Of the many delicious scenes in Goodfellas, the one that lingers longest is that of Paulie Cicero slicing garlic with a razor blade. "The character in real life actually did that! And people have asked me if those were stunt hands ? no, they're mine," Paul Sorvino recalled to The Hollywood Reporter of the move, which he recently recreated on Rachael Ray. "But do not mix garlic and onions together ? if I hear you did, I'm going to hunt you down." For the 25th anniversary of the Martin Scorsese gangster classic ? a reunion that closed the 2015 Tribeca Film Festival and included about a dozen members of the 1990 film's other cast and crew in the audience, Scorsese and producer Irwin Winkler sent video messages to the audience, as they're currently filming Silence in Taiwan. "I remember the previews were one of the worst experiences of my life ? we had three of them and they were all in California. ? It seemed that the audience had to be prepared for what it was, but there was a lot of controversy," Scorsese said of debuting the crime drama, in which his parents also appear. He then addressed screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi: "Remember that nice Italian restaurant in Tribeca that we used to go to? And then when the film came out, the owner of the restaurant said we're not allowed in anymore because we apparently denigrated a certain ethnic group for the picture?"??
