I've seen them both, though it has been a while for Goodfellas; Safe I watched within the last few months.

I am going to watch my bracket films tonight, which should I watch first?  Safe or Goodfellas

That's a tough one.  What's your state of mind after this past week?

Mostly mushy.
But I wish the public could, in the midst of its pleasures, see how blatantly it is being spoon-fed, and ask for slightly better dreams.

Yeah, I think it's the wrong night for either of those movies.  You should watch Wild Reeds!

I'm gonna say Goodfellas first.

I still haven't restarted The Shop Around the Corner (any minute now), then I'll aim for Wild Reeds  :), followed by Goodfellas and Safe.  That isn't likely, but it is the plan and I'd be very proud of myself if I follow it through.
