Why Did Frankie Turn On Nicky? | Casino (1995) Explained | The REAL Reason...

frankie got caught lying, as he said that Nikey and Ginger weren't fucking, his bosses wanted the proof that he was indeed loyal, so he had to do this.

Payback for talking about his shoe box

Blah blah blah

It was revenge for Billy bats. He came back from the grave and use his bat.

Casino is superior to Goodfallas

He turned on Nicky because Nicky didn’t go home and get his shinebox!

In the mafia, your hitman is usually your best friend because they’re the person who can get the closest to you

"desert" beatdown?? looks like they're standing among corn stocks to me

otherwise, loved the breakdown!

Nicky messed up and slept with aces wife ginger and got himself barred from all the casinos in Vegas he was supposed to be there to oversee the skim, great film

The bosses wanted him gone. End of discussion.

Frankie didn't betray Nicky if anything it was a bit the other way around. He simply got tired of covering for him and risking his own life.

Franky was following orders. Nicky compromised everyone he worked with, because of his erratic and ill advised behavior and decisions.

He was 47...just a kid

Its rediculous to analyse life and art in terms of gossip .Of course all the parametres count but at the end of the day is power and profit in those circles!!!!!!

Nicky’s ego,greed,& selfishness got his self killed stuff of that nature will get you fuccd up in life ‼️

Unpopular opinion maybe but De Niro was miscast as excentric jewish Rosenthal, Pesci is carrying the movie.

It was among the Italians, real greaseball shit.

Casino is more about the outfit being in vegas

Nicky refused to get his shinebox

Carmine is gone. Must have gone across the street or something… bet he is in one of those holes in the desert

it was revange for goodfellas and raging bull misfortune incidents betwen these two gentelmen

If Frankie didn't do it. He was a dead man.

Dude! It was a frikkin movie! Hollywood! Made up!

I think Scorsese let Frank Vincent return the favour from Goodfellas and Raging Bull. 😂 But in reality it was much more brutal, Anthony Spilotro and his brother were kicked and punched to death so badly that their dental records were used to identify them.

the " desert scene" is in a cornfield in Illionois>.

Corn doesn't grow in the desert, bro.

Must've been the grilled cheese off the radiator, does something to your head if done long enough, 20yrs no less!

To save his own ass! In addition to lying to Remo about Nicky and Ginger, ALOT of people who knew ALOT less than Frankie died during the House of the Rising Sun.

HE DID TWENTY FUCKING YEARS.. thats why.

I love how Scorcesie utilises actors in his film. One film his actor is a Boss of the Mob, and next movie that same actor in the lowest ranking in the Mob.

Frank was not only Nicky's right hand man. He was Nicky's childhood friend. Its Nicky's fault why the mob bosses ordered him killed (doing his own criminal activities in Vegas which jeopardizes the mob businesses. And ultimately attempting to kill his friend Sam). But dang, Frank carried out Nicky's orders and was loyal to him until this ultimate betrayal.

Frankie looked like guilt was taking over after a particularly brutal swing!!!!!!!!!!

Casino is better than Goodfellas.

Two words Billy Batts a bit a of poetic justice

He wanted to get outta here, he compromised, he waited for Nicky to get his mark. No more.

Casino is a sister film to goodfellas.
Goodfellas is the mob operating a fully illegal organization.
Casino is how the mob operates even if their operation is legal.

Criminals will do crime just because.
Theyre not good people.

I've seen a video of an interview with a mobster who was in witness protection, who said the last memory he had of being in the Mafia was that Santa Claus was coming to kill him. When his hit was ordered he said the person put in charge of killing him was the guy who played Santa Claus for all the mobsters kids at Christmas time when he was growing up.

Literal Billy Bats

Classic movie tbh

Did even watch the movie? They were buryed in a corn field

What a s***e video.

'Cause he didn't want to make 20 years in the can!

Is that the shah of Iran?

Frank Vincent was such a great actor yo.. Loved him in everything but he’ll always be Uncle Philly

What do you mean why? Did you watch the movie?

Frankie was out of line, Nicky and Dom were just kids.

"They never come as your enemies. They always come as your friends, when you're the most desparate and in need of help."

Ah, it was among the Italians; it was some real greaseball sh*t...
