@@phil-Leotardo.171 your bruddah billy he was just a kid... Hehe

I thaught they just wanted to keep distance between them and the hit

I’m Italian and I don’t speak a word, my parents and aunts and uncles do but none of their kids, we’re all Americanized lol.

I found it hilarious that they have an ethnic slur for real Italians. That's just too much.

@@morallybankrupt1461 You mean Itlian American not actual Itlalians haha

as far as I know the dialogue was not italian but strictly naples dialect. I'm italian native (north west) and I almost didn't understand a damn thing, I just recognized the sound of their dialect.

You know the wine makes you emotional

Ah Salud

Uncle Philly snorted a little H.

AND NOT CORNHOLING SHINEBOXES WHAT MARRIED MY GRILLED CHEESE

Spike up!

@Woody Meggs Google Translate 👍

@Woody Meggs Just do a Google search for "English to Persian". Right on the search page it should display a couple of boxes, and when you fill the "English" box with text, the "Persian" box should automatically display in Arabic script. Seems like the default.

F’ing slander if you ask me. Nobody and I mean nobody has ever heard Phil say he did 20yrs. There’s no record of it!

LOL

What started as a golden meme ends up teaching soprano community Farsi, love it

If only he'd been Tony's heir to the throne, son he never had instead of Crissy

By comparison: Chrissy seems like he's further down the trail, along with being pre-destined to addiction via both of his parents. As well as one of them being quite literally absent due to his untimely death. Christopher not having a father is portrayed so well. He's cursed in more ways then one from the get go, so many ways in fact. Almost by default, he's pressured by Tony into handling way more responsibility than he was ever made for. His father's almost mythical reputation casts a shadow over him too; in Tony's eyes, Chrissy is supposed to be the potential of being the mobster Dicky was. But all Chrissy ever had to look up to are these myths & legends, that cement his father as this flawless figure. As so many of those who grow up without guidance, he will never know the man he only recognizes through these tales. along with that, he will never know how the man lived, loved, and moved through the world. He will never know the hardships, nor will he know how he handled them. Chrissy is without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most depthy characters in the show.

@@jbach7274but his dad wasn’t a junkie

​@@Nightshift-sz9rn not in the movie i think. But somewhere in the series it was stablished that he was an addict or an alcoholic. Pardon my english idk if i nailed everything LOL

@@jbach7274He’s one of the most tragic characters in the history of fiction. And a monster any sane person would avoid at all costs. Imagine what Shakespeare could do with a character like this.

Those freaks from Rhode Island?

Just dont mention anything about HBO

@@rugger104 more sanka.. Hehehe

Yea man been studying Italiano for 2 years and Sicilianu for a year and when he starting talking I thought I was having a stroke

Very interesting point. Probably grew up in the north from a southern family who went to work up north post war. 🤔

That is not a Northern accent.

I grew up in Aus but started speaking Italian because of grandparents & then learned it at school, so native Italians pick up quickly that I'm not a native speaker. It's funny how accents & slang get mixed up over time.

@@alexander8688 Very Possible. Torino and Milano are full of Southerners.

His coach turned into a pumpkin

The guy he moved or something

It died on the vine

@@TRIIGGAVELLI it died on the vine!?!

@@shamaal123 It died on the vine, the guy, he moved or somthin.

Oh man!! I had no idea that was him!! I like his stories on the Calm app hah

@@josephlavecchia8069 There's this nice movie called Dinner Rush,about an italian restaurant,where Danny Aiello is the owner,and Eduardo,his son, is a strict chef who wants to modernize it,and make it more nouveau. It has great food,drama and it even involves some tensions with the mob,police and all kinds of quirky characters.

He's got the face for it

@@NoctuaOlivae OH!

His Italian is beautiful

HAHA you can’t make that shit up

@@andrewmamarella905 what a the F**k you talking about?? ....he just did!!

He ran off like a bat out of "Hill".😂

That, and so he could pocket some of the bounty money. These guys were skimming a bit for themselves at every opportunity, nice detail about the show.

Always thought about that 'light on cash,'but here's a bonus' card he played

He also new corky would get on with the money so why not buy it at discount and give it to corky at cost.

It's that junkie mind set, whatever happened there

At least his subconscious did, those tricky little buggers.

The reason he gives him bonus with drugs is excuse for him using it too later. The most hilarious thing is that he telling Corky to go to rehab while give him drugs instead of money.

You create the situation where you have a choice. You think you can say no whenever you want. But that is a great depiction. You start of saying you'll just have a little 2 days later your all f#cked up with empty pockets.

And having him sit shotgun on that flight, he wasn’t not gonna snort a little h

@@jonjonr4788 I'm only a few weeks sober after 20 yrs. We're feeling what he's feeling just watching it. Good luck to you mate.

@@jonjonr4788 thanks mate !!!

Correction: THE most interesting minor character lol

@@lekkymont9325 what about the “oh shit” guy????

@Thomas dxb hahaha he’s the single most well written side character on the show. He is a combination of multilayered and complex.. Remember when Phil gets shot infant of his wife and grandchildren? Well there is a dude who shouts “oh shit”

@@ck891 probably the most enigmatic and indecipherable character on the show...to understand his complexity is a privilege only the smartist viewer can claim to have flirted with

@@timgimmy609 Everyone has their own theory that it was him who orchestrated the entire end of the series

@@juniorcorradosoprano9853 hey uncle joon how's boca?? Hehehe

I noticed that too, he seems amused or intrigued i guess about this american guy speaking italian.

The dude speaks very weird Italian, a bizarre mix of northern and southern dialects so that's probably why they're so interested and ask where he's from. The actor who played the Italian talks about it in the comments of another RU-vid video. Also his partner is an American actor who is speaking his Italian phonetically but apparently did a very good job.

@@PyjamaShark9 Do you have link/or info on this other video with the comments?

@@chrisgionas4012 I too remember the Corky actor who commented on his Italian speaking ability in another yt video. His parents came from Northern Italy, so naturally he speaks Northern Italian as a second language. Northern Italian is quite different than it's southern counterpart. So the Italian actors gave "Corky" a crash course in southern Italian so that it sounds somewhat right on the show (but I guess it wasn't perfect). Casual viewers aren't going to pick up on that anyway though.

Corky's parents from Northern Italy. Tyrolean to be exact

They're not that proud.

I agree corky isn’t the cleanest person but they contact a third party for legal reasons. Tony gives the orders for suits and scissors. Chris tells tells the junky to get guns. And Corky finally delivers the guns and address. By this point corky never met Tony and the Italians never met Chris.

​@@mellifont96exactly .. plausible deniablity

Nothing more than a glorified crew!

Yeah and in order to be made they have to trace your dad’s roots back to Italy. I honestly don’t understand why they decide to break away from the culture. Speaking more than just English is a benefit.

He died in a car accident he caused

@@brianmatzen9617 he means that if Chris just used google translate, he could speak to the guys sent from Italy himself, not having to a junkie as a third party who would ultimately be the reason Chris starts using heroin again. When Chris died he was using heroin at the time.

@@caporegimeclutch9715 chris would have relapsed anyways. Him meeting with the druggie in the car was just the spark to light the tnt

@@magicargo1232 I think op was just going for a joke. We’re all taking it too literally

@Wolf 7th He is friend of ours.

@@miroslavjakubik7048 Let's take this in the back.

C’mon huh? he manages an Italian only Brazzers before they went online.

Almost nothing is known about this dude. He’s probably the most mysterious character ever on the show.

@@rugger104 Hey eh? That's enough rugger! We go way back to when Moses wore short pants. And tell Kaisha I miss her.

Don't forget about Furio's associate Tanno. He fits the same description, although he didn't say much.

@@douglaswilke8582 Have a nice day!

How's kaisha?? Hehehe

Kaisha did nothing wrong. #justiceforKaisha

@@LuckyDT I felt bad for Kaisha. If I could, I would Venmo her a box of diapers.

@@rugger104 Or a Luther Vandross box set.

He bottomed out

It’s funny cuz even tho he was a junkie you could tell he was a smart guy. If he wasn’t on the junk he might’ve even been a made man.

@@JayyJay92 sure

Edoardo ballerini

Excellent analogy 😂

think chris did that on his own.

Hey Paulie got Vitro $500 for his arm 🤣🤣🤣

They didn't tell Chris to pay the guy with drugs Chris just did that himself lol

​@@joshuafult84be knows how addicts think

Well it wasn't pointless , it gave him several extra months to live.

​@@laza6141might have even worked if Tony and the crew had supported him in it

@@jefferycrouse4652 yeah well murderous psychopaths aren't usually the best supporters :)

WHATEVER HAPPENED THERE?

😂

@JN-so6wtVery allegorical.

He was "ostrafied" for not drinking with the guys.

Eh dere meathead

I'm not polish

What eva u say boris

@@utubeisajokeIn Czech Republic too we love pork!

you will have our sausages

Such is life

I think he was afraid he was being set up and was checking the story.

i do that too, with my spanish speakers in california

He still needs to know if thy speak english in order to see if they can blend in the crowd.

Stupida fuckin' phone call.

Absolutely

you wouldnt believe it, this guy was an interior decorator!

@@deathrager2404 Really? His place looked like shit

Calling an addict weak is pure stupidity

Addiction has nothing to do with weakness. That belief is part of the decades old ignorant mindset that was pushed mostly in the 50s to 80s by the establishment and which is slowly dying out thanks to statistical facts making people more knowledgeable on the topic. There are still some people clinging to this ignorance though but more and more people are opening their eyes to the facts on this topic.

​@@alexf9381So what does it have to do with if it's not weakness?

@@joshuajarod1909 addiction gets people in moments of weakness, which literally everybody has. OP sounds like he's talking about character-defining weakness. IMO it's two different things despite both using the word "weakness"

@@joelglanton6531being an addict, we are weak. Its weak to shoot shît in your arms and turn a bottle upside down instead of facing real problems and emotions. Every time i relapse i am weak. It isnt a disease like Chris says, its a crutch. Chris is depressed and suicidal, and instead of working on his life and situation, he shoots up and makes things worse for him until it inadvertently takes his life because Tony perceives him as a weak link.

You doing 20 years whatever happened there.

Have a breadstick hehehe

dead meme

@@farookhfaz5068 that’s crazy bro, but did I ask?

Phil you know the wine makes you emotional have a grilled cheese off the rad e ate or

😂😂 yeah it's hilarious

Must be a huge difference between tooting and injecting

@@LuDimezofKush The main difference is that initial rush. Tooting gives you the same feeling, though it doesn't come on as quick. Of course, with the shit out there today (cut with fent), it doesn't really matter. You'll probably OD before anything.

I snorted a little H T

She's actually Scorcese's mother irl. Didn't know till someone told me lol

RIP. But I'm aware, did you also know that whole scene in the kitchen is improvised, and Scorcese's mother wasn't aware of the context either.

I don't serve mooks.

Strasciali tutto quando l’hai fissato!

@@sabatino1977 Va sempre con il suo guardaspalda con la lunga faccia de cavallo

Because he hired Corky for the job?

@@rowmagnvs yeah exactly

I mean they did botch the phil job.@@rowmagnvs

@@heytherebatowell that was on paulie

@@joshuasaltzman2403but Corky fulfilled all his roles flawlessly (other than his wacky Italian). The fact that the hit failed had absolutely zero to do with Corky. That was, I believe, Paulie and maybe Patsys fault.

backwards-ass dialect haha

shad dap a you face ah!

I wish I could speak any language as good as him. Besides English though.

@@OP8Ball & @chuckwood8452 "as well as"

His Italian is not very good, but I believe it was intended to be that way for the show. It’s a mash up of dialects and honestly doesn’t make much sense. That’s why the two hit men in the video look so confused. At the end they ask him, “where did you learn Italian?”, and Corky ignores the question.

Ma quello che lo dice dovrebbe essere napoletano mentre è chiaramente pugliese

Not sure if you are promoting a gay reference or you are for real. Is Ukrainian sausage legit?

@@LuDimezofKush it’s a reference to Emil Kolar, but instead of Czech, it’s Ukraine given the scene in the video

Not entirely fair, you've mistaken me for yo-yo mendez from Essex County

Funny

What do you mean ? They whacked Rusty , he did a good job.

It was Paulies fuck up not him and the junkie is more Italian than any soprano crew member

it didn't matter really because Phil was hiding out already. The italian immigrants would have to stay for weeks looking for him

Someone had a theory he came from an informant family in Italy that’s what he wasn’t down to give up his hometown

Learn italian

@@illyrian44 no time.

@@illyrian44 it isn't Italian

he actually did he never overdosed lol

No , he speaks in Neapolitan , a dialect of southern italy

@@FF-js4kj Man, I'm Italian, he's not speaking with a Neapolitan accent, he's speaking Neapolitan with an accent from the north. Also, the actor is originally from the North, the father is a Milanese poet and he lived in Milan too.

come on, he can't speak Italian

@@ever5529 Says who? A lot of Italians are saying he speaks good Italian, the father of the actor is Italian and the actor Edoardo Ballerini also grew up in Milan. I'm not Italian but I speak a bit of it. In my country there are loads of Italians and I've interacted with a lot of them in my old job. His accent sounds pretty good

​@@gunreddy dude, come on, you may know some Italian words, but you don't know the language. Here Bellerini is speaking Neapolitan, not Italian, even thought he kind of mixes up the two languages. I am Italian, born and raised in Naples, I can tell if somebody speaks good Italian and Neapolitan or not, and he just can't. Be honest, you don't know Italian or Neapolitan, that's why you think his accent sounds good.

He's weak

He did have a reputation I will say that. But not after Richie got through with him.

He died of alzheimers though didn't he

You got them confused? That really burns my ass

The Italian-American speaks Ukrainian to his daughter who lives in the same house as his mistress. It's a complicated arrangement

He said out of hell
