When a movie as quality as Casino is made you can bet that the details of the film are going to be vast. With a director like Martin Scorsese it’s not only a requirement but a necessity that attention be paid to the very last thread of fabric on each character, word they say, and action they make. One of the most amazing things about the movie that we don’t realize had such precision is the wardrobe. In an excerpt from an old article in the LA Times we can learn a bit more:
From costumes to casting, the look of “Casino” was crucial to Scorsese, a director renowned for his dazzling visual sense. For this three-hour portrait of the underbelly of Las Vegas, he hired more non-actors–regular folks–than he had for any previous film. Casting directors combed the streets of New York and New Jersey to round up background players and secondary characters–each of whom had to be outfitted. And since no one thinks of the 1970s as “period,” says costume designer Rita Ryack, the challenge was greater than anyone had assumed.
More than 7,000 extras–from go-go girls to hotel clerks–had to be clothed at a cost of $150 to $200 each, much higher than the Hollywood norm. And, though the 30-plus outfits worn by hustler-turned-trophy-wife Ginger McKenna (Sharon Stone) were a mix of vintage and custom-made, all of Rothstein’s 70 costumes–not to mention those worn by Joe Pesci, Don Rickles, Alan King, Kevin Pollak and James Woods–had to be “built” from scratch.

Robert De Niro needed a tie. So, deep into the shooting of Casino, one of the film’s costume designers visited the actor’s trailer and presented him with two neckwear options. After seeing them.

Plot[edit]
Luke Vaughn, a man working in a Southern casino run by 'The Pope', has a sick daughter in a hospital, with medical bills he fails to pay, and further needs some $300,000, for her surgery. Yet, Pope refuses his plea for a loan, and when Vaughn insists, Pope fires him, which leads to his being beaten by the boss's right-hand man 'Dog'.

Vaughn is approached by security guard Cox and agrees to rob the money, which the casino is laundering for the mob. After a $3 million heist, the masked thieves are intercepted by Dog's henchmen. A gun battle ensues, wounding one of the thieves, and once their getaway driver escapes in terror, the rest are forced to hijack a city bus number 657. Police Officer Kris Bauhaus, whose car is parked a half block from the bus stop, hears the gunshots coming from the bus and pursues them and alerts reinforcements to join the chase and post a road block.
Pope orders Dog to retrieve the money. Meanwhile, Cox nearly shoots Kris, and Vaughn writes a passenger's phone number on a bus window, to enable contact with the gang, and warn Kris that Cox will kill passengers if the police are not instructed to clear the roadblocks. Kris obeys and Vaughn orders Bernie the bus driver to ram the roadblock, allowing the bus to enter the interstate highway. The next morning, the wounded thief is dying. Vaughn asks one of the passengers, a veterinarian student, to take care of him. Cox orders Bernie to head to Galveston, Texas; unfortunately, the bus is running low on fuel, so Vaughn calls for a fuel tanker.
Detective Marconi joins forces with Kris when she is about to be relieved from duty. Marconi monitors the bus via a police helicopter. Cox makes a call to Jono, an old man who aided them in planning the robbery, informing Jono that they have the money and are on the way. While refueling, Vaughn allows two hostages (Pauline and a young boy) to be released. Kris discovers that Vaughn pulled the robbery because of his ill daughter. Meanwhile, Dog learns the location of Jono through a police radio scanner.
With the wounded thief suffering blood loss, Vaughn calls Marconi to board the bus with a medical emergency kit. He boards and takes a call from Pope, tossing the phone to Vaughn, revealing Marconi's affiliation with Pope. Shortly thereafter, a SWAT team attacks the bus and pops the bus tire, causing it to crash to a stop near a bridge. Most of the passengers receive minor injuries.
With police surrounding the bus, Cox holds Bernie hostage in front of the cops and on live TV. Bernie is presumably shot dead by Cox, but it is revealed that Vaughn shot his partner Cox instead, saving Bernie. Vaughn receives a call from his daughter saying that the money has arrived to pay the hospital bills. Vaughn releases all the hostages and the bus departs once the tires are repaired. The police authorities follow the bus but find out Vaughn has escaped and only Bernie is inside.
Vaughn arrives at Jono's, but finds Dog has killed him. Dog takes Vaughn prisoner by knocking him out with a shot of rock salt from a shotgun and they are joined by Pope and Marconi back on the bus, though Pope soon kills Marconi. Vaughn shows them where the remaining $2.7 million is hidden on the bus, then explains that Pauline was not a pregnant passenger but is actually his sister, who hid the missing $300,000 in her 'tummy'. Kris had deduced what Pauline was doing and did not stop her from paying the medical bill. Dog is infuriated and is about to burn Vaughn alive, threatening to go after Vaughn's daughter next, when Pope shoots Dog dead. A grateful Vaughn is allowed to get away. Pope waits on the bus and lights a cigarette as the police arrive.
