RIP RAY LIOTTA TRUE LEAD OF THE LEGENDARY 'GOODFELLAS'

Ray Liotta as Henry Hill in GOODFELLAS

The one thing GOODFELLAS had going that set it apart from all the inferior clones is Ray Liotta, the star of the movie although he's second billed to Robert De Niro who, along with scene-stealer and sole Oscar winner Joe Pesci, gets most of the credit for the legacy of the film along with director Martin Scorsese, peaking here as an auteur...

It's a story that centers on Ray Liotta's real life former mobster Henry Hill, providing Liotta the most natural-sounding narration in the history of movies and, sadly, Ray Liotta, the comparable baby of the film to Robert, Joe and Martin, has died... the first to go, and in this particular groundbreaking, game-changing masterpiece, the true leading role.
