From Bronx Tale to Goodfellas: Gary Pastore’s Story | The Chazz Palminteri Show | Episode 256

In this episode, I sit down with actor Gary Pastore, a longtime working actor best known for his unforgettable role in A Bronx Tale. We talk about how one of the film’s most iconic lines came together, growing up Italian in New York, and the real-life path of a working actor.

Gary shares stories from Goodfellas, working with Martin Scorsese, playing real-life mob figures like Albert Anastasia, and the importance of networking the right way in Hollywood. We also discuss longevity in the business, reputation, and why being a good person off-camera matters just as much as talent.
