Great movie! A real classic. Saw the movie 4 times, read the novel twice.

It's probably in the top 5 all-time best (the other 4 in my opinion would be "Casablanca", "On the Waterfront", "The Godfather", and "Lawrence of Arabia").

You've got to mean Godfather II Will.....far superior.

Will on your list you get no argument from this corner.

One could definitely make a case for the second one, Russ (though I wouldn't say "far").............Les, I was also thinking "The Graduate", too.

When I scan the dial and I happen on "Goodfellas", I cannot not watch it. I mean, just for frigging Pesci alone.
