Goodfellas
"As far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a gangster." -- Henry Hill
Gangsters never refer to themselves as gangsters. They are made-men, wiseguys or Goodfellas.
Academy Award-winning director Martin Scorsese exposes the fascinating, mysterious and violent underworld of New York's Mafia families through the life of insider Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) as he rises from smalltime thug to mobster under the guidance of Jimmy Conway (Academy Award winner Robert De Niro) in this searing, epic crime drama based on the chilling true-life best seller Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi.
Academy Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Joe Pesci).
Five Academy Award nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress (Lorraine Bracco) and Best Editing.
