Waiting for THE GODFATHER part IV

Gangsterflicks, don't we all just love them?????
'Cause:
  • Who doesn't want to talk like Marlon Brando when someone 'asks' you for a small favour?
  • Or sayin' - shoutin' - yellin' FUCK as much as possible like Joe Pesci in aaaaaaaaall of his movies?
  • Who doesn't want to wear those ultra-wrong-yet-übercool Italian suits like Robert De Niro in Casino?
There are soooo many reasons for this:


I have no idea whether this movie is really going to be released. Maybe it's released already or it culd be a very bad joke, I really don't know. 

All I can give you, are these two 'substitutes' while waiting for the next big Hollywood gangster movie:

1. A movie: Un prophète. 

A no-bullshit gangster film about a dude who ends up in jail as a complete nobody and ends as a gangster-somebody. Cliché? Indeed, but excellent! 

2. A book: De Tinseltown Maffia

We've all seen 'Once upen a time in America'. This book breaths all the same caracteristics! The beginning of the maffia in New York, prohibition, the escape from poverty in the ghetto...
Even though the second part of the book is more a romantic story with a typical happy end, when you love to read, this will keep you busy for a couple of days!
