Personal Quote:

[on Robert De Niro] We work so well together. It's like breathing in and out. It's so easy for us - we feed off each other. See more »

Trivia:

Director Martin Scorsese and actor Robert De Niro tracked down Pesci after seeing him in The Death Collector (1976) because they felt he was perfect for the role of Joey LaMotta in Raging Bull (1980). Before they persuaded him to take the role, Pesci had been on the verge of giving up his faltering acting career. See more »
