You learn some interesting things when you try to collect all the best bodega scenes from movies and TV into one supercut. First of all, the vast majority of them seem to involve somebody getting shot. Secondly, the rest seem to involve cursing. Above is a highly edited, not at all safe for work compendium of some of our favorite on-screen bodega moments. Note: We decided to allow convenience stores outside NYC so that it wouldn't just be clips from Law & Order. That said, the scene from The Departed was actually shot in Williamsburg despite the movie's Boston setting.
