“Casino” at least was better received than 1995’s other major Las Vegas movie: “Showgirls.” One of the most thoughtful critics of “Casino” was Rosenthal himself, who died in 2008. The movie is based on Pileggi’s 1995 nonfiction book, Casino: Love and Honor in Las Vegas. Pileggi and Scorsese also co-wrote the Mafia movie Goodfellas, which premiered in 1990.
