I wont argue with the father beans scene but its overused nowadays, when I first watched it though it was brilliant But this scene in the sequel to that is just plain weird and makes me feel a slight unease personally, Hannibal feeding Paul his own brain https://youtu.be/ibfBDKiw1ac Its a powerful scene personally in that it gets its desired effect |

Tommy De Vito asking Henry Hill how he's funny. Simply chilling. I almost lose control of my bladder every time I see it - and I've seen it a lot of times. Unscripted apparently. Suggested by JP to Scorcese and he went with it. Jimmy Conway drawing on a cig at the bar, eying up the bad guy, with Sunshine Of Your Love, belting out on the soundtrack. |

The last half hour of Goodfellas as it all starts to unravel is a masterclass in building tension. But the sheer claustrophobia of the scene where DeNiro meets up with Lorraine Bracco for a drop off and then tells her to go a few doors down and take a nice dress. The tension as she tries to decide what to do as DeNiro is giving her that smile, you're willing her to keep walking, you just know she shouldn't go through that door. Thankfully she has been infected by enough of her husband, Liottas, paranoia to eventually give it a swerve. I'm clammy thinking about it.
I have watched the film many times and - for me - the glitch is when the narrator expresses his relief after (he is told) Moby (?) is spared his life. Because his pov is from speaking in the future. So when they kill him later that night, it is a surprise, but not a satisfying one. It makes the viewer doubt the narrator. |

That is a great scene Steerforth. The most memorable one in Goodfellas for me
Made me think of the memorable psycho scene in Full Metal Jacket. The "this is my rifle" scene from Private Pyle |
