Description

Don't miss Martin Scorsese’s electrifying vision of sin and redemption — one of the most influential works of American independent cinema — presented in a new 4K digital restoration!

A slice of street life set in the Little Italy of Scorsese's youth among lower echelon Mafiosos, unbalanced punks, and petty criminals, the story follows Charlie (Harvey Keitel), a devout Catholic who's balancing the pressures of working his way up the ranks of a local mob and managing a relationship with girlfriend Teresa, deemed unsuitable by his family because of her epilepsy.  If that wasn’t enough, he’s also burdened with Johnny Boy (Robert De Niro), a small-time gambler and charismatic live wire  in big-time debt to loan sharks.

This is the breakthrough film that catapulted Scorsese from prodigious indie talent to one of the premiere names in cinema and is a must-see for any cinema-loving goodfella.
