“As far back as I can remember I always wanted to… see GoodFellas on 35mm.”
On its release in 1990, Martin Scorsese’s GoodFellas tore up the rule book of what a gangster film could be, redefined a genre and set a new standard for cinematic cool, amidst a haze of violence and note perfect needle drops. With its instantly quotable script and career-defining performances from the likes of Ray Liotta, Joe Pesci, Paul Sorvino and Lorraine Bracco, GoodFellas is a quintessential cinema-going experience, whether for the first or hundredth time.
Young Irish-Italian Brooklyn native Henry Hill has always dreamed of being a gangster. We he gets an after-school job at the local cab stand, parking wiseguys’ Cadillacs, he quickly finds himself on the inside track with the local mob. As he rises in the ranks Henry comes to realise that once you’re in, you’re in for life.
