Al Pacino and Johnny Depp star in this crime drama directed by Mike Newell. In late 1970s New York, FBI agent Joe Pistone (Depp) goes undercover to infiltrate the Mafia as his alter-ego Donnie Brasco. He befriends ageing hitman Lefty Ruggerio (Pacino) who inducts him into the ways of the mob. As Brasco, Pistone becomes immersed in the world of organised crime and violence, but at the same time comes to regard Lefty as a friend. He knows, however, that when his assignment is over and his cover blown, it will mean certain death for the man who has taken him under his wing. The cast also includes Michael Madsen, Bruno Kirby and James Russo.
