Goodfellas Henry Hill and Paul Cicero
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Goodfellas followed the rise and fall of Henry Hill , who ended up betraying his friend and boss, Paul Cicero , twice. Martin Scorsese has explored different genres in his career as a filmmaker, but he continues to be best known for his gangster movies, of which Goodfellas is still considered his best.
Henry Got Involved In Drug Trafficking To Support His Family Paul Had Rules Against Drug Trafficking Henry started dealing drugs while in prison, but once he got out, Paulie let him know he wasn’t going to accept that type of business. However, Henry continued his drug business and expanded it with Jimmy and Tommy DeVito , meaning they also went against Paulie’s orders. The reason why Paulie didn’t want his crew to get into drug dealing was to maintain the privacy and safety of the “family”. If his men got involved in drug trafficking, they would become easy targets to become informers, which posed a big threat to the “family”.
Henry’s disaster with his drug business marked the beginning of his chaotic downfall, and the end of his association with Paulie put him in danger immediately. Fearing that Jimmy was planning to kill him, Henry accepted the FBI’s deal to become an informant and enroll with his family in the witness protection program. Henry’s testimony led to the conviction of Paulie and Jimmy, marking his second betrayal against Paulie.
