How the iconic 'Funny how?' scene from the Scorsese classic 'Goodfellas' was born from a real-life encounter with a mobster.
beat sheet
- Joe Pesci drew inspiration for his legendary 'Funny how?' line from a tense real-life interaction with a made man in a restaurant, showcasing his ability to improvise and nail mob-boss intensity.
- Director Martin Scorsese loved Pesci's gritty, off-the-cuff delivery so much that he kept the scene largely unscripted, allowing the actor to channel his inner wiseguy and create one of cinema's most quotable moments.
