Goodfellas technically wasn’t Italian mafia as none of them were made

Gangsters never had a code ever they say they do so they don’t cry themselves to sleep every night. Everyone needs to be the good guy in their own story even if they know they’re not.

"there's no honor among thieves" is one of the realest bars ever dropped

And if you wanna really tie it in, The Irishman is a well made deconstruction on the entire genre as it highlights exactly why all of it was so violent and pointless. Such an underrated movie these days.

You read way too much into Godfather’s universe.

Is it weird that I think the God Father is more metaphorically the government while goodfellas was just how they really where during the 60s and 70s?

Godfather is set in the 40s and 50s, when the mob did have a code. Goodfellas is set in the 70s, when certain figures threw the code out of the window. But the code lived for many years and was what held the mob together until the 70s.

Two different eras of the mafia, the godfather was what the mafia used to be and goodfellas is what they were becoming.

It helps that goodfellas is a true story based on a book that details the life of Henry hill and his time in the Mafia. There’s even a documentary about his life during and AFTER his life in the mob

I love how good fellas show you how things are really are. I think when hinry was a teen and hot arrested then deniro character told him he did good by not snitching that set up the whole movie for me

But isn’t the Mafia still operating though? Just not the way it was in the 70s to 90s. Like the Yakuza today

the godfather is definitely what they were. Were there mixtures of hostility, and violence. Undoubtedly. But the whole mafia lifestyle is a sophisticated rule following life

I think goodfellas romanticizes the life to an extent by making it look really cool (atleast in the first half)

Idk if im remembering this right but didn’t the consultant on godfather run an org to portray Italians better in the media, and then got assassinated cuz he was mob tied?

The characters in godfather are not ethical and did not live by any serious code it’s broken constantly.

that bit about them not following their own code reminded me of both European knights and the tenets of chivalry, and also samurai with their Bushido. both were quite famous at breaking their group's "codes" very frequently lol
