From Sergio Leone, director of "A Fistful of Dollars", comes an immense saga which spans four decades in the lives of Jewish gangsters in New York's Lower East Side, starring Robert De Niro, James Woods and Joe Pesci. Leone's commanding epic traces the destinies of four men from childhood on the streets through their violent rise to power and maturity during Prohibition as fully fledged hoods. De Niro is magnificent as "Noodles" Aaronson, one of the four, forced by murder and betrayal to flee New York in 1933. When he is mysteriously summoned back in 1968, he discovers that the tragic and bloody events surrounding his betrayal are not as they once seemed.

Unavailable on any format in the UK since 1996, but now finally available on DVD, this gangster masterpiece is presented for the first time in stunning widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound. Running across two discs, the epic is accompanied by an audio commentary, documentary, trailer and a stills gallery of rare behind the scenes photos.
