    A sort of horseshoeing happens with Scorsese films. You start watching films and you're certain Goodfellas is his best. Then, you learn more and think actually he's made even better. Then, you figure out that ranking them is silly but in any event this is a shockingly perfect movie. #FilmSky📽️

    Martin Scorsese’s film, GoodFellas (1990) is America’s finest filmmaker at the peak of his form. GoodFellas is a memoir of life in the Mafia, narrated in the first person by Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), an Irish-Italian kid whose only ambition, from his earliest teens, was to be a wise guy, a Mafioso.

    ON THIS DAY: August 23, 1990 saw the release of Goodfellas for the Sega Genesis. It was a metroidvania released a few weeks before the movie, it was panned by critics who complained about the excessive family dinner sequences and cocaine mini-games. It only sold 15 copies.

    I used to prefer Casino to GoodFellas — I still do, but I used to too — but GoodFellas is to me THE movie, the one more than any other movie I've ever seen that makes you go "You know what, I want to watch a lot of fucking movies."

    Students used to ask why I showed them silent movies from 1896 onwards. I explained that they were still a part of modern cinema with Scorsese homaging Edwin S. Porter's The Great Train Robbery (1903) in Goodfellas, a film which had many references to the western genre.
