Cheers Trev, thanks for that. I was aware just thinking of a phrase he was well known for.

Even though it was over 25 years ago I remember reading a preview of Goodfellas and a quote that it will go down as the best gangster film of all time...and I think it has. Fucked if I've seen anything better.

Goodfellas is a masterpiece in film making in my opinion.

That scene in the bar when Di Niro decides he's gonna kill everyone, with the music kicking in, is amazing.

He was indeed, as we as The Sopranos, Wiseguy and Gotti, not typecast at all!
I think he also had a part in Raging Bull, long time since I last saw that though.

Loved Goodfella's but Godfather 2 is perfection for me... big fan of Millers Crossing and Road to Perdition.... which has one of the best ever lines ever in any film....
Paul Newman (John Rooney) : `There are only murderers in this room! Michael! Open your eyes! This is the life we chose, the life we lead. And there is only one guarantee: none of us will see heaven`.

It is my favourite quote from Goodfellas, B.
"Now go home and get your shoeshine box"
