Joe Pesci was the best casting in The Irishmen IMO


So I just watched Martin Scorsese's The Irishmen. And I believe Joe Pesci was the best casting choice to play Russel Bufalino. I had this image of Joe Pesci being a violently dangerous mafia guy who can be trusted to kill you for any reason he deems fit. Taking this image from Goodfellas and Casino.So now we have him playing Russ. A calm well collected focused leader of the mafia. And I can't help but be afraid of him. Not because of anything he does in he movie particularly but because I infer what he must have done to get to the top of the food chain. Obviously I know that all 3 movies are not connected. I just think it's interesting to take a character actor like Pesci and use that image to create a backdrop for a completely different character in Russ via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2qhtNeQ
