As far back as he can remember, Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) wanted to be a gangster. A half-Irish, half-Sicilian Brooklyn kid, he’s adopted by neighbourhood gangsters at an early age and climbs the ranks of a Mafia family with help from his partners in crime, Jimmy Conway (Robert De Niro) and Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci). With his rise through the organisation, however, comes the dangers of violence, double-crosses, drug addiction, and the ever-present threat of crossing the FBI’s path.
