Starring:
Robert DeNiro
Harvey Keitel
Breakthrough film for Scorsese, DeNiro, and Keitel is gritty urban slice of life. Keitel is a guilt-racked petty racketeer trying to protect crazy, reckless friend DeNiro from loan sharks. Film has edgy nervous energy, great acting and terrific use of pop music, all the trade-marks of a Scorsese movie.
