"Jimmy was a good man. You know? He had a nice family too, Yeah. Yeah. I know. I never wanted it to go that far. I picked us over him. Fuck em, fuck em" The loyalty between them and friendship meant everythinh to buffalino. Its also very poignant on and off screen as they both know there time in life is close to an end - off screen both de niro and pesci know after all these years and great movies they did together this is the last and pesci being a part of this movie after many years since his last is a sign of that.
I agree. Irishman might be, other than Lord of The Rings, my most memorable film ever. It has a beauty that is unmatched in story telling, characters, and of course the strong character of 1950s America.
