In this final episode of our 2025 series in which we explored some of the most iconic movies from 1975 and 1995 we are finally rolling the dice with Martin Scorsese’s Casino. Over the course of our conversation, which (expectedly) is just as sprawling and widespread as the movie itself, you will hear us talk about the ways in which Casino capitalizes on the success of Goodfellas, how it differs from it in many ways and how it informs one of the most persistent thematic angles present in Martin Scorsese’s filmmaking career. We also talk about Las Vegas as a character, Robert De Niro’s glitzy wardrobe, that opening explosion shot, Joe Pesci owning the frame and much, much more!

Tune in and enjoy!
