I think they should definately make one about the Banana Wars. Also another one that starts at the Castellammarese War and goes through the murders of Massiera and Maranzano,and ends with the forming of the National Crime Syndicate and the 5 Families.
An excellent movie was made about the Bananna Wars: "Honor Thy Father," starring Joseph Bologna as Bill Bonanno, Raf Vallone as Joe Bonanno, and Brenda Vaccaro as Bill's wife, Rosalie. The Castellemmarese Wars were touched on (not very well) in "Gangsters" and in "The Valachi Papers."
