Bugsy Siegel (Warren Beatty) is a handsome, charming member of the mob with a vision. He believes that, in a state like Nevada where gambling is legal, and with Hollywood close by, he can develop not just a casino but a whole city that is as glamorous and seductive as the movies. He begins his vision by opening the Flamingo casino, using money from the mob that he can't replace right away. He is inspired by a beautiful dancer Virginia Hill (Annette Bening). By going to all the right restaurants and parties in Los Angeles, Bugsy convinces the best talent to appear at his casino to give it the legitimacy he desires. Meyer Lansky (Ben Kingsley) warns Bugsy that he is in danger if he cannot repay the mob and if he continues to promote this lavish life he envisions in the middle of a desert.
