(Sergio Leone, US/Italy 1984, 227 min.)

In Leone’s final film and most accomplished masterwork, Robert DeNiro stars as Noodles, an aged Jewish gangster who recalls his childhood and rise to power in prohibition-era New York. The supporting cast includes James Woods, Elizabeth McGovern, Tuesday Weld, Joe Pesci, Burt Young, and Danny Aiello. Shorn of 90 minutes for the first American release, this version restores Leone’s original epic vision.
