the acting in this film is beyond any other

No cars parked outside your ceremony , get a clue tommy.

That's for Spider.

Pesci seems to back himself into these types of corners in every single Scorsese movie. I must say, however, he caught it MUCH WORSE in Casino.

I reckon one day there will be a remake of this film..... and it'll be fucking dreadful.

They left out the best part about the phone booth scene Classic Deniro, his response, makes that whole scene completely work.

Fun fact. In real life Tommy was sawed in half with a chainsaw by the Gambino crew after being tortured for quite a while. This is according to Det. Joseph Coffey of the NYPD.

Dere was nuthin we coodoaboudit

I love the movies Goodfellas & casino. Not just they're brilliant movies with brilliant actors & production, but also because it's a stark warning to any man thinking of becoming a gangster that, although he may become rich & have a great life, the strong probability is that he will either spend years in prison or - more likely - end up dead.

"But it had nothing to do with me" I love this line because you can hear he's paranoid, but he has this false sense of security he doesn't even believe in.

All of that is just a little reminder of how Hell has a large Italian neighborhood.

"what do ya think? I look good! I want to look my best before I get whacked...."

I was so relieved that Tommy got whacked that crazy psycho had it coming

What's funny is that in 2 Scorcese films, Goodfellas and Casino, Pesci plays a homicidal maniac. Scorcese: "I need someone to play a homicidal maniac. Get me Pesci."

I loved Martin Scorsese's Mom's role in this film. She's so caring and I loving.

At least he can hang out with Morrie, Spider, and Nunzio up in the EUUUUGH.

Jimmy's reaction was the best part. Deniro is such a badass in this movie but breaks down and cries is truly a great acting moment

Poor Tommy, he got all dressed up in his best Sunday clothes and "bang" ...

Nicky's sixth sense was so suspicious about everything around him that they indeed had to invent the story as if they're gonna make him. Otherwise, and for no other reason, Nicky would have never let anyone take him to such a dodgy place where he can get killed. That's why he figured out his death had come a split second before the bullet hit his skull - he just looked at the place and realized something is wrong. And for the guys like Nicky "something is wrong" means imminent death.

Tommy had it coming, he killed Billy Batts. That was a big mistake because at that time Tommy killed Batts, Batts was a made man. Killing a made man without permission means you are marked.

pesci was amazing acting in casino & goodfella's ... a treasure

What an amazing scene...door opens, and the moment of realization hits him that he is about to buy the farm....BOOM!

I guess there was no other way to resolve the situation. Tommy killed a MADE guy from ANOTHER family on a whim when he himself wasn't even made...and they said that Batts was a member of the Gambino family. From what I know of the background of these characters, Tommy and Co. ran with the Lucchesi family. Once they figured out it was Tommy who had whacked Batts, all the Gambinos probably had to say was "either you guys take care of this thing in-house or we're going to start a war," and given that Tommy had killed a made guy in flagrant violation of Mafia rules, it was pretty much an open and shut case. There was nothing to even argue over. The heads of the Lucchesi family probably thought "this little fuck has caused enough trouble for us. Let's be rid of him once and for all." Hell, if they hadn't, all the other families may have ganged up against them with the Gambinos in any potential war over this, given how big of a violation of core mafia rules this was. And the Lucchesis were probably only too happy to get rid if him. They weren't gonna go to all that trouble, let alone get into a war, for a hyper-aggressive non-member little punk bastard like Tommy. As Henry would say, "They'd rather whack'im," and given how much trouble he caused them, doing something that could have almost started a war between them and another family, as I said, the Lucchesis were probably only too happy to be rid of him.

Why was Frankie Carbone killed?, with his epic afro.

"They whacked him, they fucking whacked him."

Lmao, Johnny didn't even bother returning the Cadillac. Fitting that him and his wife were found dead inside it.

Just watched Siskel and Ebert's review, Ebert's description of this scene made me want to watch it again, for the first time appreciating the filmmaking perspective and how shocking it is when it happens.

Spiders laughing now.. ;)

I'm watching this scene over and over and something stands out at me. As soon as Joe enters the room he looks around and before he gets shot you hear him try to say "Oh No." Is it that Joe maybe knows this was a setup and it was too late?

I wonder if tommy shined some shoes with his face.

That "farewell" scene with him and his mother. WOW. Scorsese did such a masterful job at making these deplorable characters sympathetic, EVEN Tommy (for me at least). I'll never forget the first time I rented this film, I rented it along with Suikoden for PS1, and they would both become favorites of mine in the same night. But when this scene happened, I jumped up in shock and sat there stunned even after Henry started seeing helicopters. I was 13 years old, and I'd give anything to go back in time and relieve my first time watching my favorite movie and playing one of my favorite RPG's.

Everything about this film is genius - case in point - the choice of music for this scene.

Tommy got off easy compared to Nicky Santoro

Dude, Pesci, not Peci ...... Ciao from Italy.

The soundtruck and the songs for this movie are perfect

Dude, THANK YOU!!!!! I've always wanted to know that!! This is like one of my favorite movies! Thanks again!

To be made, you gotta love spaghetti and be loud and obnoxious in public.

He got worse in casino

When Tommy gets whacked, Jimmy whacks the phone booth.

One of the greatest pieces of art i ever saw in my life

"don't paint any more religious pictures, please"

Great movie, but it gets it wrong in 2 ways. 1) He was killed while Vinnie and Hennery were in Florida to beat up that guy. Tommy was going to go with them but he was suppose to be getting made. Vinnie made the phone call and found out before they went to that guy. 2) It wasn't a quick kill. They tortured Tommy for hours before killing him.

I loved the way they kept talking to him as if everything was ok.

I love how in the Sopranos when Chrissy is about to be made and Adriana (and later he) are nervous that he he is actually gonna get wacked like in this scene and Chrissy and Tony dismiss that by saying "you watch too many movies" referring to this one

As an Italian, I am somehow surprised that in order to be part of the American mafia you need to be 100% Italian LoL

My Thanksgiving turkey is like Carbone this year. It's going to take me two days to thaw it out.

Once Tommy got to that empty room he knew that he was gonna be wacked, but it was too late.

"Layla" from Derek and the Dominoes. This is the piano coda, which is the second part of the song.

I'm about to cry

I didn't know Joe Peci died. Actually, who's Joe Peci? Was he a character in Goodfellas?

Classic scene, I wish you would've included De Niro beating the shit out of the payphone, ha ha, but great upload.

That's how they get their "targets" in place, totally relaxed with nowhere to go.

Joe Pesci didn't die. It was his character Tommy DeVito. For the love of God, change the title.

Its sad when tommy dies but you knew it was coming he killed 4 people and one of them was a made man.

Thanks. Great insight!

he liked how he figured out he was set up just few milliseconds before he got "wacked".

Best Mob Movie Ever Made!

Law and Order : Criminal Shinebox

I think of this sometimes when I enter a house through the basement garage door. Including my own.

you seem like some New York Family guy,amazing analysis.

And that's that....

Maybe because he killed Billy Baths after he gave him shit about his shinebox, and was also a made man.

'....and that's that..'

Tommy looked sharp in his goomba getup

Questions: 1. How did Pauli and them find out it was Tommy? The only ones who knew were Tommy, Jimmy and Henry. 2. Why didn't nothing happen to Jimmy and Henry? 10 Jan 15

I have a question. How did the Gambino's know that Tommy whacked Billy Bats? I watched this movie multiple times, but it was never explained. Did Henry or Jimmy secretly tell the don?

I like to think the last thing that went through his head, other than that bulllet, was to wonder how the hell he could forget his shinebox..

I read the book called "Wiseguy" by Nicholas Peligini, the reason why Tommy Desimone was killed because he was also harassing Henry Hills wife. Along with the his other stuff he was pulling which upset Paul Vario. Tommy Desimones death occurred before the heist at the airport in 1971.

Kevin McAllister killed him better in Home Alone

At least pesci died a FUNNY GUY LOLOL

i think the best part of a good film is that the audience can either positively or negatively feel impacted and have a connection either through sympathy or empathy or feel a sense of justice or vengance has been served,in this case revenge for the deaths of spider and billy,its one of the transcending qualities of films and scorseses unique belend of style and storytelling.but i think everyone by now should be familar with eric clapton and Layla's eponymous interlude,it suites this scene fine.

Best direction and cinematography ever.

"God be with you", it's a little hard for that. So it was Jon Gotti that killed Tommy...interesting.

How come Tommy throws himself to the floor at the end?

Moral of the movie: Never kill spiders!

I don't think anyone feels bad about Tommy getting whacked. Poetic justice appreciated.

Who's Joe Peci?

"Don't paint anymore religious pictures please." "Be careful, God be with you." :'-( In Henry Hill's book 'A Goodfella's Guide to New York' which came out back in 2003 it was mentioned that Tommy's house located somewhere between Brooklyn & Queens was still standing.

these guys really gave thereself to this movie.

Gotdamn, this scene ALWAYS gets to me. He KNEW he was done, once the 'oh no' parted his lips. :(

This is why I don't go to parties I can't hear music coming from the inside

Every time I hear the piano part of Layla on the radio I think of the bodies all over scene.

Martin Scorsese must really hate Joe Pesci..

I love this scene with the solo of piano from Layla

Like how Hank Hill writes this book but somehow never kills anyone, does a hit, etc.

is that a stuntman taking the boneless dead body fall? because damn, he deserves a raise. no hands to catch himself, just a straight fall to his front.

I love this scene and thank you for uploading it but I think the title of this video may spoil the film for those who have not seen it

That carpet is gonna need some serious cleaning.

that lil short actor is something else.

"maybe you didnt hear but i dont shine shoes no more"

Tommy had JUST ENOUGH TIME LEFT in his life to know he'd been set up....not a second more.

That Capped scene was disturbing - what made me come here was the hannah barbara theatre pt 2

That was the 2nd worst surprise party Nicki had ever been to.

The shot in the head death scene in Goodfellas probably beat the head on fire by blowtorch scene in Home Alone!

His mouth was open and feeling the gunshot before the gun went off lol

Can't figure out what Tommy says as they walk into the garage. "Iced tea was a fuckin' pimple then, wasn't it?"

Tommy knew what was coming when he saw the empty room!

Because he noticed the room was empty. There should have been a lot of wise guys there to celebrate the ceremony. He probably didn't realize he's was getting shot, he just knew something wasn't right.

I remember, the first time I saw this movie, that I couldn't believe that Carbone got it too ...

In broad terms, there are five Mafia groups, defined mainly by the regions they operate in or the regions they originated in. All five groups have their hands in criminal operations that span the globe and have set up operatives in many different nations. The Sicilian Mafia originated on the island of Sicily. The Camorra Mafia began in Naples, and the Calabrian Mafia originated in Italy's Calabrian region.
