    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      This movie shows Bugsy Siegel watching a screentest of himself. In real life, Siegel made many friends amongst the Hollywood elite, asked for, and had a screentest. The footage no longer exists, like so many other screentests, yet the legend of Siegel's attempt to break into showbiz lives on.
    • Goofs
      When "selling" the concept of Las Vegas to the other mobsters, Bugsy states that "when Hoover Dam opens up", there will be power for air conditioning. The scene takes place in the mid 1940's and Hoover Dam had already been producing power since the late 1930's. In addition, Las Vegas never got any power from Hoover Dam until 2017.

    • Alternate versions
      The 2006 DVD features fifteen minutes of extra footage that Barry Levinson had to cut from the 1991 theatrical version.
