Episode 78: Once Upon A Time In America (1984)
This week at The Film Club we're kicking off Mob Movie March with the final film of Sergio Leone, Once Upon A Time in America. The film follows David "Noodles" Aaronson who is former gangster that has come out of exile for the past 35 years because he's being commissioned for one last job by an anonymous boss. Noodles returns to his childhood neighborhood and is transported to the past where he met his lifelong friends/gang. We join Noodles on this 50+ years journey that is filled with heartbreak, drama, death and regret. In a series of flashbacks we see why Noodles ends up exiled, but was Noodles really to blame? Will Noodles survive this last job? Or is he really the target? Join us as we dive into the world of Once Upon A Time In America.
