Joe Pesci deserves an Oscar. He is terrifying in this film.

This is one of those movies where everybody deserves the Oscar.
De Niro is in top form, Pacino nails every scene, Pesci is almost the opposite of his usual wiseguy type from Goodfellas, Ray Romano makes you forget he was ever a sitcom star, and the supporting cast are gangbusters. Louis Cancelmi (had to look this guy up) was great as Sal - wonderful supporting role, he really seemed dangerous, deadly, and sinister despite low screen time (and needing to hold his own in scenes with these other heavyweights).
Anna Paquin, I thought, gave an amazing performance made all the more stunning because she barely says a word. Powerful work!
