Learning that garlic doesn’t actually liquify in a pan by adding oil is the adult equivalent of learning Santa isnt real

Way better than eating grill cheese off the radiator

I always love his comment about the medium rare steak "Medium rare, mmm, an aristocrat"

"Tomorrow we eat sangwiches, you gotta go on a diet Vinny" is my favourite line in cinema

"How do you like your steak?" I like mine with cigar ashes on it.

FUN FACT: Vinnie was played by Charles Scorsese, Martin’s father. Catherine Scorsese, Martin’s mom, also appeared in the film as Tommy DeVito’s mother. Both characters had improvised lines mainly because mom kept forgetting hers

"I didn't put too much onions, Vin...uh, Paul. Three small onions. That's all I did." I always loved how Martin Scorcese's father sounds like he's messing up the names and starts calling Paul by his own character's name 😁

These guys are eating better in prison than I do on any regular day on the outs

There's something so satisfying about watching him slice that garlic.

I love the shot of Paulie sitting at the table listening and drinking. The way he’s a little fed up with listening to their bullshit stories …

Personal theory is that the “garlic trick” is Paulie’s way of getting out of any actual work in the kitchen since it’s time consuming and doesn’t really do anything

They ate better than most people on the outside!

“Vinnie, don’t put too many onions in the sauce…” R.I.P. Paul Sorvino

Rip to everyone in this scene❤

Medium rare, huh? An aristocrat.

RIP Pauly. You never allowed too many onions in any sauce!

That garlic slicing technique is forever etched in my mind. "The pork - that's the flavor!". I just love the mastery they have of making their food and the pride they take in it.

I love the fact Scorsese put Frank Pellegrino - a part-time actor and a full-time restaurateur, to cook the steak. I wonder if actually ended up cooking for the crew.

My favorite line is when Johnny Deo replies, “Medium rare? Mmm…an aristocrat “

One thing I love about gangster films is the way they show how to prepare and enjoy food. GoodFellas and the three Godfathers do a great job with this - bravissimo!

It really sucks knowing that all of these actors have sadly passed away.

5 hours later Pauly just got done slicing one clove of garlic

I love how the wine takes precedence over the scotch. Wine completes EVERYTHING.

I just love the camaraderie of cooking a meal together and then sitting down to eat it in this scene.

you gotta have the pork that’s the flavor will forever occupy space in my mind

They never ate like this in Prison. Several mobsters have said this scene is BS. It's still a good movie scene though.

You gotta have the pork! That's the flavor!

RIP boys. Paulie, Vinnie, Johnny Dio, and of course Henry Hill actors have all passed away.

I just love that everyone has a big job - someone cooks steaks, someone makes the sauce, or gets all the "groceries". And then there is Paulie who just sits and cuts his garlic, a kind of "participation award" job

I just finished some spaghetti with meat balls and sausage by watching this video 5 times

"Just noticed something after all these years of watching Goodfellas: In the iconic prison dinner scene, Paulie's nails are perfectly manicured. Even while he's thinly slicing garlic with a razor, his nails look pristine, as if he isn't even incarcerated. It's fascinating to think these wise guys, known for their sharp suits, would maintain their grooming to this extent even behind bars. The meticulous manicure subtly underscores the film's message-life in prison for these WiseGuys was a world apart. They practically ran the joint, right down to their impeccable grooming. A masterful touch to an already brilliant scene."

I love that the guards don't let them have knives but they will let them have meat forks! 😂

In prison, dinner was always a big thing, unlike on the outside where we never ate dinner at all.

Rest In Peace Paul Sorvino and Ray Liotta, you both was great actors 👏.

“Tomorrow we eat sanguiches…” Love that line….

There's something about the line "I didn't put too much onions in the sauce" that I really like.

Making and eating dinner with the guys - my friends and family. I should be so lucky - enjoy every family dinner, every time you have company. Welcome and cherish them all.

Remember, he's older. So, his taste isn't what it used to be. Thus, the onions… And, almost forgetting Paulie's name.

When Martin Scorsese’s dad is in the scene, it doesn’t feel like they’re acting. It’s like they genuinely talking about how good the sauce is. Which it probably was.

is henry wearing an addidas track suit

This scene always makes me hungry.

No one gonna mention how Vinnie flubs his line and starts to say his own name? 😅

golden age for gangster movies. loved it. can't say i don't miss these gems. foockit

I can’t watch this scene without salivating

No other scene in film history has a vibe like this

Easily one of the greatest movies ever made.

“Ok boys, let’s eat!” - Paulie NOT cooking or preparing a thing telling the people that are cooking. 😂

Paulie telling someone they need to go on a diet was rich. Love it.

Sometimes I have problems getting myself to eat but watching this helps me want to eat

I absolutely love this scene. It makes me hungry

My wife and I have timed having steak dinner with pasta with this scene. I get so hungry when I watch this scene.

RIP Frank Pellegrino. :(

Scorcese dad had the look of a real killer

I like how the wine gets pulled out & Paulie says "now we can eat"

It's one of my favorite scenes in one of my favorite films.

I compromised…i ate grilled cheese off the rahdiator

"Three onions?!"

Reminds me of me and my buddies up at the hunting camp. Dinner was a big deal, everyone had a job, somebody would inevitably come busting through the door back from a supply run and give an inventory of what they brought...

I always thought how backwards it was that Paulie used a tiny razor because they wouldn't let them have a knife in prison, but Vinny has a giant metal weapon-type fork that could be used to kill someone 😂

Gordon Ramsey would flip out about that cooler. You don’t put seafood in the same box with steaks.

For some reason, I like watching this sequence. Being a mobster, it's not a job, its a lifestyle

“Medium Rare mmmh… An aristocrat” it’s been maybe 15 years since i first watched Goodfellas, and to this DAY i still use it

Reminds me of Sundays at my Uncle Carm's and Aunt Eve's house. They're both gone but I can still taste that sauce! The pork and Bracciole...my mouth is drooling!

I really love this scene. Good food in an awful place is good living 😂😂

Since I saw this movie when it first came out, I always slice garlic layer thin with a razor. It really does liquify in the pan

I must have watched a scene hundred fifty times and it always makes me hungry

Ever since I saw this movie every time someone orders a medium rare steak in my presence I always say, “Hmm an aristocrat 🤷🏼‍♂️,” but no one ever gets the reference

came here for another clip of one of the greatest movies in cinema...stayed for tips on how to actually liquify garlic.

This video clip always made me hungry. I wish it was longer lol

Johnny went from cooking steak in the can to harassing Tony Soprano

I wish my time was like that

Shit, you forget just how good this movie is, even when watching clips out of context.

If someone asked me for my favourite movie scenes of all time, regardless of genre, this is right up there

Damn this clip makin me hungry

The viewing public’s response to this scene made TV executives realize people would watch cooking shows.

All these years i always thought Ray Liotta says "We had a pasta course and then we had a meter of fish" and i never really got what that was suppose to mean. Slapped on the subtitles today and now realize he says "A meat or a fish".

"Vinny don't put too many onions in the sauce."

I think of this scene every time i cook Italian from scratch.

People loved one another, they left their doors open.

Anyone who lived an institutional environment (prison or otherwise) life will treat cooking like this, it’s an area of control.

At the end of the scene you just want to have a seat and eat with them. That's how good Scorsese is

I'm definitely trying that garlic trick.

According to Michael Franzese, as far as he knows, NOBODY lived like this in prison

I remember watching a KZfaq video where they cut garlic super thin to test if it would actually dissolve. It didn't

The aristocrat gets me every time haha!

The amount of food porn in mob movies is amazing.

Whenever i watch this Movie i'll feel like eating, smoking and talk with a Mobster Accent.

I like how Paulie got the easiest job out of the gang here since he’s the boss.

Total BS, everyone knows you have to compromise and eat a grilled cheese sandwich off the radiator

COME ON COME ON WHAT ELSE

(Nov 2023) Scorsese’s dad (Vinnie)0:25 0:30 0:44 Pan frying0:55 Lobsters1:13 Peppers & onions, salami, 1:59

"Let's give a razor blade to a prisoner."

Wow now I'm so hungry!

I can’t believe they put toucans in their steak!

“In covid dinner was always a big thing”

Fact: Actor cooking steak owned Raos in New York city and played FBI agent on the Sopranos.

Michael Franzese said there is nothing exists in the prison called joint just made up by Henry. And henry wasn’t close with Pauli as he described in the movie!

All i remember from this scene watching it at 10 years old with my dad was the thin slices of garlic and how much attention to detail meant.

This movie was a Italian cookbook with a movie built around it

Why is this scene so very satisfying to watch lol was it because of jail time or just the food? Lol
