MAFIA! READ! Sorry, I forgot Analyze This, that's Other. Other could also include Scarface (1932), Public Enemy, whatever you want. I had this great idea and then memory lapsed at movies (Hence Bella Mafia)
Don Mantagna ?? Are you trying to say Don Montana ?
If that's what you meant,Tony Montana was not a Don,but you don't need a Don in a movie to relate it to Mafia.Scarface is known as a Gangster type of movie or "The movie that made a project on the word "Fuck" "
But even so,Mafia is very much related in Scarface
Why goodfellas is a mafia movie ? was De Niro a Don? Ray Liota a Don?
Same for Casino- De Niro a Don ? Peschi?
And if other actors were Dons,is that a Mafia movie?
Also,something very important - if you don't know-a Don is not always on top of a Mafia family.
Don is a word of respect,and there are many Dons in the world who are not on top of a Mafia family.[/b][/quote]Scarface is a GREAT movie, don't get me wrong.
\But it's a Cuban DrugCartel, NOT a Mafia.
Paulie was a Capo of teh Luchese Family, Jimmy and Henry were associates, Tommy was almost MADE< and besides the sub-title is 30 years in A MAFIA Family!
Casino is Mafia because Santorro was a Made Man who went against the Boss and got killed for it!
And Besdiers they were Ityalian/Jew actors, unlike Scarface's Hispanic.
What the HELL doe sScarface have to do with the Mafia?
I'm NOT rernaming the Post favorite NON-GF/NON-Scarface Mob movies!
I exlcuded Scarface on purpose!
