A few days ago to mark the passing of one of the most recognized mob actors, Frank Vincent, we decided to create a poll to see which film you thought was his best. Let’s face it, there have been a number of films that have shone through, so we had trouble reducing the list down to just 6. But we did, and up for vote were:
Goodfellas
Casino
Gotti
This Thing of Ours
Raging Bull
The Sopranos
Chicago Overcoat
After a few days of voting we had an outright winner. Goodfellas screamed to the top of the polls early on, and finished with nearly half of the votes.
That’s right, Vincent as Billy Batts topped the pile, memorable for that great quote:
Now go home and get your fucking shine box.
