GoodFellas

As the film begins, Henry (played by Christopher Serrone) is a youngster. His family lives across the street from a taxi stand that is also a local mob headquarters. Admiring the criminals' wealth and clout in the community, Henry begins doing the odd job for them, parking their Cadillacs during card games, selling untaxed cigarettes out of the trunk of a car results in Henry's first arrest, during which he maintains his silence and doesn't say anything. Jimmy (played by Robert DeNiro) praises his silence and awards him with a generous amount of money, like he does with any person he knows. Money handed out just for the guy opening the door or just even having a conversation with him.

Cold brutality. Tommy (played by Joe Pesci) begins working with Jimmy as he comes infront of Henry. They both get along and become very close. But, owing to Pesci's homicidal temper, it emerges that his career outlook is also limited. All three work for local mob boss Paul Cicero (Paul Sorvino). Fated downfall. Generally, Goodfellas is concerned with Pesci and De Niro's climb up the mob ladder and its effects on Liotta, but Scorsese's rich tapestry is both broader in scope.

Awards

Pesci won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his performance, and Goodfellas earned nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress (Bracco), Best Editing, and Best Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium.
