The 1995 epic “Casino” by Martin Scorsese explores the world of organized crime in Las Vegas in the 1970s and 1980s. This gambling movie, which stars Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci, recounts the rise and fall of casino CEO Sam “Ace” Rothstein as it examines themes of greed, loyalty, and treachery.

Sam falls in love with Ginger, a hustler, as he starts to transform the Tangiers into a tremendously successful casino.
