The scene with Ginger coming back to the house, screaming, drugged up, IS brilliant! The whole build up of her character and her using Ace his weak side is awesome! It just irritates me that they didnt take out Lester. As he grows he has to lean on this weak emotional side more: being charming, hosting a tv show, he makes a clown and weak person of himself. He is a rational, calculating being, who needs the emotional Pesci beside him. His luck never running out is what causes him to fail. He starts out respectable and gets all flashy and arrogant at the end. He couldve had it all, but didnt take it.
I see Bobby De Niro in Casino as a clown.
I have to agree with you on the ending of Goodfellas…it was kinda quick and almost seemed like it was just glued on to the rest of it…
