One of my all time favorite movies-some scenes I never get tired of. Like the ""I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown?"" scene.

Joe Pesci won the supporting actor oscar.

I've raed where the real life guy for that Pesci character was crazier than the Pesci character. Complete nut case.
The Luchesse family of which they were part of has taken a few hits from the federal government RICO statutes.

Yeah I heard that too.

Here's a little Pesci trivia for you. Frank Vincent, the actor who played Billy Batts, the made guy Pesci's character killed in Goodfellas, was in two other Scorsese/Pesci movies.

In Raging Bull, Pesci's character beat the crap out of Vincent's in a bar.

In Casino, Vincent's character finally returns the favor, whacking Pesci's character in the Nevada desert.

Vincent was also in season 5 and 6 of The Sopranos
