"As far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a gangster." -- Henry Hill, Brooklyn, NY, 1955. Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) is a small time gangster, who takes part in a robbery with Jimmy Conway (Robert De Niro) and Tommy De Vito (Joe Pesci), two other gangsters who have set their sights a bit higher. His two partners kill off everyone else involved in the robbery, and slowly start to climb up through the hierarchy of the Mob. Henry, however, is badly affected by his partners success, but will he stoop low enough to bring about the downfall of Jimmy and Tommy? (IMDb)
