Posing as jewel broker Donnie Brasco, FBI agent Joseph D. Pistone (Depp) is granted entrance into the violent mob family of aging hitman Lefty Ruggiero (Pacino). When his personal and professional lives collide, Pistone jeopardizes his marriage, his job, his life and, ultimately, the gangster mentor he has come to respect and admire. From acclaimed director Mike Newell (FOUR WEDDINGS AND FUNERAL), and featuring an extraordinary supporting cast including Michael Madsen, Anne Heche, Bruno Kirby and James Russo, DONNIE BRASCO is "one terrific movie!" (Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE)
