Step.

What is that, Lou?

- Jewellery and a balaclava.

The car of a thief.

Nice catch.

Where to go?

- The workshop. We demolish him!

Stop, come back.

My car.

Leave that stuff but. What are you doing?

One thing I quickly.

If you show fear,

calculates this city with you.

Rule two:
Pick up the spoils

without much fuss.

Rule Three:
Do not open your mouth.

Unless you are at the dentist.

Only if you bring it out alive.

And I did it.

The question is:
What should I

with life in 't prospect?

Crazy. When I look back,

everything has changed. Everything.

There are a hundred guests

who want to kill me.

I see.

A coward dies a thousand times.

I die but once.

Our gang, the Rampers, was just

the reserve bank of the Cosa Nostra.

Everyone wanted to participate

in the highest division.

The question was: Who is

the first 't field in sent?

"I made him a offer he could not refuse."

- Even my grandmother mimics Brando better.

"If my son by lightning

affected, I blame you."

The best was:
"Leave the gun but are,

but take the cannoli's it."

"Fredo, you're my brother and I love you,

but once you never against the family."

Look at that moment.

I get palpitations.

Joey, join us.

- Sammy, how are you?

I'll be right back.

What are you doing out?

- We'll go drinking.

We are going to gamble?

Put Camille greetings.

The best.

- I'll see you in the "Push-Push".

You wish.

There you have it not for tools.

We go.

- Why?

Suzy 'Cream Cheese' wait.

- On a sandwich.

I must go.

- What did you do?

I got up early for school.

For beauticians.

Do you love me for a fool?

Did I say that?

- You're not a sissy?

These girls were to get eaten

and I'm the only normal guy.

What are you doing? This is much too short?

Do you see that?

I want to look like Vogue.

Shut up and let me do my job.

What did you say?

- I'm so ready.

Look what you've done.

In the five years that I come here,

I have never been treated.

Louie with his plans.

You know what you should be?

Construction Worker.

This is not a job.

- Where do you find these broads?

Those broads I do not.

- What then?

If I see her, I know.

Someone with intelligence, character.

Someone who suits me.

- You know Nicky Scibetta's sister?

Debra?

- That's a girl with class.

Sometimes you have never

seen a girl standing...

But... if you r d better learn

know, it's touch.

So it was with Debra.

Could. I've never been outside

New York.

I did some traveling.

Florida, LA.

- What did you say?

I had to get out.

I wanted to be an actor.

How long have you been there?

- Two weeks.

Then it was really serious.

They said I was too small.

But I have a nice head.

They talk but what.

You also have a nice cup

and I find not too small.

Cute girl, huh?

She is the faithful type.

They will not let you down.

I told you it was a girl with

class was?

I also have one and it's serious.

- You serious? Make it equally.

Her name is Linda, she's a Jewish.

She was five o'clock this morning with me.

Then you must be tired.

- We have hacked phones.

I want to be there

d'r when you propose to your mother.

I love her.

How is she?

- Beautiful.

Lefty, Tony, how is he?

I'll see you later.

- I want that Jewish ever seen.

What kind of job?

- According to my uncle you can.

Someone 'm screwed.

- I beat it well together.

That's not enough.

This is a big job.

I'll do anything you ask.

We went for a drink with Joey Colucci.

We went home.

This would change my life.

And he wins as fifteen thousand.

- And it's still a loser too.

He always wins. I do not understand.

You do not have to be smart to

to win the lottery.

What is this noise?

- T-Rex. From England.

It's not that bad.

- That they prohibit.

I think it's good.

- Is there no Italian music?

Let him listen as he likes.

That I forgot.

This is Joey's evening.

Tony just wanted the wife of Joey.

Shortly afterwards he married her.

The bastard.

The next day I noticed something.

I had no regrets or guilt.

I felt only one thing: Power.

What expectations do you have for?

From the life I mean.

Married. Two, three children...

That's a big garden.

I love horses.

- I also, at the racetrack.

I have not got all day.

Is it going to?

Not bad, huh?

- It's beautiful.

And what do you expect from life?

Give me but Manhattan.

- Do you live there?

No, I mean the building there.

One day I want to be able to say:

"See that building over there?

I've worked on."

You have big dreams. I like that.

- You must also be true.

I will not stay all my life

one hustler.

I've heard about you. You are notorious.

Are you mean?

I will be good for you. I promise.

Toddo Aurello, a capo of the

Gambino family wanted to see me.

I had found the right woman

and I had a goal.

I played in the top division.

How are you?

- Say Toddo.

You know the ropes.

They had seen me fight

with a boy who had stolen my bike.

When they called me Sammy "The Bull"

and has since remained so.

I have orders from the top.

You work for me now.

Paul Castellano.

- No names like.

You apply twice a week with me.

- Clear.

And they can only deal with you

my permission.

Can you handle that?

You bet.

Only Sevito and I play this game.

The other cards and laughing at us.

I know this game.

These are the pawns. Which should

protect important documents.

As the runner and the horse.

In our borgata, our family,

that the capos.

Which in turn protect the king.

These should always be covered.

He should never be free.

Does not matter.

Toddo took me in and took me

under his wing.

He was my second father.

My father was a goeierd,

but that he was cheated.

He had to be protected

by people like Toddo, people like me.

What are you staring at?

Sammy, come here.

This is Sammy 'The Bull'. Let him inside.

- You're a celebrity.

You do not have to wait.

If anything, ask for

Mikey 'The Bat'.

And my buddy Louie?

If he hears you, he's okay.

Have fun.

Toddo let me turn up every day.

I watched as he was at work.

He steamed me ready for life.

I did not bother.

Does not matter. Sit down.

That guy whined but

money on his credit.

Then asked Toddo what to do.

I said:
"We are looking at the other guy

and break his legs."

Then Toddo that person come.

And who came up with a different story.

What do you think of these?

This should be your pick.

I think they are equal.

- And yesterday you believed that other.

Everyone has their own story.

But you must listen to both parties.

If you decide to participate, without

either to hear stories, do not you long.

That will be your downfall.

Folks, go all equally stand.

We drink at Sammy Gravano.

Sammy and Debra, I have given you more or

more linked.

But now it's up to you,

so do not come complaining.

I drink to Sammy Gravano.

The nicest guy in Bensonhurst.

- Do not overdo it.

Where's that kiss?

I love you.

You must believe it. Cheers.

A man is nothing without a good woman.

- I 'il drink.

With us is not true.
