You don’t make up for your sins in church. You do it in the streets. Two-time Academy Award-winner Robert De Niro stars in Martin Scorsese’s breakthrough feature, a drama of young men coming to manhood by the code of New York’s Little Italy. A harrowing, intense, and grueling dramatic experience — brilliantly acted and directed.
Mean Streets (1973) premiered at the 1973 New York Film Festival and was the first of Scorsese’s many collaborations with De Niro and his second with Harvey Keitel. A personal and powerful work, the film is considered one of the most influential films in American independent cinema.
“[Scorsese] is an institution, and Mean Streets is the cornerstone of his edifice, containing all the elements of his future career in one spectacular, bravura throw-down”
—Lucy Sante, Criterion
