The definitive gangster-epic; violent? Yes, but never mindless. The Jewish Mafia's coming of age on the Lower East Side in 1923, their rise to wealth during Prohibition, and their fall in 1933, provide the background to a story of friendship and betrayal, love and death. Leone's masterful cinematography evokes both the harshness of the vice-ridden decades before and after Prohibition, but also the philosophy behind it. Splendid performances by De Niro and Woods and a stupendous score by Ennio Mo find out more...

The film transforms this into an allegory for the loss of innocence that is associated with virginity and childhood. find out more...

Grady Tripp is an award winning novelist, the only problem is that this was seven years ago and he seems unable to relinquish the second book to his increasingly agitated publishers. To compound matters Grady's personal life is crumbling around him and the characters that frequent his world don't appear to be helping matters. All comes to a head one frantic, farcical and nerve shredding weekend, a series of mishaps that may consign him to the scrap heap forever or perhaps provide him with the op find out more...
