16. Gangs of New York
Trending
Based on a book by Herbert Asbury, Gangs of New York was first considered for an adaptation by Martin Scorsese in 1970. But the director had trouble getting it financed as he was not famous then. Scorsese got the rights to the book in 1979, but it was only twenty years afterwards that he got the finances from Miramax. The film was finally released in 2002 and was an instant hit.
