- phil's fed up with being pushed around and letting things slide. what follows is a brief history lesson and an important turning point in the final few episodes of the series.
"what'd they do that for?"
"because they're stupid! that's why." 
Развлечения
Although it's never addressed directly on screen, it is implied that Phil spent twenty years in the can.
+Hal Jordan not an honor roll student, are you?
+MrLilfee Jordan never had the makings of a varsity athlete either
+SerenityNow Small brain. That was Jordan's problem.
+Leon Delvechio Ramirez LOL if you were smart, you would not mention that, and GET YOUR SHINEBOX.
Doesn't he say, "Twenty years in the cam, and not a fucking peep. and for what? the likes of Doc Santoro? rusty millio?
Kid: "Can we have cake now?"
Phil: "Fine, but one last thing. I did twenty fuckin years."
I hadda eat cake off the rad-ee-Atuh, you spoiled guinea brats.
KID: "CAN WE HAVE A CAKE NOW?" PHIL: "ONLY IF YOU EAT IT FROM YOUR FUCKING SHINEBOX!!" KID: "WILL DO UNCLE RETARDO!!"
Snarky, the Cat lmfao.
Tbh the 5 year old kid never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Ofc, but first a grilled cheese from the radiator.
1:22 That casual "Because they're stupid that's why." always gets me.
and jealous!
It feels like something a kid would say about another kid they didn't like, just before the other kid would say "No, YOU'RE stupid!"
Because we compromised
I'm 35. Hearing Phil call someone at 47, "just a kid" makes me feel so young.
I'm 36. I remember being really young and thinking 30's was old as shit. I don't feel old as shit I feel young still now.
@@sickofthelies1627 I’m 38. I thought the same thing. I thought 30s was old as fuck. But I didn’t realize how close your 30s are to your late teens early 20s. Anywho, we should all hold hands and skip together in a park. You fellas down!
@@roejogan1341 Haha only if we do DMT first and sample some Deer meats!
@@sickofthelies1627 I like the way you think.
I’m 47 just a few months ago - I still feel young :)
His poor baby brother Billy, taken so young. If he'd have been there that day, he would have been raising his hand to ask questions and running to eat cake with all the other children.
LMAO 💀
This is amazing 😂
WOW nice comment. Original too.
Billy wasn’t a angel…
That Animal Blundetto hit him in the stroller
I thought he came to America when his regime was overthrown by the ayatolla
who ever thought of that joke was a genius he really looks so much like the shah lmao
@trosky677 after 20 years in the can they told him to "now gittafuggooouuttaaahheeeeere"
He is in the can in Egypt since 1980.
LOL
HAHAHAHAHAHA
This is the most humanized we saw Phil imo.
It shows him question his loyalty to the mob he’s always bragged about. He realizes he wasted 20 years of his precious life and got nothing for it. Surprisingly Butchie reassured him, the same guy who gave Phil up.
It’s also interesting to see his POV with how he feels he’s being pushed around just like his ancestors were and is hell bent on revenge. Which leads to him being too trigger happy and bloodthirsty.
It’s pretty interesting because Phil is always shown as the antagonist. Here we see his POV and tbh, I sympathize w him. Did I mention the guy did 20 years?!? Not a peep!
Ate grilled cheese off the radiator
Jacked off in a tissue
It’s nice that Butch is looking after Phil like that - always an eye out for his friends
lmao I see what you did there, just like Butchie sees things that are in his periphery and in front of him at the same time.
The Flounder…
We don't want your FUHKIN DRILLS
You gotta do what you gotta do…
Yeah right...he's the one that gave the ok to have Phil killed lol
Phil's impatience with kids is awesome.
As he told Vito Jr, he raised kids.... we just never get to see them and they're never mentioned again for some odd reason...
@@jasoncarswell7458 this needs to be on its own separate post and not in the reply section. I know you were replying to his comment but I believe this would get a shit ton of likes.
Honestly I respect what he was trying to teach those kids. Valuable wisdom full of hard truths as opposed to the boomer sensitivity nonsense that kids hear these days
@@jasoncarswell7458 I wished that Phil had given Junior the ole pimp hand.
So are the kids impatience with him, The kids are like F" The history lesson lets get to the cake.
I wish they'd have gone into how many years Phil was in the can for. Major neglect on behalf of the writers.
twenty.
drover110
its mentioned 20 times in the series..he done 20
yea I know mate that's why I wrote twenty!! Twenty is the written form of the number 20- lol
I wasn't referring to you but the 1 you replied to...just couldnt tap on his reply button...lol
Word on the street is, he did 20 years. 20 FUCKING YEARS IN A SHINEBOX!
I have to say that I sympathised with Phil, especially after seeing him shapeshifting into a house so cleverly, a must if you want to step ahead in a bitter mob war. I only wish I knew how many years he spent in the can? That would definitely add to the whole appreciation thing
If only he'd taken the drills, his head wouldn't have ended up like a pancake.
Oh, I'm sure you could find out - maybe go thru all the special features on the dvd set - perhaps someone mentions it in there.
Or depreciation thing! Due to him being a house...😃
Take that piece of shit and get off my stoop
20 years
Most underrated line in this scene. Phil claiming that dingy, miserable bar was his brother’s “favourite place in the whole world” Lmao
It's the Lupertazzi social club, what's so miserable about it
@@muslimpucciOne thing I know for sure,we cant have Mikey fake name in our social club no more.
@@hsgame4088 hysterical lmaooo
The ending to that episode is simply bone chilling. The look on Phil's face, Christopher's half hearted hug with Tony, the music....it was a great foreshadow for the few remaining episodes.
You can tell from that look in Christopher's eyes that he knew that he had sold his soul for "This Thing Of Ours". He gave up Adriana for the sake of the Family, but he knew that he could have saved her, but the pull of the Sword and Gun were too much.
Reminds me like something off the godfather but modernized
totally
@@jameskeyes9112
Oh please. How could he have saved her??
@@trillgates2452 By going into Witness Protection with her would be the only chance possible, and even that would have been risky.
He was not only a painter, but he did medical drawings and he designed a shinebox for the army. Leonardo was a great Italian.
I thought only Sikhs do that
One of the best and most chilling ending montages of the sopranos. You knew here it was going to end badly for absolutely everyone involved.
the music in the background was so eerie too. so much was going on with Phil wanting to take out new jersey completely and Chris and Tony’s relationship going to complete utter shit due to the looks on their faces. The Sopranos did a whole 180 after season 3
Except for Paulie, he survived the Sopranos series by the skin of his nuts!
I like how he connects himself to Da Vinci with only a first name, surface level similarity. Phil always came to the conclusions he wanted, despite everything. Very appropriate characterization.
Great point
Brilliant and hilarious
@@axis7879
And did Medical drawings
@@axis7879 Tbf he did… a tank that wouldn’t work and def was too innovative for the time
I wonder how Phil would have felt had he known about Da Vinci’s sexual orientation.
@@franciscoherrera5577he would’ve realized it ran in the genes
“Because they’re stupid, that’s why” 😂😂😂
AND jealous
Always thought that line was hilarious, coming from an old man.
😂
Phil's pissed off because he's named after a Ballet Costume.
+Paul y bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha....
+George Sandhu How about that little bitch who said "Leotards are for modern dance, in ballet you wear Tutus." and the other little kid says in his best mafia accent "It doesssn't makke a difffference."
Paul y I'll bet the actress who played that little bitch is just about ripe now....
I thought he was named after a SHINEBOX?
@@matthewdunham1689 You're thinking of his mother, nicknamed "The Shinebox."
That slow pan across the pictures of the fallen NY mobsters always gives me goosebumps.
"Can we have cake now?"
Even 6 year-old kids could tell Phil Leotardo was insufferable to listen too.
No he wasn't Mr Cakes. He was pretty articulate
@@DrJ-hx7wv he was an intelligibile asshole
The kids wanted some of Johnny's Cakes
I wonder who would be more annoying to spend an afternoon with, Phil or Paulie.
@@IamtheDesperado I've gotta warn that kid, they're addictive.
RIP frank vincent. he's up there with the big shinebox in the sky
And his shoes are like mirrors ☁️ 😇
and grilled cheese from the radiator
Now go getcha fucking shinebox
R.I.P Ilove him like a brother in law
Has it been 20 years already? I did memtion that, right?
I loved this ending so much, perfect transition into the final episodes. In the baptism montage in The Godfather, the killings were happening during it, but in this scene, it's showing that the murders are coming.
The sacred and the propane
@@cicolasnage5684 the coffee with the chicory
@@AttitudeIndicator incredible. Deserves a standing ovulation
Defintely.Its the Best season ending.And Bloody Chicken song is tailor made for it
Da Vinci was not only a painter but he did medical drawings and made your shoes look like fuckin mirrors. They called him spit shine Leo. He was the best
Sopranos was a brilliant show from the very start...but the arrival of Frank Vincent took it to an even higher level
Like, 20 years in the can type level.
The arrival of Frank Vincent, whatever happened there
@@NotQuiteFirst WHATEVER HAPPENED THERE?!
The folks behind The Sopranos did such a good job matching up music with the scenes. Much of the music they chose wasn't exactly mainstream. Obviously, they put a lot of time and effort into it, and I mean a lot.
RollTide 334 Sil picked most of it
great comment. the music is beyond diverse and great. some are hits from other countries
David Chase picked a lot of it.
RollTide 334 hit or miss honestly. some of em were kinda bad. one of my few complaints of the show. i think this one's ok
oreo J come on now. Most were spot on.
Chickentown fits this scene perfectly.
And let’s not forget, Rock the Casbah being played when Tony runs into Phil
This was a very powerful scene. The viewing of those who passed on the walls, the music, the dialogue.
Phil's obsession with his dead brother, even throwing him a post-mortem birthday, is funny when you go back and watch the episodes with them together and Phil treats Billy like an even bigger schmuck than Little Paulie.
Its not about his brother. Its about his ego.
yeah he's a character study of one of the biggest shitheads ever
Hell that’s how many older brothers treat their younger siblings. I mean his brother was killed right in front of him.
If you think about it, it's all the same. We treat each other like crap while we're alive, and when they die, we all go "he was a good man, God bless". That said, could only be a brother's relationship
@RICO one that I can remember right now off the top of my head is when Angelo gets whacked by them. Billy's role on the show was basically to be Phil's bumbling browbeaten assistant.
Rest In Peace . Probably the most underrated actor ever.
I’d have to say so.. I mean I LEGIT hate the man for things that are not even reality LMAO
Not in my book. There are no scraps in my scrap book.
Yeah I’ve gotta agree, hope to see him in more stuff
@@hullo8246 If you mean see the actor in more stuff, Frank Vincent passed away in 2017 at the age of 80. if you meant something else, my bad.
He was definitely underrared in my opinion as well. Loved him in Sopranos, Casino, Goodfellas, Raging Bull.
Underrated ? What did he do other than play a wiseguy ?
This scene, especially the end with the music, and Phil telling Butch "No more of this" was
simply bone chilling. Amazing acting by Mr. Vincent, and choice of music by David Chase. You just knew this was the beginning of war between Tony and Phil and the conclusion to this great series. God I miss it.
Why does Butch have to turn his head? C’mon!
A thing that Sopranos does very well is show how clueless these people are about the relationship between Italy and Sicily. Never in your whole life you'll see an actual Sicilian being proud of Da Vinci and consider him part of his own history.
Phil's loyalty to his family was his singular redeeming feature. He was a complete monster but that overshadows how much he really loved his brother. That shit haunted him.
He killed his "cousin" vito effectively making orphans and widow of his actual blood cousin Marie Spatafore because the guy was gay....He didnt give a shit about Marie or her kids, did nothing to support them after, he only killed Vito to "save face" amongst gangsters.
Just to think Carmine Sr and Johnny Sack once sat in that bar running the entire family now they are gone.
wow, i will rewatch, i didn't catch that. I have watched the entire series and a bunch of youtube clips and never noticed. Thanks!
Now there in shinebox heaven
family? i told you, they're a glorified crew.
Walt fucking Whitman ova here
For real. NY began and ended with Carmine Sr. He was basically the Godfather.
This scene gave me chills man
this is a great scene. well written.
Hastur Hastur Hastur.
This shinebox gave me the chills.
thegreatcalvinio omg stfu you idiots with your overused shinebox jokes are more annoying than Phil with his mentioning about 20 years in the can ffs
Yeah I know it annoys me too, Now go get your fuckin shinebox!
The beginning of the end for the Soprano pygmy crew
“They disrespected a proud Italian heritage and named us after a ballet costume.” 🤣
that song at the end is dope comes on at the right time
What is the name of it or who sings it?
Jim Mullen chicken town by john cooper clarke
The album is excellent. Beasley Street. My favourite.
@@jimmullen8740 Shinebox by William Benventa
@@adryandunne6534 Agreed, a masterpiece. My favourite line is "Keith Joseph smiles and a baby dies in a box on Beasley Street" although most people would have to google Keith Joseph these days!
Phil's rants are always a win for the viewers
"That's right..it doesn't " the way he says that line so serious to a kid cracks me up every time lol
Best ending to a regular episode of a tv series EVER. You just knew shit was about to start going down on multiple fronts.
One of my favourite scenes from The Sopranos.
RIP Frank Vincent. Thank you for this brilliant acting performance.
Him saying “that’s right, it doesn’t make a difference” is so real, sounds like something a family member would say
Phil wasn't unjustified in his actions. A man's pride is everything
I love how Patty takes Phil by the arm when he says "they're stupid that's why" because she knows he is about to go off.
Phil was a tremendous character
No more shines, Butchie. No more of this.
"hey whats gotten into you? one minute youre over here huggin and kissin and the next thing youre gettin fuckin fresh!"
what am i a mirage?
@Peter D been away 20 f*ckin years
Now go home and get your fucking shinebox!!!
Nice music.
Despite Phil being an evil horrible bastard in every way, I really understand him in this scene when he says "I compromised everything". Guy spent 20 years in the can while his peers were all living the high life, nearly half of his adult life. Never got his revenge for his brothers murder, etc. Obviously all of these things are his own fault one way or another, but I can understand what he's feeling, "compromising" everything, things never being the way he wants them. Compromise is necessary in life of course, but I don't want to be 66 years old thinking I compromised everything just to please others.
“Because they’re stupid. That’s why”
Gets me every time
that weird song at the end enhanced the intensity, goosebumps
Evidently chicken town is the name of the game
Ya that was great, True Detective was great with the music too, they had a few episodes with great musical choices for the ending that this reminded me of
It’s a great song IMO.
John Cooper-Clarke. English poet. Some of his poems were set to music in the mid 1980s and Chickentown was one of them.
The line 'The bloody speed is bloody Surf' is a reference to the habit that the more venal drug dealers had of cutting amphetamine with Surf, the name of a popular laundry washing powder.
Uncle billy's ash container is also a shine box
Every comment section with phil there has be a goodfellas Billy bats reference. Its tradition
@@johnslade9751 No, his kid brother’s ash container.... he was just a fucking kid. murdered by that animal.... I can’t even say his name
The ending of this episode is like a roar. So much turmoil. I remember watching this when it first aired. I was already convinced "The Sopranos" was the best show ever, and when this episode was over, I knew it had taken it up to a whole different level above everything else all over again.
1:10 Phil can turn a historical lesson into a bitter and resentful rant so quickly lmfao.
"My weakness. Sometimes I think it's in my DNA...I'm just too darn nice."
"He would sit with his friends and tell stories about his shinebox, that he loved more than anything, and was so very proud of".
Might be the best one I’ve seen. Fit perfectly
Was there ever another character in a mob story as ridiculed as Phil? Humiliated at every turn, coming out of the closet, spitting image of a Persian dictator, all that compromising he did, morphing into a house, even right down to his name... and his death too. Comedy gold.
I had to look up why people saying he morphed into a house.
@@dylanmujica2466 lmao carmine jr and paulie fucks tony
i know i know for sure
you say hello then i say i do
I think second to Phil, there might be Richie Aprile.
Phil's sad crisis is underscored by those poignant lyrics at the end:
The boxy shine, the shiny box
I love the UNDERSTATED HUMOR in the Sopranos.
Phil: Who is Leonardo Da Vinci?
Me: He designed a shine box
Shut the fuck up already.
And he was an interior decorator and killed 16 Czech's
but his house looked like shit
He's the leader of the teenage mutant ninja turtles.
bhoumik4 yeah, you'd tell that to phil once, or, not at all.
That embrace with Tony and Christopher at the end is dark, its almost like they both knew what would eventually happen.
At 47yrs old Billy was officially the oldest kid in the world at the time of his death.
"... my weakness. sometimes i think it's in my shinebox."
From now on, this shinebox will be right here...
This is the moment Phil decides to go to war with the Sopranos. I love this scene and the one with him talking about "No scraps in my scrapbook."
2019 & this scene still gives me chills
the shah of iran!
rock the casbah
I never got that
As soon as that music comes on you know shits gonna get real!!!!!!!!!!
"Can we have cake now?"
"Fine, but first go home and get your shinebox!"
No more shines Philly no more
0:26 he’d sit here and tells stories about how he murdered women and the kid Jason.
"We are here to celebrate what would've been my brothers, your uncles 47th shinebox"
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
He was killed by a fuckin animal. What kind of animal uncle Phil? A fuckin off the reservation wild Blundetto!
lame joke
Every Sopranos video on youtube has a shinebox joke, and I'm not even mad.
Its getting ridiculous tbh
im with ya.
+Andy M. Every video with Shineboxotardo has to pay homage.
John Butch I'm sick of em read maybe 1 funny comment referring to it
No more shines?
How you pick that music to so perfectly make the tone is beyond me. Pure genius.
"He was not only a painter.
But he designed *shineboxes* for the army"
Its good for Phil he got killed.. because the FEDS were about to nab him on a major RICO case he was about to spend another 20 + fucking years in the can.. some of the charges named in the indictment were: Unlawful Possession of un registered Shineboxes, Illegal Distribution of Shineboxes, Interstate trafficking of Shineboxes. Possession of Shinebox Paraphernalia and Illegal Shinebox Contraband, Counterfit Sineboxes, Promoting Shineboxes, Shinebox Laundering, Recieving Stolen Shineboxes, and Extortion of the Shoe Shine Industry..... as well as Tax Fraud.... Solid case.... they put the final nail in his Shinebox.
Fate worst than death
@jessesam 40 years in the can he didn't have a shinebox, he compromised, he spitshined his shoes and dried them off the radiator.
Long live the shinebox
Accessory to Attempted shinebox, driving shinebox under influence , fraudulance ambargo of gold shinebox exchange, fake and expired shineboxes,
Also felony identity theft for pretending to be a talking house.
The scene with Chris and Tony intense.
3:30 the way Phil's resolve changes and music kicks in- so well done. I think every man faces a point like this in his life where he has to take stock and make major changes for the better.
Ok……….SMELLY🤣😂🤔
I was going to make changes for the better, but I compromised. I sat and watched Sopranos clips in my boxers instead.
I’d like to go to school and have Mr. Leotardo as my teacher
Leotardo, thats my fucking shinebox
+Dr. Death lmfao, that's funny as fuck dude. I loved Goodfellas !!
+Dr. Death It never gets old!
Love how he agreed with that kid. Phil was a man of fact.
I never understood why Phil's family never legally changed their name back to Leonardo.
Because they’re stupid. That’s why.
That’s why👆🏼
The storyline needed it.
@@dryamaka and jealous.
They were too busy setting up a successful shine box business with their pal Tommy.
All of the classic Phil lines in one place.
Billy was just a kid. He compromised. Twenty years in the can. Animal Blundetto, can't even say his name.
Can't even say his name?? You just did, you animal!
Butchie's one eye is looking at Phil, and the other at the Shah of Iran.
Crazy how the biggest psycho on the show was the most wholesome family man second to Johnny Saccs. Maybe the Lupertazzis were the more integrity filled of the two groups.
"This seat at this bar was his favorite place in the whole world" = He was basically just a drunk lol. "He used sit with his friends and tell stories about his family, who he loved very much". = he should have been spending time with his family that he loved, not at the bar. Its like there are 2 sets of dialogue in this scene, one that is said out loud, and the other the viewer thinks of.
“it doesn’t make a difference.”
phil : “.......... that’s right it doesn’t” lmao
Billy Leotardo would have been 47 years old in season 6. Eugene Pontecorvo killed himself at 47. Tony celebrated his 47th birthday in episode 6x13. There seems to be a link between the age of 47 and death.
+Martín Lasarte I hope it's confined to Mafiosi !!
+Martín Lasarte Three o'clock
+Martín Lasarte good hint. the Smorfia is the Book of Dreams, used in Naples to interpret dreams and obtain numbers to play at the Lottery. the number 47 is "the dead"
Agent 47 actually killed all of them.
They were all 46 actually. Gene said he would be fifty in three years which means he would've turned 47 that year....Phil was celebrating Billy's 47th birthday posthumously so Billy also died at 46 but I do think it's symbolic of death. Episode 2 is called 46 long it's about the death of "this thing". From the rat on the news to Brendan stealing the truck after being warned not to. If the mobsters can't keep their mouths shut and underlings don't obey there is no Mafia. Hence Chris "why even have a crew speech". Tony's 47th birthday was the symbolic death of his dominance. He loses the fight to Bobby and even after apologies Tony still goes on about "a few years back before I got shot". Because he's desperate to maintain the idea of being dominant he was trying to make himself believe he was more than anyone else. When he couldn't convince himself he sent Bobby to kill that guy which Bobby had never been asked to do before. That was Tony's way of re establishing hierarchy and dominance.
this scene never ceases to give me chills
“You’re a man Phil. That’s saying a lot nowadays.”
Imagine saying that nowadays...
Soroush Darvish even harder
@@Soil_Bound true it's even more relevant
Damn right,
Phil has got a right to be a little disgusted and sick of the compromises he did do 20 years in the can, like Johnny Sack asked is it all about money? Phil didn't do that time for money but to protect the family and organization whose principles and traditions he believed in to his core. Came back to lesser men
and I think the realization that most never believed in it the way he did, not Rusty or Doc, not Tony Soprano or Little Carmine or any of a hundred.
I'm here to celebrate what would've been Frank Vincent's 87th birthday (April 15, 2024). He loved his family more than grilled cheese on the radiator.....
That was our name originally, Leonardo. But many years ago when my grandpa came over from Sicily they changed it in Ellis Island to Shinebox.
no you didnt. oh ya did..lol
Frank vincent was an amazing actor and this show was iconic because of its excellent cast of fine actors who knew their craft and played it to perfection.
Phil should've made the "it doesn't make a difference" kid right there on the spot.
Sean O'Neal of The A.V. Club wrote that Evidently Chickentown "ranks as one of the show's sharpest and most effective musical moments, somehow capturing the vexation of a New York mafia guy with the words of a British punk who's complaining about flat beer and cold chips." Genius from David Chase.
Phil makes a good point. People show no love for integrity anymore and cast you aside not only when your there but out in the world your nothing
You ve just pointed out why, unconciously, i do root for Phil, eventhough his actions are despicable, as well as Richie Aprile, they were real to the thing, not paulie, not chrissy, not tony, sil was, due to his loyalty and steady will to make things work, from running a club to murder and everything in between. Richie made things for the mob and they gave no respect in return, and yes Richie didnt respect nobody, but from the modern lot, same with Phil, did his time and there is this glorified crew bending everybodys arms, playing dog eat dog, unlike Johnny sack, unlike Jackie sr. Tony thought he was a Ceasar in the flesh after made boss. And the cruelest truth in real life is that anybody out there wants to be a Tony soprano and treated as such, therefore ppl with integrity are cast out and ppl with balls aren t taken seriously anymore. they are treated as noise, literally.
It's not a new thing
Leonardo was a Great Italian!
But I did 20 years in the can.
Whenever I feel old, I come back to hear Phil say; 47, he was a fucking kid.
Amazing how a song like this can make a good ending scene a historical one. Exceptional flow to this show.
What song is this?
@@KunalKeshav-dq6ty
Evidently Chickentown by John Cooper Clarke. Excellent spot for it in the show.
Also season 1 Junior becomes boss
All jokes aside this was well acted by Frank Vincent. We don’t praise the guy enough.
"I fucking compromised everything. I ate cheese off a radiator. I used a sock. To protect the likes of that shinebox Rusty Millio?"
A life was taken. A new life was born.
Such powerful writing and scenes.
How perfectly, darkly ominous was the chosen song, Evidently Chivckentown, by our local bard, Salford's John Cooper Clarke? That and Tiny Tears by the Tindersticks were IMO the best/most-appropriate-for-the-scene two tunes used throughout the entire series.
4:19 im on heroin
