Casino
Directed by Martin Scorsese
Screenplay by Nicholas Pileggi and Martin Scorsese
1995, USA
Based on the non-fiction book of the same name by Nicholas Pileggi, who also co-wrote the screenplay for the film with Scorsese (the two previously collaborated on the 1990 hit film Goodfellas); Casino
marks the eighth and (to date) final collaboration between director Scorsese and Robert de Niro.
The legendary American director presents a fascinating insider’s perspective of what goes on behind-the-scenes in the world’s gambling mecca. Starring Hollywood icons Robert DeNiro, Sharon Stone and Joe Pesci, Casino excels with rich dialogue, fantastic sets, a great cast, excellent cinematography and well-drawn characters. Despite the three hour long running time and a somewhat scattered script, Casino nevertheless remains a smart, entertaining spectacle that is populated with significant themes of betrayal, greed, money and the mob’s decline.
