Scorsese probably is best known for films such as Taxi Driver (1976), Raging Bull (1980), or The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), however, he has often stated Casino as one of his favorite ever productions due to its simplicity in storytelling and clever narrative. Here we will dive deep into Scorsese's creation explaining both the premise, the impact, and its real-life connections.

Due to Ginger's previous relationship, things soon take a turn for the worse. Sam has Nicky and his crew beat up con-artist Lester Diamond after they catch him conning Ginger out of $25,000. Ginger soon turns to alcohol and quickly develops a problematic drug dependency. 
Things Take a Turn for the WorstSam begins to bring himself into the public eye. He becomes a local talk show host boosting his profile much to the displeasure of the Chicago bosses. Inside men arrange for Sam's gaming license to be denied, jeopardizing his position thus souring his relationship with Nicky as he believes his reckless behavior towards police and the Nevada Gaming Board is to blame.

With the mob now out of Licensing fronts, Tangiers Casino Las Vegas and many others are purchased by big corporations then demolished to make way for larger Hotel-Casinos to the anger of Sam. He retires to San Diego and returns to being a sports handicapper. Famously in his own words, ending up 'right back where I started'. 
Casino's Impact and Real-Life ConnectionsCasino initially received mostly positive reviews from critics, however, it was a fair reduction on the attention received by Goodfellas 5 years prior. ‘Casino' is now regarded as one of the best Vegas related movies on par with Ocean's Eleven (2001). The film's critical profile has increased in years since its release with critics many years later calling it a much more acclaimed and mature work than the thematically similar Goodfellas. 
Tangiers casino is based on the real-life Stardust Hotel, one of the real casinos run by Frank Rosenthal (Sam in Casino). Frank did also have his own television show, suitably named ‘The Frank Rosenthal Show'. The show was filmed at the Stardust Hotel and played host to guests including Frank Sinatra and Bob Hope. Chicago Outfit, who are the main gang focus of the film is perhaps best known for their connection to boss Al Capone.

Recent updates:
May 12, 2007I'm looking for information on the Royal Nevada. I know it existeddirectly south of the Stardust during the 50s. One source puts its addressas 3100 Las Vegas Blvd. S. and being open from 1955 to 1959. The problemis that another source has the Silver Slipper (also known to be locatedjust south of the Stardust) at 3100 Las Vegas Blvd. S. and being open from 1950 to 1988. I'm trying to reconcile this. Was the Silver Slippersouth of the Royal Nevada? Were these two places ever actually open atthe same time? I'm especially interested if anyone can cite a sourceor photograph that answers this question conclusively.April 19, 2007Looks like the Maxim project won't happen as the site was sold to MGM Mirage.April 15, 2007The Aladdin officially changes its name to Planet Hollywood. The grandreopening party will occur in late September, though.Other related casino sites:
Notes:
In the mid-90s, a person known to the 'Net only as 'Scruffy' had a wonderful historical map of the Las Vegas Strip that was one of the best Las Vegas resources in the early days of the Internet. Unfortunately,Scruffy's map has been offline for several years. Even though it wascreated from scratch, this map is very much inspired by his efforts, and he deserves much of the credit for this.
Some smaller casinos that do or used to exist have been intentionallyomitted. Basically, if the casino didn't either have its own hotelrooms or table games, it's too small to receive notice here.
There are other casinos that probably deserve to be mentioned. Anysuggestions for these casinos and their locations can besent to npc@jetcafe.org.
