Some questions, given that Henry Hill was noted to be a bit of a liar...

1) Was he really as close to Paul Vario as he claimed? In the book and in the film, Paulie seems to view him almost as something like a son.

2) Was Paul Vario himself as big a bigshot as he's described, wth hundreds of guys reporting to him?

3) Is it honestly realistic that an un-made associate could live as luxuriously as Henry is portrayed as living, even if the local Capo or Boss had him in his favor?

4) Why didn't the Mob ever put out a contract on Henry after he flipped? His whereabouts were pretty well known after he got kicked out of the Witness Protection Program so I'm surprised no up and comer tried to take him out after Goodfellas came out or that a guy like John Gotti didn't put a price on his head.

5) How much of Hill's story is fact and how much is fiction? Were Jimmmy Burke and Tommy D as crazy, respected and feared as portrayed?

6) Henry went back and forth on claiming murder; He sometimes claimed he'd killed people other times said he never did. What do you guys think? Do you think Henry ever killed anyone on Paulie's or Jimmy's orders?
