Plots(1)
Outstanding director Sergio Leone strayed away from his western roots in this epic crime drama which was also his final movie before he died in 1989. Once Upon a Time in America focuses on the rise of two Jewish boys, David 'Noodles' Aaronson (Robert De Niro) and Maximilian 'Max' Bercovicz (James Woods) as they work their way up the organised crime industry in Brooklyn New York, from street thugs to two well respected gangsters, conquering love, lust, greed, betrayal, loss and broken relationships along the way. Now 30 years on David has returned to Brooklyn to battle his demons and confront the regrets of the life he once led, but will he find forgiveness for the things he once did and can he forgive himself? (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)
