Goodfellas hit American theaters in 1990 to widespread critical acclaim and is still considered one of the top movies in the genre. Though the film quickly earned its place in American film history with stellar performances all around, the casting could have gone very differently. The late Ray Liotta played mobster-turned-government witness Henry Hill, but Alec Baldwin, Val Kilmer and Nicolas Cage also pursued the role, while Tom Cruise reportedly was given first right of refusal. John Malkovich was discussed for the part of James Conway before Robert De Niro recommended himself for the part and Melanie Griffith and Madonna were both considered for the role of Karen Hill.
Episode 25!
I want to take a moment to point out an excellent show on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you're getting your podcasts: https://youtube.com/
John puts on a great show and hosts an eclectic assortment of guests all of whom can tell you about mob life from INSIDE the organization. It's like listening to one of Napoleon's infantrymen telling stories about the seige of Berli ! Great stuff! Great show!!!
John Livia has an interview channel like no other. Interviews from the adult entertainment industry, true crime, former mafia members, outlaw bikers, and man...
This day in 1960 marked the theatrical release for Ocean’s 11. We might be biased, but this movie had one of the most iconic casts.
It's a man's world out there???
