or if he was really sick. However, this is still one of the most insane storylines in The Sopranos. The death and murder that take place in these few episodes is truly stunning.
This scene was filmed so well. so tense, thinking Bobby Senior is gonna accidentally fumble and drop the gun, and fudge the hit, etc. So much tension in this scene. I was on the edge of my seat and had to pause it to soak up the excitement/fear
That maniacal laugh after killing Sally's buddy is horrifying 🤣 Also, it's hilarious when Sally's buddy picks up the chair. Like that was gonna do anything lol ALSO ALSO , it's hilarious that the first thing Bobby Sr. does after killing them both is grab a cigarette 😂 *For anyone who isn't aware; Burt Young , the actor who portrayed Bobby Sr, passed away back in October (2023)
It's human instinct to want to shield yourself from a life threatening attack. If there was no chair, he would probably use his hands in a way to shield himself. Which also wouldn't do anything but prolong his suffering. Tbh it was prob just a lot cheaper to use a chair for the effect.
the look that bobby sr. gives sally's friend from 0:24-0:26......it's like "i wasn't necessarily gonna take pleasure in having to kill you to cover my tracks, but now i definitely will".
I love the look of shock he has at 2:25 when he starts running towards him, the way he tries to catch his breath, and coughs at 2:44-2:50 (paper falls down behind his head in sync with his coughing), and how he coughs, and that menacing look on his face at 3:14 after he kills the guy, then quickly looks down. It’s the little details that make this scene absolutely hilarious 🤣
I love how Bobby Sr stops coughing and speaks clearly as he prepares to make the hit. Like he’s given one more chance to return to the glory days.
Word up, and Ice cold how he smiles on the way out to drive feeling like he was useful once again. Not an ounce of remorse.

Desperation, will and a fuck load of coughing.
They're realistic as shit, they never play dramatic music when someone dies, it's just pure silence and character dialogue. Just like when Chris and Paulie whack Mikey Palmice
thats why this scene reminds me of the godfather
You are so right. There was nothing cinematic or balletic - shown in slo-mo - about the murders on this show. They were dirty and ugly and excruciating, the way they should be shown. I've always appreciated that.
It won't be cinematic.
I absoloutely love this scene. The way he goes from a coughing old man to quiet cold killer is done so well.
Never noticed the detail until now thanks👍
@From the Shadows Emerges... did you notice he stopped coughing when he decided it was time to kill him? That is what i meant by quiet.
Killer mode activated
And then smokes his last cigarette. LOL
I had that same cough tbh when I had COVID. The coughing spasms were evil. Great acting..
Burt Young was 83, a fucking kid.

@@aidanoneill3730 Only thing more dangerous than his strength are his stories, he could put you to sleep with one of those
@@skullthrower8904 you talking about Feech?
@@aidanoneill3730 Yes
Sr was a total monster compared to his son, matter fact Bobby Jr might be the only likeable person on this whole show
Aide was a very likeable person too.
@@heroedeleyenda05 Ralphie also in a weird way. Not talking his actions good but he stole every scene with his jokes and charisma lol
@@tonylovesducks2501 youre a sociopath
@@heroedeleyenda05 lmaaaaooo
@Christopher Briscoe he was also obsessed with death in a weird way. It became obvious when he was seeing faces of death with Janice and he knew what part came next
This is some seriously good acting. The way he tries to control his cough after he hit that cigarette is so believable
Watching him take a pull from that cigarette in the shape he's in made my lungs ache
Burt is a damn good actor.
I get an asthma attack just by listening to him
Carlo reverting to a child-like state begging for his life was morbid as hell.
4 real
"YE HEH HEHHH"
Realistic
@@noahboat580 heh heh heh. heh.
Made the kill more enjoyable for old man baccala too.
Burt Young carries this hit scene. One of the best of the entire series.
He was always great to watch.Totally convincing
He is a master.
One of my favorites
Epic scene
I just learnt through TH-cam of Burt Young's passing and came back to watch this scene. Great acting!
His face after he lights it up and takes a drag,fckn priceless.
I’ve never smoked in my life !!!
Makes me actually wonder , after this scene - have I missed out on something ?
Bla ha ha !!!!!
@@rudeawakening3833 Don't smoke lmao it ain't worth it
His cough hurts me
pussy
Jaime Olivera your mom probably is tho
Nate Ward Shut the fuck up
Thats the realest cough Ive ever heard
Burt Young doesn't play around!
I really liked Fucking Greaseball You, I wish they did more with his character.
yea, they should have done a bit more with him, filmed in his little bodega, had Jackie Jr. disrespect the heck out of it. Chris should've been given his soft drinks of choice as tribute too.
Lol
LMFAO, LMFAO
I also wanted to see a few episodes with The Lady Whose House It Is.
@@sskumariyer I liked the chair as well .It had good style as a shield
Sally and his sidekick snickered behind uncle Bobby’s back like he deserved no respect. They had no idea they’re were staring death in the face
I love the grunting at 3:23. Makes it sound so real.
I wish they had more scenes with Bobby Sr
As a former smoker, I could feel how much he enjoyed that celebratory cig
As a current smoker I agree with your statement
It would be like an after sex or food smoke
😂
@@Thefunkywormthose cigarettes after a big meal are the best desserts.
Uncle Bobby went out in a true blaze of glory mafia style. It was a good death for the character and Burt Young was amazing in this. One of the best one and done or short appearances on the show.
0:41 notice how Sally is trying not to smile, what a sadistic bastard.
I wanted to see the Robot from Rocky V make a cameo during the struggle
Spookrockcity or his apron from the meat plant hanging in the kitchen.
The robot was in Rocky IV.

Underrated comment 😂😂😂
Bacala Sr. really was the Terminator!)
Seriously. Bacala Sr. was the OG from hell and this clip proves it!
Damn, that was some fine acting. I seriously believed Bobby Sr. at every minute with his coughing and wheezing, yet he's still strong enough to fight that guy on the table and finish off the guy hiding behind the chair. Excellent work. Such is the plight of a working man, working until his last breath, even if his job is killing people.
doing a quick redec for the owner..!
RIP Burt Young. I loved his roles and uncle paulie and Bobby Bacala Sr.
Loved this episode. Between this scene, bacala sr’s coughing and the car accident, this was definitely one of the most brutal episodes in the whole series
Burt Young absolutely killed this character. The coughing is so realistic
Love the way he says "c'man.. c'man... anymore smart remarks??"
Ya f**** grease ball ya 😂😂
I love the acting choice that Burt made @3:07 with him being so gitty and happy
Kudos to the sound design team. You have no idea how many layers of sound you just listened to.

When he said "It won't happen again I swear. And if it does, at least next time I'll yell "fore!" or something, huh?" the look Bobby Sr. gives him is that he instantly knows not only that it was bound to happen again, but that killing him is the right call.
01:48 Famous last words to killer before being shot:
“Are you all right?”
As a person who has suffered from respiratory problems I can say that this is truly great acting
Why did mustang sally, go for his gun? He couldn’t overpower a terminally ill senior citizen with both hands?
Well, the first bullet still went into his head & brain didn't it? It just did not do enough damage to kill him or incapacitate him completely on the spot, but maybe it still did enough damage to his brain or maybe cerebellum to make him a lot weaker, so he was struggling to overpower the old man and tried to reach for his own gun instead. That's what I am thinking at least.
@@jacobski7216 no. Clipped his ear off
@@ll2240 Having his ear shot off still would have caused a lot of shock and panic.
A friend's uncle dropped a hammer action 12 bore (gauge) shotgun into a metal gate, one of the hammers caught and one barrel discharged - it blew his ear clean off! He did not like the experience!
Being Sonny Reds Son, I expected more from a Bonanno.
@@powertrioagency5795 I agree but I suspect that Bruno only had his place in the family because of his dad.
The desperation in the Hispanic character was brilliant, trying to cover himself with a chair for some sort of protection from the bullet knowing it won’t work
3:13 I wish they would’ve done more with that chair who got whacked, my fav character
That chair had the makings of a Varsity Ass Cushion
Classic line
One of the best acted scenes in the Sopranos… Burt Young did so many small things that added so much to the character
Screen presence fantastic. Correct
Baccala/Mustang Sally and Tony/Ralphie are the 2 best kills in the series. No glamorizing the violence or cinematic endings, just primal urges to kill/live
I never really understood if Bobby was acting or if he was really sick. However, this is still one of the most insane storylines in The Sopranos. The death and murder that take place in these few episodes is truly stunning.
Him coughing in the car and at the end didn't tip you off? The mention that he had cancer during the show? Did you even watch it?
@@bllasaehe probably meant if the actor was sick in real life
@@chriszaddack3812 Obvious to some of us.
an OG with nothin' to lose. respect.
This scene was filmed so well. so tense, thinking Bobby Senior is gonna accidentally fumble and drop the gun, and fudge the hit, etc. So much tension in this scene. I was on the edge of my seat and had to pause it to soak up the excitement/fear
Bobby Bacala was such a badass that he killed two guys half his age, while battling, and later losing with cancer. Talk about a legend...
That’s some 10/10 acting right there. The way he made the cough sounded like complete suffering.
3:13 That weezy laugh always gets me, like he's thinking "Yeah, I'm still a bad ass."
That maniacal laugh after killing Sally's buddy is horrifying 🤣
Also, it's hilarious when Sally's buddy picks up the chair. Like that was gonna do anything lol
ALSO ALSO , it's hilarious that the first thing Bobby Sr. does after killing them both is grab a cigarette 😂
*For anyone who isn't aware; Burt Young , the actor who portrayed Bobby Sr, passed away back in October (2023)
It's human instinct to want to shield yourself from a life threatening attack. If there was no chair, he would probably use his hands in a way to shield himself. Which also wouldn't do anything but prolong his suffering. Tbh it was prob just a lot cheaper to use a chair for the effect.
@@MarkCactus59 You're probably right about that. It's still hilarious though 🤣
The end of this scene with him making all those noises and waving his arms around always cracks me up
the look that bobby sr. gives sally's friend from 0:24-0:26......it's like "i wasn't necessarily gonna take pleasure in having to kill you to cover my tracks, but now i definitely will".
I love how I can search for "sopranos scene where they sent an old man to kill that guy" and YT immediately brings me the correct result.
I love the look of shock he has at 2:25 when he starts running towards him, the way he tries to catch his breath, and coughs at 2:44-2:50 (paper falls down behind his head in sync with his coughing), and how he coughs, and that menacing look on his face at 3:14 after he kills the guy, then quickly looks down. It’s the little details that make this scene absolutely hilarious 🤣
I knew this guy could act more than he did in Rocky...respect !
Besides Ralph and Richie, this was by far one of the most satisfying deaths in the entire series!
Had to love Richie, though.
Facts.
@@dodgelogical4076 tremendous moxie for his size

That laugh of pure satisfaction xd
