Eric Roberts, you underrated amazing man. Did you notice how he is almost in tears at the beginning when he gets towed? His character work in this movie is so dynamic.
I agree man. It's almost like he IS Paulie. Only somebody that could play somebody that fucked up that accurately REALLY has to be.... that fucked up. There has to be a reason he never made it big... I dunno.... A fucking classic man.... I mean to have any performance THIS incredible is a work of art that rivals the Mona Lisa...
I met Eric Robert’s at a film festival. He and his wife were so friendly… he walked up to me and said “ Hi I’m Eric”. I said “ Cop shit his pants”! At first he didn’t get it but then he did. A really nice man..
@@michaelscolasr3894 Me too. I love it when Eric (Paulie) walks backward in the street, slapping his hands yelling "Cop shit his pants...cop shit his pants."
I like how they play the Irish music to match the characters in this scene, and Summer wind to match who the main characters are playing, although they are actually Irish in real life. Also of course,the city streets as a backdrop, and my hometown favorite Monmouth Park. What a Movie!
Pope of Greenwich Village is one of those cinematic keepers you can watch once a year for the rest of your life. Rourke and Roberts are a perfect match but the cinematography and direction are also perfect for this film.
There truly is no price you can put on a moment of laughter like this. Paulie reminds of the most atrocious and horrible person I ever had to endure, but every so often he would have the most incredible moments of hilarious revenge and all kinds of other nonsense, occur from totally nonsensical, all out of proportion schemes that would leave me dead from laughing so hard. I'll also admit those random 100 seconds of uniqueness/uncontrollable laughter do NOT cancel out the other 23 hours, 58 minutes and 20 seconds of every day of life.
Great scene! It was actually filmed at Castle Hill and Westchester Avenues. The bar they’re hanging out in is a Dunkin Doughnuts/Baskin Robbins now. I work 5 minutes from here.
Great scene, every so often I will pull it up and it always makes me laugh, I know we need the police and they have a difficult job, there are some great cops out there but there's always a jerk out there too , someone that was bullied in highschool or felt like he didn't fit in, and now he has a badge, club , and a gun , instead of being there to serve and protect they act like they are our boss and lord over us , that's the guy this scene was made for
I like the Parachute drop going on in the background. I was very small when My Paternal Grandfather passed away . He was very Young when He was in the Italian Army and fought at the battle of Adwa Abyssinia in 1896. He barely escaped capture with His Life. He was from Lonate Pozzola and came out to California North of San Francisco to work as a machinist and Blacksmith for the Railroad. I learned a lot from My Uncles about their experiences as infantrymen in WW2 all aspects of their service. I would like to have been able to ask My Grandpa about His . What they ate , what they thought about the War they were in , how He escaped capture after a major defeat in a unfamiliar land with enemies all around. Making His way to another Camp. All I know is that He Told My Dad , His youngest of five sons , that they ( the Italian’s ) had them ( the Abyssinians ) stacked like cordwood. He told My older Uncles ( My Grand parents also had Seven Girls. ) that there were so many and they just kept coming faster that they could shoot them. In the 1980’s I did a job for a old Italian Man who had been in the Italian Army in WW1 . He said the Italian Government still sent Him a check for His service
Cop: (at 2:07) "Have my drink ready by the time I come out." Ginty: (at 2:15) "Fat bastard is getting ONE Measured Shot and not a drop more." Cop: (at 3:13) "I know you measured out my shot. And even if you didn't, I'm having another anyway, just because I can."
@@jaykapolka6111 i think 884 means poster cut off the actual edit in the movie itself and the poster cut seconds before to make his own clip look neat. I see what 884 means, the movie's edit was very funny. The movie's editor cut half way through the final use of the word 'pants' to suggest even more that Paulie was just in paroxysms of joy at that moment.
Decades later and I can still laugh my ass off at this scene, one of the greatest!
Great acting. Met Mr. Roberts once. Super polite.....

He was supposed to let me go!

I get a huge sense of satisfaction watching this.

He was crooked cop anyway!

Cop shit his pants I’m still laughing 40 years later

One of my top 3 movies of all time!!!!
"Did you shit your pants?"
"Well, I didn't think you'd let me shit yours!"
One of the best movies ever made
I met the bartender in this scene at a bookstore in LA
He told me his father brought him to that very bar for his first drink when he was a kid
Bartender is Irish...
@@sbakernyc5761And, he was BORN in The Bronx.
@e.l.norton did he have an Irish accent in real life?
@@sbakernyc5761 Noup!
@@sbakernyc5761 No
The NY I remember, Love and Miss! Fantastic movie and many NY'ers can relate to many scenes in this movie!

It looks like that building was torn down recently. So much of this city has sadly been erased.
The meter maid couldn’t find a dunny.
This wins the prize for Twitchiest Performance of All Time.
It pisses me off that they took the full movie off of you tube, and you can't re-buy it.
My favorite movie of all time. Up there w Amadeus, Casablanca, the lives of others
My favorite scene in the whole movie! HILARIOUS!! The crooked cop got what he deserved.
Great scene! It was actually filmed at Castle Hill and Westchester Avenues. The bar they’re hanging out in is a Dunkin Doughnuts/Baskin Robbins now. I work 5 minutes from here.
Gentrification Blues. Stay strong out there..
Underrated classic. Eric Roberts steals every scene.
Classic movie, one of the all time greats!!!
Wish I could do this to a meter maid in NYC. They're vultures.
Do this to a cop today and they’d charge you with attempted murder of a police officer.
That's NOT a Cop... that's a METER MAID.
He's an LEO... aka the enemy. Score one for the good guys here.
Best part of the film...
Best scene of the whole fuckin movie
Fantastic Presentation!
Sometimes you gotta cowboy it chalootz
it cracks me up how excited he is about it. "this cop!..this cop!... SHIT! HIS! PANTS!"
You can really see Eric Roberts sister In his face here
I saw that a few times in this movie. They look more alike than most fraternal twins....especially when young.
Jerry (when’s the last time you saw your nads) Nadler of New York City needs to watch this scene from the great movie The Popes of Greenwich Village
Lmao

That’s evil to do to somebody lol, but hilarious 🤣
Exactly was once on the erceiving end.Its so cruel.
Not as evil as a tow job!

What whiskey is the cop drinking lol
If Police Commissioner Frank Reagan were there he would rip that Cop a new one for using his position for extorting free Whiskey from Ginty!
Commissioner Reagan would blast this guy's dereliction of "duty"
Great scene. Great movie. Not a “cop” though. A traffic agent. A monumental difference
Encore!
Great movie
Does it take a long time to work? it ain't slow.
Little whiskey good for ya
Back when the still had Irish in the Bronx
😉 it ain't slow
That was hilarious! 🤣🤣
I just can't stand Robert's dopey voice.
I lived on castle hill all my life !! Lol
What was th e name of the bar?
The Park Castle
How are they gonna prove assault on a public servant with a load of shit in his pants?
What is the song in this clip?
Its called "Har-Dee-Fiddle-Dee-Day" by Tow Truck Tommy and the Squatin' Cops!
Sandstorm by darude
castle Hill ave bx ny i lived not to far from here
Let’s calm down a little. Underrated actor? How about over-emoting every scene he’s in? Get’s tiresome and irritating.
Here because of bill burr
Same
Really?!? What did ol' Billy red balls say about the pope??
dude you cut off the best part and put all the boring stuff before... whered you learn to edit videos?
What part is that? This shows the whole thing

Indeed!
How dare you say it’s a stupid movie. It’s a classic film.
Eric Roberts acting sucks
Eric Roberts is a great actor! Watch the full version of Pope, Runaway Train and Star 80.
jasona9 Someday...but from what I've seen in this movie...his acting choices reek
@@jasona9 I didn't know he was in runaway train
Wrong
Yeah he’s a rich famous actor and you’re a loser on RUclips talking shit. I’d say it’s you who sucks.
Diaper Don shit his pants AGAIN!
