Henry Hill : The Real Story Behind Goodfellas (What the Movie Didn’t Tell You)

#henryhill #goodfellas #documentary
A Documentary on Henry Hill

Do you know Henry Hill, the gangster played by Ray Liotta in the movie Goodfellas? What makes him so interesting? He didn’t kill dozens of people. He wasn’t wanted for 40 years. And he wasn’t the head of the mafia. Not much, really. Yet, a famous book was written about his life, and an excellent film was made from it. None of this happened by chance. He saw it all: murders, fraud, robberies, prison… and he told the world everything. He already had a target on his back even before the movie came out. But after it revealed the secrets of numerous gangsters, Henry became paranoid, flinching at every suspicious noise, because the mafia had declared open season on him… But did they ever find him?

The film Goodfellas is based on Nicholas Pileggi’s book Wiseguy, which itself was inspired by Henry Hill’s life. But what are the differences between the real events and the movie’s fiction, and what happened to Hill after entering the witness protection program?

Dive behind the scenes of one of Martin Scorsese’s greatest mafia films and discover the tumultuous life of Henry Hill, the man who inspired Ray Liotta’s legendary role. From his rise in the New York mafia to his tragic fall, including the Lufthansa heist (the largest robbery of its time) and his life under witness protection, this documentary reveals untold secrets, betrayals, and excesses that shaped his existence.
