Goodfellas Question

When Belle, Morrie's wife, goes and tells Henry that Morrie is missing. Henry goes to a restaruant with Jimmy and when they leave Jimmy walks up to a car and knocks on the window and says "Come on fuckos, lets go for a ride."
My question is, who are the people in the car that Jimmy knocks on and what are they doing?

The omnipresent, omnipotent, Big Brother and general pain-in-the-@$#: Federal Bureau of Investigation, I believe.

Yes, and driving that infallable badge of a law enforcement "undercover" team: a full-sized Ford sedan with blackwall tires. They might as well have had the Goodyear blimp hovering overhead with a flashing sign: "COPS...COPS...COPS."

@$#%^*&! It's such a friggin' bummer, too! Everytime I watch it I wanna rub some vaseline on Hill's head and shove his head up his...well, you get the idea! A cruel end to such a great heist!

I always thought they were Pesci and Carbone.
Morrie, Jimmy, Tommy, and Frankie were in the car.

Morrie died, Jimmy left.

Leaving Carbone, and Tommy.

Ho wdi dMaurie's wife, end up in the car with Maurie, I tlook slike she got into the ar willingly na dthen was shot throuh the back of the head cause of blood on windshield.

She willingly got into the car with her husband's dea dbody?

Didn't that damn Maury know if he didn't stop balbusting he'd get popped?

I'd've known

I'd've ??? Wow, first time i ever used that? lol

That was not Maurie, or his wife. That was Johnny Roastbeef, the chubby fellow who bought his wife the pink cadillac against Jimmy's wishes, and his significant other. They'd been shot in the head through the windshield from outside, and the kids playing in the parking lot found them dead. [/QB][/quote]Oh yeah, DUH. I always thought Maury bought the Pink Caddy, but I JUST remmeebr he didn't even have his money, yet, lol.

So much for Johnny Roastbeef. Whatever happened to Tubby, Tuddy (?) Cicero, Vario, whatever. Paulie's brother.?

Henry was with Lenny when he was first jailed for using stolen credit card to buy tires. Lenny is Paul's son . . .

I command this family right or wrong . . . it was not what I wanted!

Paulie had sons named Lenny and Peter too, goodfellaoggie. As Karen Hill put it at her wedding, "I was meeting the people there, Paulie's sons, they were all called Peter or Paulie. Every person I met was either a Peter or a Paul. And all their wives were called Mary. By the end of the evening, I thought I was drunk."[/QB][/QUOTE]

forgot that!
but i think the Lenny in the stolen card is Paul's son. . .
Grazie Rusty!

He was. Lenny and Henry went to use some hot "muldoons," as Paulie called them, at a petrol station.

If you ask someone in Brooklyn or Queens for directions to a "petrol station" they will look at you funny and walk away.

How much are they getting for a gallon of petrol up there? Or do you buy it by the litre?

Tony and Rusty -

Watch it with the name calling! There are many ways to make your point, but name calling isn't one of them.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being intelligent or smart in your posts. It's actually encouraged, as opposed to the current off-topic conversation. Let's not get out of hand...

That's a wise advice. There's no reason why we should get mad at each other. We're not discussing politics or something like that.

So we should get mad if we are discussing politics?

of course. Check out political discussion newsgroups. Always in for a nice dogfight

Paulie had four brothers, I believe. Tuddy ran the cabstand, Peter had a restaurent, Lenny had some other rackets, and I forget who the fourth was. Regardless...in the film, only Paulie gets locked up, courtesy of Henry's testimony. In real life, Peter and Lenny were indicted and convicted of racketeering in 1990 (which is why Tommy DeSimone's character's played the part of real-life Tommy AND real-life Lenny.) I never read anything about Tuddy beyond the "Wiseguy" book, so it's safe to say he's either swimming with the fishes or living out his retirement with the spoils from mob years.[/b][/quote]So Lenny, Peter, and ??? WEREN'T in Goodfellas?

Pesci is Tommy AND Lenny I don't remmeber hi being called Lenny?

In my mind Tuddy was a TOP guy under Paulie. The Capo's BROTHER, the first mobster introduced in the Film. Runs the cabstand, where all the fellas get together, he either got whacked or lived it up, huh?

in REAL LIFE or in film?

Tommy was Paul's son?

Paulie had sons named Lenny and Peter too, goodfellaoggie. As Karen Hill put it at her wedding, "I was meeting the people there, Paulie's sons, they were all called Peter or Paulie. Every person I met was either a Peter or a Paul. And all their wives were called Mary. By the end of the evening, I thought I was drunk."[/b][/quote]yes ALL Pauls, Petes, or Maries.

i don't remmebr lenny's!

He was. Lenny and Henry went to use some hot "muldoons," as Paulie called them, at a petrol station. The clerk caught on and then had them arrested. Another interesting thing to note is that when Henry keeps his mouth shut and leaves the courtroom, it is not Paulie who says "you broke your cherry," as in "Goodfellas." Paulie was serving time on a contempt charged and was in prison at the time.

Also, Lenny Vario, Paul's son, could not be used in "Goodfellas" because he was still alive, and in prison. Therefore, his role was adapted in Tommy DeVito, Tommy DeSimone's fictional character, and that is why Henry is first arrested with Tommy while selling untaxed cigarettes.[/b][/quote]muldoons? Who DOES say broke your cherry?

Is Pesci DeSimone or Lenny?

Burke/Conway was STILL alive, they did HIM!

Why NOT Lenny? Where can i fidn this book?

Son of a BITCH!

I live on the DAMN Canadian border, and pay 1.35 a gallon!

in REAL LIFE or in film?

Tommy was Paul's son?[/QB][/QUOTE]

this is in REAL life, after watching "Goodfellas" i read the book "Wiseguy". read the book Ricardo. . . you'll love it.
