This was on one of the channels called Legend tv and happened to catch my eye as I was flicking through the tv. I was lucky to get it from the start too.
I liked this a lot it was clearly made by people who loved mob films.
Cool to see a few actors way earlier in their careers too.
A few unintentionally funny moments but I do have a soft spot for mob stuff in general as they are one of my favourite pieces of media.
Patrick Dempsey somehow survives the gangster aesthetic, and the film treats the rise of Lucky Luciano like a glossy MTV mafia montage. Historically messy, dramatically overcooked, but weirdly watchable.
