Casino: The True Story
Casino was a movie made in 1995 by Martin Scorsese staring Robert De Niro. It tells the story Las Vegas, the casinos and the mob. It was ground breaking and won several awards but now Five is screening the true story, and truth is more frightening than fiction. Now Five tells the story of how all of the casinos in Las Vegas were controlled by five Mafia families based in Chicago and known collectively as The Mob. The major casino was Stardust, and it was earning the Mafia $1,000,000 every month which they skimmed from the takings. Only a highly organised FBI operation was able to expose the criminal tentacles flowing through the city’s seedy underbelly.
