That opening wide shot of the boys walking with the Manhattan bridge in the background has got to be one of the most beautiful composed shots in cinematic history!
Every scene in this movie is the best scene. Poor Leone, died thinking that his true vision for the movie would never see the light of day, after the studios massacred the theater release version. RIP to one of the greatest cinematic minds ever, and RIP to you to maestro Morricone.
His true vision still hasn't seen the light of day. He shot over.10 hours of footage and wanted to release two, three hour movies. Over half of his film has never been seen.
@@DocWattson it would have been a great trilogy, worthy of the godfather, maybe even better, and we would have seen a great Joe Pesci as a villain. today the public wants and appreciates the trilogies, but at the time it was a gamble and the producers didn't have the courage. from 10 hours to 3 hours, a massacred storyline. and despite everything it is a masterpiece.
@@emanueletondo2510 He was originally approached to direct The Godfather but turned it down, which he regretted. This may have prompted him to make this movie. He also cut the movie down himself to his originally intended six hour cut.
Those camera shots are my favorite of any film. This scene and the scene where noodles go to prison, show how massive the architecture really is in new york
SHORT HISTORY OF A DISASTER the original Leone movie was a total of 6 hours, which the director wanted to divide into two films of 3 hours each. Joe Pesci would be the villain protagonist (while with all the cuts it boils down to an extra) and we would have a two-part gangster movie as the godfather at the time. but unfortunately the producer did not have courage. Leone was forced to cut and submit a single 4 and a half hour film, but was again forced to cut, up to 3 hours and 40 minutes. he practically cut one of the two original films entirely. 3 hours and 40 minutes was the duration of the film in European cinemas, while in America the producer cut (unbeknownst to Leone) up to 2 hours and 20 minutes, and with the chronological sequence instead of the flashbacks! a resounding disaster. today the film has been restored in Italy and the blu-ray version is 4 hours (European version + 20 minutes of cut scenes). martin scorsese has announced that he will try to solve the problems related to the rights in order to publish the second original version of leone, the one for 4 and a half hours. unfortunately the hour and a half in which the bad character of joe pesci was built is lost forever.
That’s why we don’t see Joe Pesci after he was in the hospital. It was odd just finishing his character like that. Plus remember the frisbee thrown at De Niro 1968 scene, that was weird. The extra scenes would explain that.
I actually live in this neighbourhood. I live on the street with the Manhattan bridge and I pass through that archway all the time. It's changed a lot...
@@michaelc.6532 Nice of u to ask. I went up in late November but the temp dropped and the wind made it all wicked and cold. I'll tr again in April. Not a total bust... Fell hard for a waitress just before catching the bus at The Port Auth.
@lucasamtab if you were kind of a scumbag when you were a kid it hits harder, I know I was a street rat, luckily I didn't age as a hoodlum like they do in the movie
Those films are more Hollywood friendly, this is 1 of the most graphic films Iv ever seen in terms of sexual violence and sheer brutality, amazing film
Godfather is too slow and i've never got to finish it, i wonder how i got to finish this 3 hour epic. Maybe it's because it was directed by the legendary Sergio Leone.
there was a whole other movie basically where joe pescis character goes bad and becomes the main villain. but it’s gone forever along with a lot of the original film😥
There was more of the child hood scenes in the lost long version. I believe there was a scene where Max and Noodles rat on Bugsy which gets him imprisoned for sometime until he surprisingly gets out which is this scene.
Sometimes, longer is not better. There is a form of elegance in giving you just the exact amount you need. It's like food. More is not always better. Look at the tv shows, it's the same thing.
When I was around 13 I walked into my big brothers room who was 18 and the strongest person in my eyes and he was crying as this scene was on and he tried to wipe his tears as I walked into his room he said get out lol. I’ll always remember that.
@@DosisKafkiana - It's a little under 4. I used to have it on tape, but I got rid of all of my tapes years ago. I think that there is also a FINALIZED cut, that might have had some cut scenes!
@@hipsterelephant2660 - The one that runs about 4 . If it was released in 2014, that is it.. Is it the FINAL version? Is that the entire length of the movie, or is there an even longer version?
This scene puts everything into perspective, they're kids stepping into something huge. You have light-hearted music played by cockeye as their walking past mammoth structures, Dominic is in the front skipping. They're wearing their fancy clothes they bought after getting paid by the mobsters. As soon as they see Bugsey they run and the rest follows.
This may be the closest realization of a dream committed to film; it’s alternately violent, beautiful, sentimental, hazy and almost entirely otherworldly and incoherent, but you don’t want to awaken from it.
It is a dream. Deniro's character dreaming high on opiates before getting killed. Leone messed up by hiding Deniro's character dies in the 1930's by those mobsters in the beginning. (Hints -1960's NY still looking like 1930's, Debra still looking young, etc). Producers wanted a scene to explain this but Leone said nope and confused a lot of viewers.
Я буквально физически не могу смотреть и слушать эту сцену. Просто не могу, меня раздирает изнутр и слезы сами текут. Фильм и музыка - это просто топ мировые шедевры.
Spot on always makes me cry . Love this film but would be nothing without the Amazing music. I cried when I heard that great man died not so long ago either. Watching those boys reminds me of my own sons and my childhood friends. 😢❤😢

What use to be called the hell hole or the ass end of Brooklyn… is now a hipster picturesque hangout…. Go figured that out? Back when I was kid…. If you worked in the factories and warehouses on the east river water front in Williamsburg/Greenpoint that meant you were either a union worker or a gangster. Now it’s all brunch spots and condos….
I still remember when I was watching this movie, 5 years ago at 04:00 am , I was at home by myself, it was incredible experience, still feel emotional every time I see this scene, it reminds me of old good days, the days when I still in university
Absolutely right! My favorite is Noodles drive into jail while his friends are watching him in front of a giant brick wall and wave goodbye,looking like little boys,not gangsters.
I don't know how Dumbo looked in the 80s, but I imagine it had to be the last decade anyone could've filmed this scene and make it feel as authentic as it could for a timepiece set 50 years earlier. This is scene and shot is so iconic, but no way they can shoot this now without CGI.
I used to have a very large book of photos from this movie. Does anyone know if these buildings under the bridge are still there? I was amazed Leone was able to make NY look like the 1910s even though he shot it in the 80s. Also, you have to give credit to Ennio. Without his score, this scene wouldn't be nearly as moving.
@@lukkkasz323 I would have agreed 10 years ago, but shit i have seen since have turned me over to the side that not everything need to be in cinema just for the sake of it. There is a reason why post WW2 people didn't have the stomach for such television, because they have lived it, trauma and all that. When you see Women and Kids being dragged up by wires to lamposts by Soviet Troops, if you have any humanity in you, that might destroy the innocence within and once gone, it will never come back so it is precious.
[BOYZ N THE HOOD SPOILERS] First time I saw this scene, I immediately assumed J. Singleton shot Ricky’s death scene in BITH the way he did to make a hommage to this movie, but searching online after finishing the viewing, I found nobody who came to the same conclusion. It seems obvious for me tho, anyone shared the same thought? Plus the message in both movies are kind of similar: in both the characters grew up in american hoods, and in both we see that choosing the life of crime in order to elevate yourself always ends up in tragedy (Ricky’s murderers and Doughboy in BITH, the whole cast in OUATIA)
Of course,I watched this movie and I listened book too,and this scene so sad,a poor child,and music of Ennio Marrikone exiting, Best regards, Askar Makhamov, Republic of KAZAKHSTAN 🇰🇿, Almaty City
I love movies and there aren't many better than this one. For me a good movie isn't about how true to life it is, it's about providing an escape from reality - the film is superb. I can't describe fully, but movies from the past were somehow more stylish, classy and resonated with people than the films of today. I think the last 'new' film I saw was joker, 2019 - tbf very good ( for a modern movie) ! 😊
Sergio leone, tonino delli colli, carlo simi, nino baragli, robert de niro, ,ennio morricone, burt young, james woods, professionalism at his best in this movie.
You can tell these little kids are nothing but trouble. They look way too young to not be wearing short pants. The long pants and trench coats signal nothing but young hoods instead of harmless street kids

So unfortunate. What a great film
So the 3hr 50min version of the film is the third longest version of the film, WOWZAA!
I have watched the 3:50:00 1
I watched this when I was a kid cos my dad had it on a tape and it was for about 5 hours long so iv seen most of it

They did. There's a 4 hour restoration version.
This is the greatest movie of all time, I’m surprised this isn’t brought up as much as goodfellas or The Godfather this film is better than both.
Fact
Those films are more Hollywood friendly, this is 1 of the most graphic films Iv ever seen in terms of sexual violence and sheer brutality, amazing film
I absolutely agree with this comment in every way. And this comes from a big Godfather fan.
And scarface... all together can't get close to it
Godfather is too slow and i've never got to finish it, i wonder how i got to finish this 3 hour epic. Maybe it's because it was directed by the legendary Sergio Leone.
I've seen this movie so many times and I never get bored of any scene. Best movie ever.
Same here. But i have watched it repeatedly few days after the last time I watched it.
I just can't get enough of that scene....noodles I slipped..😔
😪
Even then, Leone's final product of the film was a total of 8hrs. Just imagine what all that footage and character development might contain.
there was a whole other movie basically where joe pescis character goes bad and becomes the main villain. but it’s gone forever along with a lot of the original film😥
Yeah that's too much
