Warner Bros. has officially announced and detailed its upcoming 25th Anniversary Blu-ray release of Martin Scorsese's classic film GoodFellas. The release will be available for purchase on May 25.
The 25th Anniversary Blu-ray release of GoodFellas, cited by film critic Roger Ebert as "the best mob movie ever" has been remastered from a 4k scan of the original camera negative, supervised by Martin Scorsese.
GoodFellas explores the criminal life like no other movie. Following the rise and fall of a trio of gangsters over 30 years, it's an electrifying, fact-inspired tale of living – and dying. Based on the true-life best seller "Wiseguy" by Nicholas Pileggi, the film earned six Academy Award® nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director and was named 1990's 'Best Film' by the New York, Los Angeles and National Society of Film Critics. In 2000, GoodFellas was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the US Library of Congress.
Scorsese was awarded the Silver Lion Award for Best Director in Venice. Robert De Niro received wide recognition for his performance as veteran criminal Jimmy "The Gent" Conway, and Joe Pesci, as the volatile Tommy DeVito, walked off with the Best Supporting Actor Oscar. Academy Award nominees Lorraine Bracco, Ray Liotta and Paul Sorvino also turned in critically acclaimed performances.
