Welcome to New York City's 'Needle Park' - a world of pimps, thieves and junkies. Al Pacino, in his first major movie role, plays Bobby, a heroin addict who meets his clean girlfriend (Kitty Winn) and introduces her to a new strung-out world filled with young derelicts who steal, love, cheat, befriend and betray. A jungle, ruled by addiction and passion. Gutsy and compelling, Jerry Schatzberg's film was an instant star-maker for Pacino and his gut-wrenching performance helped land him the role of Michael Corleone in Coppola's The Godfather.
