I liked the story about how he only agreed to play Paulie Walnuts under the condition that no plotline could involve his character being a rat because he didn't want the real-life mobsters he worked for in his youth to think he was a snitch.

Well mission failed, he totally ratted Ralphie out.

quote:

Paulie got his nickname "Paulie Walnuts" due to hijacking a truck in the early 1990s which he believed to be filled with television sets, but only contained walnuts.

thanks for making me look that up, i didn't know that was the origin.

Tony absolutely depressed at how things are run in the US, realizing how small potatoes he is compared to the real deal Cosa Nostra. Christopher coming off of dope with a Fendi gift he bought at the fuckin airport, and Paulie looking happier than a pig in poo poo to be back in Jersey oblivious to all of it. Absolutely iconic scene.
