If you’d asked me last week if I’d ever seen *Goodfellas*, I’d have said something like “Yeah, 25–30 years ago. Great movie.” But I watched it over the weekend and *not one scene seemed familiar*. Did I see it 25–30 years ago and since forget *everything*, or did my mind somehow convince itself that I’d seen the movie?

It is indeed a great movie. If *you* haven’t seen it yet, do so. If you have, check out IMDB.com’s <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099685/trivia">extensive trivia about the movie</a>. If I somehow manage to live another 25–30 years, I’ll probably have dementia by then so could watch it again for the first time.
