They made it work even though Pesci was in his late 40s playing somebody in their early twenties. They also had Deniro at the beginning playing a character in his 20s. It was such a great film so you were able to suspend disbelief and just enjoy the acting and the story.
Every clip I see of this man reminds of how good an actor he is. His whole demeanour is a mile away from what you'd expect, having seen him on screen. A legend, no doubt.
@Ali Jordan Funny thing if you look at the aftermath of the 9/11 attack everyone on earth suffered except the CIA which suddenly got huge funding increases after years of cuts after the fall of the Soviet Union. Makes you wonder...
I bet Marty was pissed that Pesci was blabbling his big fucking mouth about Casino when he shouldn't that he yelled out " Imma gonna bury this fucker in the fucking movie!" and thus Casino had one of the most brutal death scenes with Pesci getting a beaten with bats and buried alive.
Mario Puzo goes to Bob Evans for loan to pay his bookies. I'm thinking of writing a book about 'the boys', going to call it 'Mafia'. Evans gives him the money for rights to his book about 'the boys', and nobody looked back after the money started rolling. Puzo said he was big library guy, always on lists to borrow books. Realised one day, I can afford to buy books.

Home Alone - Goodfellas?!. No actor has ever been as good in two polaronic roles. I can remember watching Home Alone with my daughter who was 6 or 7 at the time and then i remember putting her to bed and watching Goodfellas. Brilliant and Amazing talent, chuck in My Cousin Vinny who my wife and i Loved and thank you Joe Pesci. You entertained my entire family from my Grandad who was in his 80's to my daughter who was barely born. Thank you so much. Peace.
You're right. They came out around the same time. I was young enough for HA old enough for Goodfellas. I was friends w Tuddy Cicero's (Frank Dileo) son and he had about 50 copies of the vhs. His dad said take one home. He was also Michael Jackson's manager. I still have the VHS from Tookie aka Tuddy.

Pesci is so spot on playing a murderous loose cannon in Goodfellas and Casino that his performances in those films are utterly and perfectly nerve wracking. Those movies are literally scarier than most horror movies.
@@jihigh482 These performances can be scarier than a horror movie to many people, because they are REAL. My wife can't even look at Robert de Niro's face. She knows some real unpleasant fellas in real life, and De Niro reminds her of those people because of his roles. Same thing with Pesci. Some sort of alien monster or demon isn't going to remind her of actual real-life experience she's had and won't be nearly as scary. ps. she grew up in a bad neighborhood
Joe Pesci is a gift to Hollywood pictures. No one could have played the roles he did in the way he did it. Truly amazing.He was so real he was scary. Scary in a good way . Love him!!
So cool hearing Joe bring up putting a movie together with Robert Deniro and Martin S. called “Casino” before it was ever made. What an epic movie that was- one of my all time favorites
My Cousin Vinny. Now that was a great comedy. Never falls flat. Hilarious from beginning to end, complete with a great ending. Joe Pesci is in top form. The whole cast was fantastic. I think Being There with Peter Sellers and My Cousin Vinny are my 2 favorite comedy's of all time.

"my dog loves the pool." to me, that is a freaking GOLDEN LINE, and the audience really missed it. that is exactly my kind of sense of humor. genius comeback that fell on deaf ears.
Joe Pesci is one of those guys that they broke the mold on after he was created. There won't ever be anyone able to do what he can do. He's irreplaceable.
It wasn't Kinnear's show per se. It was a show that ran on NBC. It ran after Letterman, and when he left for CBS it was on after Conan. It had a number of hosts. The first was Costas. When Kinnear left, it was hosted by a number of people before being shifted into "Last Call" with Carson Daly (vomit).
To say the show 'was his' is to say it was created for him imo. Which, it wasn't. Second host, and only for two years. If you're not the first, you'd better host it for a damn long time to call it 'yours'. I seriously doubt he does. Carson took over a show and made it his over 30 years. Johnny created the model. Kinnear was a footnote of a footnote show, and didn't bring anything new.
Gregory Buck Kinnear became the first host of E!'s Talk Soup which he hosted until 1995, he left for NBC late-night talk show Later with Greg Kinnear (1994).
Joe Pesci was literally the most iconic portrayal of a gangster back then, and made you fear the Mafia without even having connections to them. He would be the last person i want to see if I messed up lol
That part in casino, where they digging the graves and his crew beat his brother to death with shovels and he starts to crying histerically cursing, that hit me when I was a kid even tho Nicky was a really bad guy i cried for him lol, I still cry when I watch it and I'm 31 years old, he's acting is so good, he makes you feel for the bad guy. And why did our parents allow us to watch mobster movies in the 90's? the only time they closed your eyes was for the sex parts. Blood and gore it's fake its fine its just a movie, sex scene "I said close your damn eyes" lmao good times.

@@natwalsh2710 It's as if they used the guests fame to falsely usurp their "stardom" by creating a premeditated "banter" to proport what would otherwise be a show with an unintelligible host.
I remember prank calling a local deli with a Joe Pesci soundboard based on Casino. The deli owner thought it was an old woman and kept politely saying "I don't want any problems sweetheart" lmao
This is the first time ive ever seen any clip from Kinnears “Later” show. I remember Howard Stern back in the mid 90s saying who wants to watch that show to see Kinnear doing a Letterman impression... i see what he meant--so obvious hes trying to imitate Letterman!
As an Australian I’ve never understood American’s love for Letterman. I feel like he doesn’t really have a style to imitate. He’s so dull, even when he was young he was like a boring old man without much insight or anything interesting or funny to say. I just don’t get it.
@@justvin7214 alot of the actors were in goodfellas and casino, some of them were even in a bronx tale. The director Martin Scorsese put his mom in the movies too which was awesome. In casino she plays Artie Piscanos mom, and in goodfellas she plays Joe Pesci's mom after the kill Billy Bats
I been looking for this comment thank fuck someone else noticed what a absolute bone head to say that pesci must have been like wow nice one dickhead, especially since Greg was an actor.. Embarrassing much like this whole interview
How a very short, 46 year old man ends up playing a character based on a guy who was about 6'3" and who would have been in his late teens to early 20's during the events in the movie (real life Tommy DiSimone died at age 28).
I may be 25 yrs old however I've seen almost every Joe pesci movie and still feel like I can't get enough of him w that being said he is one of the GOAT
@@natwalsh2710 Bad nutrition is bad for you. Smoking is not. Worse yet is medications given to you by your doctor, non-organic food, CT scans, and people who want to dictate what others should or should not do.
@@money1968 Wrong. It because the masses of asses are eating processed junk, filled with pesticides and growth hormones. If the ate healthy AND took the correct nutritional supplements, they'd never get cancer from smoking, .Most people who smoke eat junk food, drink, and aren't trying to stay healthy. Let them rot. By the way, the HIGHEST rate of lung cancer in the United States is among women who own house cats and who do NOT smoke. The mixture of cat litter, urine and feces is highly carcinogenic,. Smoking does not cause cancer if you eat healthy organic foods, take high quality supplements and exercise.
Pesci's character was based on Tommy Desimone who was a much larger man in physical stature but Pesci's performance is so big it doesn't matter. There are times in Goodfellas when Pesci threatens to take over the movie and when you are working beside the likes of Robert Deniro that is truly saying something.
I love Joe Pesci. He said he had to go to the hospital alone in a taxi when he was really sick and felt so alone with no one to drive him or be with him. My heart went out to him. I got you Joe, been there, done that.
Casino is one of the best movies ever made. And as far as Joe kicking his dog, I highly doubt it. He's playing his bad ass role for the audience. People need to get a grip!
Between Goodfellas and Casino Pesci did My Cousin Vinnie. That's a pretty good three picture run. Not that those were his only 3 films during that span...they're all just pretty fucking rewatchable.
Met him at the Bob Hope classic many years ago. He signed my Goodfellas DVD and was the coolest guy in the world. I thought I had met an old friend! You rock Joe!
It’s crazy to know I was alive during this interview. A kid, around 7 years old, playing with my toys in a corner of a living room. In my pajamas. It’s 7:00pm and it’s a Friday night so I don’t have school. Briefly looking up and seeing my parents watching television and for a moment looking at the TV myself, seeing this random person my mom referred to as an actor named “Joe Pesci” and this other guy talking about things I know nothing about. “What’s a casino?” “What’s a cigar?” “What is goodfellas?” “He said something about kicking a dog. Why would he do that?” Then going back to playing with my toys. Times were much simpler. Glad I got to live through them.
Tommy DeSimone was like in his mid 20's. What they end up doing in the film is make Henry and Tommy kinda the same age, with Tommy a little older. I think Tommy's character is meant to be late 30's. So that's younger than Joe Pesci, but older than the real guy.
I love Joe Pesci. I think he's better than Deniro who I also like. And even though Goodfellas was a bit better than Casino, I feel like Pesci outplayed Deniro in it. And of course in Goodfellas he held his own. Even down to his comedy movies, great. I still love My Cousin Vinny! Pesci a legend...
Yes. I would say so. It's a shame Martin never gave Joe his own movie, although Joe Pecsi for me OWNS every bit of reel he's on screen when he appears in Scorsese films.
I always thought Joe was just behaving as himself in his films. Then I saw With Honors, and realized this is the real Joe. He's actually a very studious actor, highly observant, attentive to details, and eloquent.
“We’re in the process of putting together a movie called ‘Casino’.

I feel bad for him and others that don’t really get respect. :(
@@natwalsh2710 It's as if they used the guests fame to falsely usurp their "stardom" by creating a premeditated "banter" to proport what would otherwise be a show with an unintelligible host.
Glad he didn't go woke like Robert Dinero
Patiently waiting for “The Irishman” to come out.
Do u mean kill the irishman?
@@ryanadkins7923 nope next scorcese pic
@@ryanadkins7923 That was a good film!
@@waynej2608 yeah it was.just watched it recently.its on netflix rite now.but I'll bet a million bucks scorsese's is going to s*** on that one
you were even more patient if you watched it all the way through in one sitting
"you're funny Joe"
Joe: "Funny how?"
I remember prank calling a local deli with a Joe Pesci soundboard based on Casino. The deli owner thought it was an old woman and kept politely saying "I don't want any problems sweetheart" lmao
omg the joe pesci soundboard!!!!! i got in trouble using that lol!!
"i was kicking my dog in the pool"
" BOOOOOOOOOO"
"Hey come on my dog liked the pool"
That was hilarious :D
And "I paid the dog" lmao
My dog loves the pool was amazing. No one in the comments caught how funny that was.
He didn’t really kick an actual doggy, did he?? :’(
@Keir Campbell 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣bless your soul
Only hilarious toward socio-paths who don’t like dogs. Proud of the crowd for speaking up. He never regained them after that
Kinnear is almost as annoying as Jimmy Fallon.
I like Jimmy Fallon better.
I had no clue he had a talk show.
@@bigduke12180ify Same, I only recognise him from Friends 😂
I think Jimmy is much more annoying but I hear ya
@@bigduke12180ify now you see why "had" is appropriate.
Cemented his status as a Living Legend. Joe is one of the greatest.
Casino is one of my all time favorite movies.
+ As good as it gets for me, starring Greg here. lol.
I crack your fucking head in front of everybody in the bank. Lol
I just saw the movie last night for the first time, and I loved it!
The host could have played the hillbilly who can't supervise the slot machines.
Such an underrated comment.
More useless than tits on a boar ;)
Sometimes people gotta win
He could of played Artie Piscano, that guy was such a mess he could fuck up a cup of coffee.
This is the first time ive ever seen any clip from Kinnears “Later” show. I remember Howard Stern back in the mid 90s saying who wants to watch that show to see Kinnear doing a Letterman impression... i see what he meant--so obvious hes trying to imitate Letterman!
As an Australian I’ve never understood American’s love for Letterman. I feel like he doesn’t really have a style to imitate. He’s so dull, even when he was young he was like a boring old man without much insight or anything interesting or funny to say. I just don’t get it.
If joe Pesci started cursing at me, I'd instantly shit my pants and give him anything he wanted.
I have no plans of making that guy get piss!
Twisted Soul lol
Ur a bitch
in goodfellas pesci shot someone in the foot. he didn't need to bring his gun to this interview, kinnear shot himself in the foot just fine .
The guy he shot in the foot played Christopher in The Sopranos.
@@justvin7214 who shoots someone else in the foot
@@tillerman7272 Just like Joe Pesci killed Frank Vincent in Goodfellas and was killed BY Frank Vincent in Casino
@@justvin7214 alot of the actors were in goodfellas and casino, some of them were even in a bronx tale. The director Martin Scorsese put his mom in the movies too which was awesome. In casino she plays Artie Piscanos mom, and in goodfellas she plays Joe Pesci's mom after the kill Billy Bats
Greg Kinnear hosted a show? He seems like a younger, handsome David Letterman.
Greg never did get that part in Casino.
shoe shiner :P
He was Carmine. Fucking casuals
David Hall Carmine left though right?
Blanket!
That's because he had to go home and get his fucking shinebox.
one of only a few joe pesci interviews, very grateful
I know from a friend who met Pesci in NYC back in the late 90s that Pesci much prefers to smoke blunts. For real.
Wait up and we can all leave together. That way we don’t go staggering out one at a time like a bunch of hobos.
Gary Evans u live that line 😆
"you talking to me" is De Niro, you numnutz
William James Glover yeah I know
I been looking for this comment thank fuck someone else noticed what a absolute bone head to say that pesci must have been like wow nice one dickhead, especially since Greg was an actor.. Embarrassing much like this whole interview
De Niro was in the movie, maybe he was just referring to that rather than trying to do an impression of Pesci's character
@@kiely4561 that was my take on it, too.
“You talkin to me?”
Thats deniro bud. Good attempt.
How a very short, 46 year old man ends up playing a character based on a guy who was about 6'3" and who would have been in his late teens to early 20's during the events in the movie (real life Tommy DiSimone died at age 28).
Ask your shinebox bitch!
The guys height was the least significant thing about him that's how.
I may be 25 yrs old however I've seen almost every Joe pesci movie and still feel like I can't get enough of him w that being said he is one of the GOAT
This guy was perfect in Home Alone too🤣😂
AH back when they SMOKED on TV.
Smoking is bad for people. Hope he quit.
@@natwalsh2710 Bad nutrition is bad for you. Smoking is not. Worse yet is medications given to you by your doctor, non-organic food, CT scans, and people who want to dictate what others should or should not do.
@@tonys4396 bro smoking is bad end of. All them nasty chemicals going into your body
@@money1968 Wrong. It because the masses of asses are eating processed junk, filled with pesticides and growth hormones. If the ate healthy AND took the correct nutritional supplements, they'd never get cancer from smoking, .Most people who smoke eat junk food, drink, and aren't trying to stay healthy. Let them rot. By the way, the HIGHEST rate of lung cancer in the United States is among women who own house cats and who do NOT smoke. The mixture of cat litter, urine and feces is highly carcinogenic,. Smoking does not cause cancer if you eat healthy organic foods, take high quality supplements and exercise.
@@tonys4396 are you a smoker ?
that guy was a talk show host??
Mike Johnson yea for like 7 years back in the 70s
lol,yeah I was wondering the same
@@meowdalachow7932 Let's make that 5 years from '91 till '96, when he quit to pursue his movie career. I remember as I watched his last show.
Shows clearly weren't as sanitized and polished as they are today. Which made for some awkward interviews but could also make funnier improvisation.
Pesci's character was based on Tommy Desimone who was a much larger man in physical stature but Pesci's performance is so big it doesn't matter. There are times in Goodfellas when Pesci threatens to take over the movie and when you are working beside the likes of Robert Deniro that is truly saying something.
I never realized he had a facelift to make him look younger in that role.
I'm glad that Joe fought for that role, he played it so well.
It might have been a whole different movie. I doubt it would've been as good.
I never knew Greg Kinnear had a talk show
For good reason.
"Spider Spider, you know you're a fuckin' mumblin' stutterin' little fuck, you know dat?"
Why don't you go fuck yourself Davey
David letterman looks so young here.
Haha good one
lol
LOL
Tony de la tuna Go get your eyes examined
Manuel Gomez Go get a sense of humor first before he does all that.
The good old times where you could smoke wherever you want
Better times now as non smokers dont get to smell that vile stuff.
I didn't know Greg Kinnear had a talk show. Pretty good. Joe Pesci is such a great actor. I can't wait for The Irishman.
God, I forgot Kinnear had a show way back then. I might have seen this. The mid-'90s, before America turned to shit.
Imagine watching that show and hearing about Casino for the first time. Not realizing how legendary that movie is before it even started filming.
I love Joe Pesci. He said he had to go to the hospital alone in a taxi when he was really sick and felt so alone with no one to drive him or be with him. My heart went out to him. I got you Joe, been there, done that.
Would of been better if Greg Kinnear at the start said "she packed my bags....last night..pre flight, zero hour
I like Pesci, he's a legend. But I don't like this Kinnear host!
Casino is one of the best movies ever made. And as far as Joe kicking his dog, I highly doubt it. He's playing his bad ass role for the audience. People need to get a grip!
He threw the dog like a bitch after getting his sshinebox
Joe Pesci how I secured role in good fellas ,. He's Joe Pesci that's how
Between Goodfellas and Casino Pesci did My Cousin Vinnie. That's a pretty good three picture run. Not that those were his only 3 films during that span...they're all just pretty fucking rewatchable.
Met him at the Bob Hope classic many years ago. He signed my Goodfellas DVD and was the coolest guy in the world. I thought I had met an old friend! You rock Joe!
It’s crazy to know I was alive during this interview. A kid, around 7 years old, playing with my toys in a corner of a living room. In my pajamas. It’s 7:00pm and it’s a Friday night so I don’t have school. Briefly looking up and seeing my parents watching television and for a moment looking at the TV myself, seeing this random person my mom referred to as an actor named “Joe Pesci” and this other guy talking about things I know nothing about. “What’s a casino?” “What’s a cigar?” “What is goodfellas?” “He said something about kicking a dog. Why would he do that?” Then going back to playing with my toys.
Times were much simpler. Glad I got to live through them.
Thanks for letting him finish the story...
Casino, great fucking movie!
I wasnt even aware he was supposed to be young guy in the movie
Yes he was supposed to be..
The character he played in the movie is 6 years younger than Ray liotta's character..
The real guy he played Tommy Two Guns DeSamone was young , 6'2” and and built like a tank. That's why Scorsese didn't want to cast him in that role
Tommy DeSimone was like in his mid 20's. What they end up doing in the film is make Henry and Tommy kinda the same age, with Tommy a little older. I think Tommy's character is meant to be late 30's. So that's younger than Joe Pesci, but older than the real guy.
I would love to watch the tape of him acting in his house.
this guy doesnt go down on women
Elliot Black
You are what you eat.
+No Town So that's why you consistently eat bundles of sticks?
but I do... and I literally try to climb into their womb. Tell me something Elliot.. have you ever head fisted a woman?
No need to; women go up on him instead.
Found this in my recommended after the Irishman
My favourite actor. I wish he was younger.
1:29 "I went to Mike Westmore, who is a friend of ours.."
He was born for the role xD
I love Joe Pesci. I think he's better than Deniro who I also like. And even though Goodfellas was a bit better than Casino, I feel like Pesci outplayed Deniro in it. And of course in Goodfellas he held his own. Even down to his comedy movies, great. I still love My Cousin Vinny! Pesci a legend...
Yes. I would say so. It's a shame Martin never gave Joe his own movie, although Joe Pecsi for me OWNS every bit of reel he's on screen when he appears in Scorsese films.
That's cause Goodfellas was based on a true story.
In Casino, like Nicky said to Ace, “You only exist out here because of ME!”
@@truthsterwakeupworldplease8875 Casino was based on a true story too.
I always thought Joe was just behaving as himself in his films. Then I saw With Honors, and realized this is the real Joe. He's actually a very studious actor, highly observant, attentive to details, and eloquent.
Goodfellas and Heat are arguably two of the best crime sagas ever made outside of the Godfather
Agreed
Casino as well bro
I love Greg Kinnear as an actor, but that man is not a talk show host.
Right, he interrupted a few great comments here!
Better than Dick Cavett
A living legend, realize that before we lose him.
Anyone else think this interview was cringe
Very!
Kiowa Moss yer maws cringey
What do you mean by "cringe"? & what parts exactly made you shiver from discomfort?
Ok, I thought it was Joe smoking a cigar that made people feel uneasy "cringed". Joe's got a lot of charisma no doubt.
yeah cuz of the SJW crowd...
