Goodfellas, 1990. Directed by Martin Scorsese and stars Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta, Joe Pesci, Lorraine Bracco and Paul Sorvino.



Critically acclaimed and made a reasonable, if not massive profit; doubling its money.

one of my fav lines ... Tuddy: Well, from now on, any letter from that school to that kid's house comes
directly here. You understand? Another letter from that school goes to that
kid's house: in the fuckin' oven you're gonna go head first!

Henryvoiceover) That was it. No more letters from school. No more letters
from truant officers. In fact, no more letters from anybody. Finally, after a
couple weeks, my mother had to go down to the post office to complain.

Poor old Jimmy the gent failed to reach parole. I always have issues with making real gangsters look cool in film, but in a way, that is the story of America.
Anyway, its a stinker of a hood good watch.

I think that if Goodfellas doesn't put you off the gangster's life then nothing will!

Paulie was my favourite character. Tommy was a psycho, Jimmy was a paranoid and Henry was a rat.

I'm just reading 'Sunburn' by Laurence Shames. A paperback story that's full of similar wiseguy lowlifes. Good fun!

The Seventh Veil, 1945. Directed by Compton Bennett and starring James Mason and Ann Todd.



Filmed on a relatively low budget of under £100,000, the film was the biggest British box-office success of its year.

Picture quality stinks but sound is clear.

This was the film that produced my Gran's hatred of James Mason... as he shut the piano lid on the girls fingers.. she didnt care that he was just playing a role.. the hatred was palpable.....no reasoning could budge her
