Ex-Mob Boss Rates 12 Mafia Movie Scenes | How Real Is It? | Insider
Переглядів 14,841,872
День томуMichael Franzese, a former New York mobster and ex-caporegime of the Colombo crime family, rates classic mafia movie scenes on how accurate they are. The US mafia is featured in many classic movies from the 1920s onwards. We discuss the cultural significance and accuracy of famous crime scenes in movies and TV shows, such as "The Sopranos." Franzese also points out inaccuracies in scenes from mob comedies such as "Analyze This" and "The Simpsons."
Franzese discusses true stories and real-life characters featured in "Goodfellas" and "Casino." He talks about his proximity to the events of Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman," the Oscar-nominated movie starring Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
After Franzese was released from prison in 1995, he became the only high ranking official of a major mafia family to ever walk away, without protective custody, and survive. Franzese is the author of "Blood Covenant" and "I’ll Make You An Offer You Can’t Refuse." He now works as a public speaker and motivator.

Let me ask you, when was the last time you were on the receiving end of a mafia's methods for you to know for certain that they are exclusively evil(the whole point of my argument was about where they fall on the 'evil meter' if evil is the right word to describe them) and go after innocent people. Edit: there's chaotic elements in society, and then there's straight up evil with worship and blood rituals, death cults and initiations that involve ending a random person or r-word them, and other crazy stuff that cartels are involved in.

@@BringDHouseDown I'm pretty sure there is a video of a streamer; who out on the streets somewhere (can't remember where); was warned from a local about the "mafia" robbing people on the streets at night in that area. The streamer didn't take it serious yet had a piece of his equipment snatched from him from a guy on a bike just minutes afterwards (it's all on video by the way). Of course, that doesn't mean it was indeed the mafia but it seems suspicious to me since the local specifically said "the mafia". Perhaps he calls anyone who steals the mafia I don't know. I'm pretty sure they will and do rob innocent people though. It's money at the end of the day.

@@Alaryk111 so this has already been explained to yall. A cultural difference between europeans and americans is that europeans state where they’re from as the country of their origin. Birth maybe, but certainly their language and culture. Americans trace “where they are from” from the ancestral history of the first known immigrant/s. Because this country was built by slaves and immigrants. Moving continents is a radical experience, and so these immigrants passed their culture down through their families to remember the homes they left behind. No american is telling you that they have an italian passport. You’re just being annoying.

I know a guy who worked for the Italian mafia as a thief or somehting (hijacking trucks, stealing jewelry, etc.) Did some terrible stuff as well. He once fled from the police and rammed a small bus full of kids (no good ending, and still traumatizes him to this day). He never speaks directly about his life, only very vaguely or as if he's talking about someone else, and I got most of the info second-hand. But he told me once somehting like: "Once you dance with the devil, the dance lasts forever." Another guy I don't really know much about was called Capu (the Head) by everyone. When I asked why I was simply told because he once beheaded a guy with a knife and then kicked the head around like a football until someone came to pick him up.

There was a mob boss in Jersey who talked with his consiglieri about bad dreams and anxieties, Simone DeCavalcante. He did have anxieties and issues, but didn't go to a therapist. That Godfather killing was realistic for the 40s, because it's based loosely on the Valentine's Day Massacre and the Chicago killings. Also mob killings in Sicily. In New York, they probably never would've killed Sonny like that, but in Chicago or Sicily? Yes. In Casino, the stuff in that actually happened. Casinos weren't as tight with public security. If you were a decent guy who regularly spent your money there, they'd treat you like royalty. If you were a cheat, they'd toss you out. But if you kept pushing it, and there was a reason you weren't directly connected to the cops, they'd absolutely break hands, fingers, cut off a pinky, or finesse you out your literal house.

In a sense, both positions are correct. The line from the Sopranos was meant to convey: "If a boss is in a situation he wants to be SEEN as the Boss...shorts--not a good idea. But Mike is right, you have seen bosses decide (say they're out fishing) where they don't give a shit about looking like they're the boss. You've even seen photos of Skinny Joe Merlino around Philly and Florida wearing shorts--a lot. To the point where I think he's expressly trying to imply: "I AINT the Boss!" to add credence to the impression he's been trying to give of being "retired".
