Director: Martin Scorsese
Starring: Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta, Joe Pesci, Lorraine Bracco
Based on the true-life account of mobster and FBI informant Henry Hill, this gritty film explores the life of organized crime. Joe Pesci and Robert De Niro provide stellar performances, but the real focus of director Martin Scorsese's mob opus is Ray Liotta’s Henry Hill, a gangster who dreamed of making it to the top but landed in the witness protection program instead. While it was nominated for six Oscars (including Best Picture), only Pesci took home a statue.
