(Gambling911.com News Wire) – During a Q&A session this past week to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the film release “Goodfellas”, that movie’s writer Nick Pileggi told audience members that many of the actors demanded cash payments in lieu of checks.
“They were paid out of petty cash,” Pileggi told audience members at a Film Forum on West Houston Street in Manhattan Tuesday night.
Richard Johnson of PageSix.com writes:
When Warner Bros. asked them to provide Social Security numbers, they recited too many digits, or too few.
“Goodfellas” is widely revered as one of the greatest mobster flicks of all time. The film narrates the rise and fall of Lucchese crime family associate Henry Hill and his friends over a period from 1955 to 1980.
