- Goodfellas Scenes That Had To Be Changed In Order To Make The Cut. Released in nineteen ninety, Goodfellas shocked everyone with its graphic depictions of violence and mayhem in the New York mob system. The iconic movie follows the story of Henry Hill, a mobster, and member of the New York City’s Lucchese crime family. It takes us through his crazy and wild adventures, along with Tommy DeVito and Jimmy Conway. But did you know that as bloody as the final cut of the movie was, the original cut was actually even more graphic? Following a failed Test Audience review, the movie had to be seriously readjusted. Here are the Goodfellas scenes that had to be changed in order to make the cut.

Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the video!
Nice details
This ain't right a all
Were human beings involved in the creation of this video?
It's pretty irritating that you would purposly mis-pronounce the names of each actor, and character it's clear that you did by the way you occasionally pronounce one correctly.
@@505Lucky7It might be that the narration is done by computer which is ridiculous. Get a real person to narrate.
The line is “now go home and get your shine box”.. Not “shoebox”.
Thanks for mentioning the error. It irritated me too! This was an important line and needed to have been gotten right. 😉
I know !! Really I haven’t seen the movie in a long time but knew it was wrong !!! Get it right
Actually, the narrative and the video don't really match. Its more of a guy reading a script while scenes from the movie play in the background. Great movie but poor video.
What do you expect, he cant even say Ray Liottas name right.....
@@pt8614isn't it an AI video?
I dated a girl about 30 years ago!…. She lived with her mother, and me and my drunk friends would show up at her house at 3 am in the morning…. And her mother would wake up, heat us up some leftovers, or even cook us some food from scratch!…. I’ll never forget how kind she treated our little gang of hooligans!…. Every time I watch this movie!…. I think about Tommy’s mother being exactly like my ex-girlfriend’s mother!…. Cooking us food, and having an awesome conversation over some food!…. Great memories!…. 👍
These AI read scripts are pretty awful.
OMG, "Go home and get your SHOEBOX????" Did this guy even watch the movie?
This AI narrator is total whacked out.
yeah Ray "Lee-oughta" just sounds strange @Notfiveo0
One of the most disturbing things that didn't make it to the movie is Paulie having an affair with Karen when Henry was in jail.
Henry did the same…Having an affair with other woman 👩 as long Henry tells Karen that he love her…..
That is not the same thing. Paulie was like family to Henry and Karen. @@felexberrios9475
They hint to it if you watch when Paulie is talking to Henry about going back to his wife Paulie says I’ll talk to her. If anyone has a way with her it’s me. That’s the hint he was sleeping with her
If I didn't read the book I would have never known. @@JMV422
Amen to that
The Spider character wasn't invented, he was an actual person who was possibly buried in a basement. Spider's sister actually confronted Henry on a radio show and Henry would not respond to her.
that's true- I listened to that show with Spider's sister when it was live on the air -
He wasn't real
Spider's real name was Michael Gianco, and he became associated with the Lucchese family sometime in the 1960s. He mostly served the crew drinks during their card games, and one bad night, he was shot on the thigh when Tommy (whose real last name was DeSimone) ordered him to dance.Feb 21, 2021@@fransesco9703
@@fransesco9703 Yes, he was real. Spider is based on a real life person and according to the real Henry Hill, his death in the movie happened just as it did in real life. Spider's real name was Michael Gianco, and became associated with the Lucchese family sometime in the 1960s.
He was only a 16 year old kid.
The most disturbing fact is that Robert de Niro and Paul Sorvino is the same person in this clip. 1:45
Nice catch. I never knew that little cinematic tidbit.
Yeah.
Caught it
There are so many mistakes in this video, I lost track!
Both are real douche bags.
I love where you showed the Infamous Scene That Was Cut from Goodfellas, that part was awesome!!
He showed it?? Wow, I missed it. I will rewatch it now. Um, I'm sorry but I did not see it at all. I think he didn't show it. What he did do though is butcher people's names. Have a great 2024 and be safe.
@@partybusexperiance3289 I was being sarcastic... total click bait.. should be reported..
I’ve got 40 seconds in and then found this comment. Thank you for saving me nearly half an hour.
@@s_p_onarge8720 You're welcome, the video should be reported for click bait.
@@MediaBuster I know. So was I. You have a wonderful year.
I met Henry Hill when he worked at Valmont in Valley , Nebraska. I had just come from Chicago, where I went to grad school, but I WAS SHOCKED to be in Valley, Nebraska. ( I'm a black woman and a teacher at a community college)
Anyway, Henry Hill walked up to me and said "How do you like it here?" I just shook my head.
Several months later,Henry got arrested for bringing drugs into Nebraska.
(Henry Hill didn't look ANYTHING li ke Ray Liotta)
Oh, you're a racist, thats SO cool!!
Goodfellas and Ray Liota ,Henry never looked so good. Henry was a addict and drunk his whole adult life. Henry was a lost soul
@@ZDiddy7777 : ??? What 😆
@@ZDiddy7777WTF..?? 🤪
Love that last scene. Masterful
I hope they release an uncut version.
Don't need a 27 minute video to tell us this.
Any mafia genre fan who would walk out of the cinema after seeing Tommy stab Billy Batts deserves a big "Now go get your fucking shinebox" 😂
It's shoebox, lolol. Please stop the click bait.
1. "Shine box", not "Shoe box." You gota' be kidding, dunsky.
2. I've studied that masterpiece moment, the "Funny? How?" scene very carefully. Its unambiguous impact comes from the supporting actors around the table. It is their dread which the viewing audience absorbs. I used it for a number of auditions as a monologue, but it never seemed to land, despite the fact that it is well within my range and natural character type. Eventfully, it dawned on me why: the supporting cast's 'reaction shots' was vital for its successful delivery.
I caught that too. He comes off as a Goodfellas expert but he messes up shine box, makes you question the entire video.
Most people that haven't been to NYC or the long ago closed Michigan Central Station don't even know what a "shine box" is. I suspect the narrator of this documentary tried to explain it using the term "shoe box" instead.
Ray liotta was so good in this
The entire cast was great
Liotta deserved an Oscar nod. Got robbed
Rest in Peace Paul survino, Frank Vincent, and Ray liotta. If I missed anyone. I apologize
You forgot Tony Sirico..
I can't believe this movie is 34 years old already. It Doesn't not seem like it's that old already but it is.
Oh wow! Yeah, thanks, I could have done without this insight lol - Now go home and get your... shoebox.
How the hell did Dances with Wolves win best picture instead of this? The academy is seriously f'd up.
I vividly remember this and actually threw an empty can of coke at the TV I was so PISSED!
SHOEBOX Excuse me?! Its shine box to shine shoes. Tommy did it so well the shoes would look like fuckin MIRRORS 😂
If you are going to cover this genre at least pronounce the lucchese name right and also get facts and locations correct. Ft Bragg is in NC not north California
It's also LEE-OH-TAH
It’s almost like a bot
Get your shine box, not shoe box. This video was all over the place. I hate electronic voices reading
No one cares about pronouncing it correctly. Who cares.
I do, for one. If you're covering a movie, mispronouning is like misspelling in a book essay. I think it's important to get things like this correct.@@LuisALaboy
That scene with Tommy's Mom was a needed scene. ❤
Correction: Ft. Bragg, California is a bucolic resort town. When it was an active fort on the frontier, airplanes hadn't been invented yet. Ft. Bragg, North Carolina (now Ft. Liberty) is the Home of the Airborne. I was stationed there about 30 years after Henry Hill.
O noticed that too!! It's Ft Bragg, NC.Not California. There's other things that he messed up as well!!
I thought Fort Bragg was in North Carolina, too. However, I wasn't absolutely sure.
Without a doubt, one of the best movies of all time!
How about selling hacked cigarettes and get caught for getting snow tires for his mother's car with a stolen credit card. Amazing writing.
Prefer TAXI DRIVER.
At 1:45, the narrator names Paul Sorvino, but it shows Robert DeNiro.
Henry & Karen's wedding is a very important scene as well. It shows just how close a family-like structure the mafia was, and how trusting of each other they are.
You should have included that in this video - it was just overwhelming for an outsider like Karen.
Ray LEE-OH-TA (Liotta) was absolutely gorgeous in this movie. Good film. Pesci did a phenomenal job. DeNiro was AWESOME (like always). Flawless performances by ALL. 😊
Spider was a real person and his family found out what happen to him when they watched this movie.
That’s terrible…
Spider's death was also a classic return to something most writers and more than a few directors seem to have forgotten. It's as simple as it gets in a complex artistic world. *Show. Don't Tell!* Others might have spent half a reel showing conversations about how crazy Tommy was. Instead, you get Murder- the ultimate expression of crazy- and never forget it!
"Show; don't tell" is intended more for literature, because it's more applicable. It kinda goes without saying that exposition needs to be minimal in a visual medium like film. The irony is that Goodfellas IS exceptionally heavy on exposition, because Henry Hill obviously provides plentiful narration.
It extends to film every day. How much time is wasted on "Talking heads" for exposition? Two or more characters on screen struggle with weak dialogue about how good or bad something or someone happens to be. Dialogue is difficult and weak. Action coupled with silence and or a state of emotion is powerful. John Wick's murdered puppy and his reaction to the event coupled with the sledgehammer on the concrete floor tell the audience far more and far more vividly about John than the drawn-out explanation that Viggo gives his doomed idiot of a son. (Although the beating Viggo gives him while it goes on is also a perfect exposition for Viggo's character.) The core problem with 95% of the schlock that gets put on film these days is simply this: Screenwriters don't know how to write action. They would rather take the easy and simple "escape hatch" of doing page after page of worthless dialogue that puts the audience to sleep face down in their popcorn buckets.
WnTF u texting about!?! LMMFAO... Lemme take wild assumption... Can't be even, say older than 27yrs ole? 😎🚬
@@user-jt4wr4mx6w Get your a** back to whatever school you flunked out of and beg them to teach you two things you never learned. To speak decent English and how to hold a polite conversation, you lousy cockroach!
I hate clickbait titles. There is NO "Scene That Was Cut" in this blah blah video.
Spyder was real not only that his sister complained to Henry hill that he came across as an idiot in the movie
Mrs Scorsese played a wonderful part in that movie
4:19: the line is "Now go home and get your fucking shinebox", not "your shoebox"...
I didn't see any of the brutal cut scenes i was promised.
Exactly😂😂😂😂😂click bait
Never mind that a couple of the shots were from freaking CASINO. Junk video.
“Lee Ot Ta”, “Piece Shi” 🤣🤣🤣
C’mon man, these guys are well known actors. Get it right, lol.
Also, “Apple Atchins”. 🤦♂️
Quite an interesting presentation so far. But apparent AI assistance needed some editing. The primary actor's name is LEE-OAT-A. In the first six and a half minutes, the word "iconic" was used no less than three times. In the segment about making the audience more comfortable, there was double talk that was very reminiscent of a Kamala Harris speech.
Good material, but needed human eyes to look it over before posting.
Tommy Devito now a QB for the Giants
And he kind of looks like the real Tommy.
Not so fast, my firend....not anymore.
Most authentic (with some controversy,naturally!) Mob Life that ever we seen!
Scarface came out a decade before Goodfellas and had that chainsaw shower scene, which was controversial at the time. Tony Montana's mother knew what he was like Tommy's mother did, but she did not embrace him the same way.
seven years.
Fort Bragg is in North Carolina not California. Good that that part wasn't in the movie.
The narration was good but, a couple of mistakes were made. Fort Bragg is in North Carolina NOT California. In the bar scene, the guy Tommy whoops was named BATS (short A) NOT BATES, and, it's Joe Pesci (short E) NOT PEESCI. Also, the line from Billy Bats was, "GO HOME AND GET YOUR FUCKING SHINE BOX" NOT SHOE BOX. All due respect intended.
The late night scene with Tommy's mom was one of the best scenes in the entire movie. She was "just a mom" concerned about her son. For Joe Pesch it showed there were times in his life when he could decompress and show some normalcy. The scene added a lot to the movie and I'm glad it was not cut out.
Mispronunciations aside Goodfellas is a great movie and the deleted scenes should have been left in
Hmmm...do you say ri-coat-uh cheese or ri-catta cheese? I say ri-ractta (ricotta) cheese. Ray Lee-o-tah or Ray Lee-atta.
Automated voice
The real quote is "now go home and get your fucking shine box"
"Go home and get ya shine box!" (NOT "shoe box")
I didn't see any uncut scenes
When Henry served in the 82nd at Fort Bragg it was(is) in North Carolina, not North California as stated here.
LOL this was making me so pissed because I had no idea how close we were to losing so many great scenes in this classic film...What the hell kinda movie did warner brothers wanna make? I'm glad Martin decided to stick to his guns..
Never forget Hollywood not only commercialized "political correctness",, they monetized it as well. So many people in real life have died from their twisted depictions of life,, it would terrify us all if we knew the true number. Somehow they try to keep their noses (& image) clean whitewashing anything which might be perceived as counter intuitive to what a lot of their garbage movies might depict of America's true dark underworld nature. They know "squeaky clean" doesn't work but they're smart enough to realize just the right amount of blood & gore is what actually turns movie goers on. Too much of the stuff might turn into real life "going postal" episodes they make sure they don't get blamed for. Their editing philosophy sorta follows the Goldilocks mantra,, "not too hot,, not too cold but just right" does it every time..
I think the appeal of gangster movies is most of us have unexpressed anger and even rage. The movie becomes an outlet...
Jesus...shoebox??? You have no right doing a video on this movie....you just trampled on one of the most iconic lines in cinematic history...
One scene in the movie actually happened to Henry Hill, per an interview he gave, in which the Babysitter made Henry drive her back to her house so she could pick-up her Lucky hat she'd forgotten to bring. She refused to fly without her lucky hat, thereby causing Henrys' actual real-life arrest. Henry actually had the drugs in the car the babysitter was supposed to carry onboard. Had she would've not demanded her hat, SOMEONE else would have taken her to the Airport & Henry could have stayed home & made his meatballs and been in the clear. ~per Henry Hills interview version of the actual event. Just a small fact I found very interesting.
I think not. After stopping the car, they raided the house. Everyone got arrested and they were under surveillance for a while. Remember the helicopter? He was getting arrested that night no matter what.
Tut! Tut! Caption for photo at 1:45 reads: "PAUL SORVINO" but shows Robert De Niro.
Why did you lie, saying there was a deleted scene? I've stopped this video at 2 minutes and NOT subbed. Seems crazy to lie like that, but I'm sure you know what you're doing.
This will be a classic 100 years from now and more.
It already is dumb ass
In a 100 years will be redone with Klingons and disruptors.
is the actor paul sorvino , bob deniros relative? they look like same person, uncanny .
That movie poster reminds me of being in high school. Being 17. Man those were the good ‘ol days.
Five minutes in the video and still waiting for the deleted scenes..
SHINEBOX- “Go get your shinebox” is the line. And it’s Ray “Lee-oh-tah”
Had you actually ever seen this film before you reviewed it?
Seems to me like a lot of AI was used making this video. It's odd.
@@DaveyMulholland A lot of these documentaries are made by people that don't speak English very well and that is why AI is used in them for the voiceover work. AI is far from perfect in pronounciation (so are humans after a mild stroke, I have trouble pronouncing my own last name so it is clear over the telephone).
According to the Pileggi's book Batts was killed because a lot of his street action was taken over by Jimmy & Batts demanded it back.They know who killed Tommy, his own family the Luccheses'.
It was John Gotti of the Gambino Family when Gotti was a Capo that killed the real Tommy.
It's only a moo-vieee! Fugetabouitit. Sheesh!
Pesci and Vincent were once a musical comedy duo.
Fort Bragg is in North Carolina. No one says "North California." It's "Northern California." And I've been to Fort Bragg in California. There's no active Fort there.
Top 10 all-time movie.
Is anyone going to mention how he mispronounced Rays last name lol😂
Yes!!! That was bothering me too!!!
Fort Bragg CA is not an airborne base. That base, Fort Bragg is in North Carolina, which is where Henry Hill served.
" MY MOTHER IS GONNA MAKE SOME FRESH PEPPERS AND SAUSAGE"
It remains my absolute favorite movie of all time.
Did you even watch the movie I don't think so
Any audience member who’d walk out of the theater because they’re put off by the violence in Goodfellas is just a person with bad taste in movies, and their opinions shouldn’t be trusted or taken into consideration. Goodfellas is high art.
It’s a gangster film. That’d be like going to see a musical on broadway and complaining that there’s too many songs in it.
That's right!
The average movie goer in 1990 wasn't used to 'graphic violence". Only a few mainstream movies released had graphic violence. "The Wild Bunch" "Scarface" and "Taxi Driver" went the limits of what major studios would consider "releasable" to mainstream audiences. The SUITS at Warner Brothers didn't care about "HIGH ART" they cared about how many tickets they could sell. Most studios would have done the same thing-asked for cuts. I'm glad Scorcese argued but in the end he had to make all these cuts that probably watered down the intensity of the film. A major studio will NEVER back a director when it comes to graphic violence, even if it fits the tone of the film.
So obviously they got rid of TEST AUDIENCES lol considering how gory and violent movies are today, even most tv shows it's a crazy contrast..They could re-release it, that would be awesome..Henry Hill said he had a copy of the directors cut which had almost half hour of additional footage so it does exist..
Truth is hard for people to handle! I myself love it. Thank you for the video
Good video but you did mispronounce a lot of the names and you got a lot of the places wrong but you seem to be the only person ever who actually pronounced Martin scorsese's name correctly even though you screwed up on Ray Liotta's name 🤔
I am from California and served in the US Army. There is a Fort Bragg in California. However, there is also a Fort Bragg in North Carolina too. And that is where the 82nd Airborne Division as well as other units of the 18th Airborne Corps is located. The 82nd AB Div. is in North Carolina's Fort Bragg.
I was reading that Ft Bragg, CA was a military garrison during the Civil War up until late 1860's. Yes the 82nd Airborne is at Ft Bragg, NC.
One would prefer the narrative to get it right. This ain't Hollywood.
You caught that as well....
Sounds like you're bragging.
You can't even get the line right. it was "Shinebox"
It is a classic !! Right there godfather - goodfellas - casino
Unlikeable! He was a coke head an outcast. The real deal Mafioso knew that . His crew was the minor league, and very expendable. The Mom scene was excellent. A Italian Mom love is boundless. She knew what he was . The joke about the cornudu. (Cockhold ) was very human and relatable. I grew up in the area worked with my Dad loading up packages from JFK airport. Then delivered them in Manhattan. When the theft happened, they shut down the airport and we lost money. Memories, makes this movie real. Tommy had relatives in the real Mafioso spoiled and protected he became a liability.
Dude you jumped from thought to thought, cutting off sentences, i had two read everything at least 2-3 times.
Wait who's crew was minor league? These guys weren't in the mafia. They were a crew under Jimmy the gent. They were "friends" of a capo. That's it. A connected crew robbed the airport.
Right at the beginning of your video here you say, Jimmy Conway when it’s Robert De Niro, you’re talking about that was on the screen there!
I don't think Tommy Devito was born then 😂😂.
He'd be an old QB for the Giants
No known picture of the real Billy Batts..the supposed incident happened in 1970..Tommy Desimone was killed 1979..definitely Henry Hill taking liberty to make his story better.I knew Henry and he was one of the biggest bull 💩 ers I've ever met
If you are watching and enjoying this video, you are probably a die-hard and true-blue fan of Goodfellas. In the famous cooking in prison scene there is a blooper that was left in the film. It is a very small blooper that is easy to miss. Does anyone else know the blooper I am referencing?
When he almost called him Vinnie
Freddie !
Why not state what the "blooper" is, rather than being all mysterious? Its not a state secret, its in every "did you know" type video, you're not special and your comment was pointless.
@@ZDiddy7777 Could not have been pointless because you took the time to respond to the comment.
@@v.a.993 I don't think you know what the word "pointless" means.
Don't ever insult Italians especially guys like that. Billy bats treating Tommy like that was a catalyst for how Tommy treated a lot of other people.
The line is "now go get your f*cking shine box" not "shoe box"
I had seen a documentary on the Lufthansa heist and from my knowledge of the movie, I had been able to deduce that the movie was spot on, almost to a 'T'
It sucks that Martin Scorsese had to contend with studio interference. I want to see a director’s cut of Goodfellas now.
It’s safe to say that by the time Casino came out, the studio suits just said, “fuck it, let him do whatever he wants.”
The studios always get involved and they try and screw things up. The studio heads don’t even know what the audience wants. They are so out of touch with what’s going on. They are stuck in the past. I was in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles from 1997-2008 as a writer and some of the shit we had to put up with was ridiculous. The studio heads where still living in the 1970’s-1980’s when it was the turn of a new millennium.
Casino was a good movie too
They should have said that when they hired him. But they are to stupid to understand how stupid they are.
82nd AB out of Fort Bragg North California? Fights with Marine at Bragg? Was this done by AI or something? What crock!
"The trip pulled over?" Or do you mean, trio,
All I can say I love joe pecci 😊
My god you’re pronouncing these names wrong.
just a quick note to clear some doubts,point something the movie didnt covered and left the viewers with a question about tommys death
henrys wife,karen,was having an afair with paulie and when henry got sent to jail,tommy tried to rape her after she rejected him,karen goes to paulie for lets say "protection" and tells him about what happened...now pay attention because this is the important part
paulie then goes with the gambinos and tells them about everything,the lofthansa heist,about foxxy...about billy bats murder,everything
now if you remember,theres 2 mob rules,that if broken,are punishable by death that tommy just commited:
-killing a maid man(withouth the okay of his boss)
-mess around with someone elses wife(or at least tried)
discounting the drugs bussines (because i dont remember very well)that was more than enough to warrant a hit on tommy...henry talked about it on his book and honestly its the closest well ever get to what happened or how the gambinos knew what he did,because remember,tommys body was never found and jhon gotti(the man supposedly behind)never said a word
ps: why was jimmy and henry not killed for participating in bats death?
best guess is they werent the masterminds,it was tommys personal action,they werent formal part of the mob(they were irish)AND they were earning way more money thanks to the drugs thing of course,so most likely,they were waiting until they started burning out and make less money for them,then,they wouldve been whacked as well
I’d love to see the uncut original version and own a copy
You have spread out a very simple fact into nearly 30 minutes 😂😂
Yeah agree... i felt I just wasted 29 minutes watching this 30 minute video..
Darn, no deleted scenes shown. And i've never seen a special DVD version either. They should have known there would be, a small, a dedicated fan base.
Fort Bragg is in Fayetteville, North Carolina.
Sir, Fort Bragg is in North Carolina. Not California.
Go home and get your shoe box?
That has so so funny 😅
I caught that too unbelievable 😂
What everyone gets wrong about this is that the spider character was invented when in fact he was not spider was a real person and in fact when the real Henry Hill went on the Howard Stern Show somebody had called in claiming to be Spider's sister yelling at him saying she knew that they killed him and asking where the body was
Henry , like most mob guys, could tell a lot of great stories. A small percentage of them were actually true. Most of the "wise guys " are serial liars.
Damn is this true?
Why did you just show DeNiro a second time when you said "Paul Sorvino"?
Correction - Spider wasn't a fictitious character. That really happened.
We all had our own character we related to the most. Jimmy the Gent was my man 💪🏻💪🏻
I still don't know why he grabbed the knife from his mom's house. They grabbed the shovel to bury Bats because they thought he was already dead. There was no use for the knife.
Good point I never thought about it like that. Even if they were going chop him up they wouldn't with that knife, and they didn't need to chop him up, they were just throwing him in a hole so yea thats a good point
It was just for cheap effect.
There was a New York Irish mob called the Westies & they would cut the hands off of murdered mobsters & freeze them . Later they would use the hand to leave fingerprint evidence on murder weapons. And since this crew is half Irish it’s not a big leap , that’s my guess anyway
💥 That's no ordinary knife!💥
It's the new Wiseguy Ginzu©!
It slices, dices, rices, splices;
for weddings, beheadings, maimings and more;
fettuccine, linguini, martini, bikini 💥
💥The Wiseguy Ginzu!💥
Tommy tell his mom they hit a deer and need the knife to chop it?
There really needs to be a remake that shows the actual extremity of the reality.
