Description:
Martin Scorsese's crime epic, GOODFELLAS, entered the cinematic canon the minute it was released. A darkly funny, profane, and eye-poppingly violent mob tale, GOODFELLAS features particularly brilliant work from Ray Liotta, Robert De Niro, an Oscar-nominated Lorraine Bracco (particularly powerful), and an Oscar-winning Joe Pesci. After nearly a decade of RAGING BULL, black comedies (THE KING OF COMEDY, AFTER HOURS), and a passion project (THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST), Scorsese returned to the genre for which he made his name with a film that's widely considered one of his finest achievements.
