The Tribeca Film Festival ended on Saturday night with a bang — a special 25th anniversary screening of the Martin Scorsese gangster flick "Goodfellas."

"Goodfellas" cast including Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta and Lorraine Bracco were all at the screening for a reunion.

GoodFellas is based on the true-life story of Henry Hill, who was part of a notorious New York-based crime syndicate.

Along with its art-house style visuals it was the movie's powerful rock soundtrack that gave it a cult following.

Lorraine Bracco talked about how is work to work with director Scorsese on the film.

" I remember asking, 'what are you thinking about when you're doing that, and he says I want to shoot this like a gangster. I want to shoot it the way I want to shoot it. "

Many regard the Oscar-nominated mob tale as more than just a great film of the crime genre, but also one of the greatest movies of all time.

A special 25th Anniversary edition of 'Goodfellas' will be available on Blu-ray and Digital HD from May 5.
