Henry Hill: Goodfella

Description

All he ever wanted to be was a gangster. He achieved his dream, but then he became what every mobster hates most. Henry Hill is one of the most famous criminals ever, but his fame came only after he decided to turn his back on the life that he had grown up dreaming of. From his childhood on the New York City streets to his ongoing attempts to come to terms with his criminal past, BIOGRAPHY chronicles the life of the man whose story formed the basis for the hit movie Goodfellas. Friends talk about his short-lived term in the Witness Protection Program (""he's the only man in America hiding out on TV"") while Henry reflects on his life in the Mob and the pivotal role he played in bringing down some of its most powerful figures. Henry Hill's life is a story of crime, addiction, love, betrayal and, ultimately and perhaps most surprisingly, survival.
