Henry Hill

[Glassman]

Hasn't he been 'wacked' yet?

Interesting docu: The Real Goodfellas

He was paid half a million for the book and film rights, only for the IRS to 'confiscate' it for back payments.

have you read the original 'goodfellas' book glassman?

its henry's story and goes into a lot more depth than the film, including some very entertaining chapters when he was sent to prison and lived virtually as a king with the mafia heads.

well worthbuying a copy as a holiday read. mine was £2 iirc.

He's good on that TV Burp program though, my kids love him. Hope he doesn't get whacked.

He went into Witness Protection as he was set to give evidence against 'the mob' in the Lufthanse Robbery.

A documentry is soon to be released about his life since going into WP.

Thank you and goodnight.

May have to have a look for the book.
I thought the film was utterly ace!

The original Henry Hill book is "Wiseguy" by Nicholas Pileggi.

He's since written another book about life since he joined the WP and the ups and downs thereafter. Called Gangsters and Goodfellas - http://www.amazon.com/Gangsters-Goodfellas-Wiseguy...

As far as I know he is no longer in Witness Protection and gets quite a lot of work advising people in Hollywood.

He turns up every now and then on the Howard Stern Show trying to get plugs for whatever he is involved in at the time.

I think he has tried his hand at running restaurants.
