I met Ray Lotta about 10 years ago, at the Aruba International Film Festival.
What follows is the story of the first time Ray Liotta watched Goodfellas since its premiere, which he didn’t remember. Halfway through principal photography, his mother died.
A short thread.
Aruba was more a pseudo-vacation for all of us paid for by the tourism bureau than a real festival. Hollywood Foreign Press Association people were around at times, it would seem for the exclusive purpose of getting photos with famous people and to act like entitled assholes.
