LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Sunday marked the 25th anniversary of the release of Martin Scorsese's mob classic film 'Casino,' set in early-70s Las Vegas.
Did you know our very own Dave Courvoisier had an appearance in the 1995 film? It's true! Watch in the player above.
Martin Scorsese has an undeniable love for gangster movies, from Goodfellas and The Irishman to Casino, and there are now rumours he’s working on Casino 2. His latest project, Killers of the Flower Moon, also centres on action: a Native American Tribe living peacefully at a place Europeans previously rejected suddenly discovers oil and all hell breaks loose! Roughly the midpoint of Scorsese’s career, Casino is a film that seems to pull its various elements from a number of other Scorsese movies, while foreshadowing others to come.
Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, Martin Scorsese and Gangster Film about money, power and corruption: mix these elements together and you cannot go wrong. Casino is a really good film with several incredible scenes and outstanding performances. De Niro, Pesci and Sharon Stone all play their roles so well. It’s honestly interesting just watching them. Martin Scorsese puts together this beautiful piece of cinema depicting the mafia inner workings of 1970s Las Vegas, and the critical consensus is, 'Yeah, that was okay, but not as good as GoodFellas.' Award ceremonies hardly even recognized it at all, with the exception of Sharon Stone's performance. What do you guys think?

Museum Vice President Geoff Schumacher hosted the discussion. He says screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi called the film 'a love letter to Las Vegas'
'This era in Las Vegas was really unprecedented,' he said.
'We will never see it again, and it was a time of sort of glamour and glitz and promise and opportunity,' said Schumacher.
'And also a lot of heartache and violence, but that's the Las Vegas that people really identify with.'
