AMC's Mob Week Starts Tonight

For those that haven't had their AMC cut, they're doing Mob Week this week. Tonight, they're showing The Godfather. I've always loved gangster flicks.

Too bad I'm going to NYC tomorrow morning. Aww shucks

Why should I sit in front of AMC when I can watch The Godfather uninterrupted and unbowdlerised on DVD?

I have watched nearly all the movies on the lineup, but they'll be talking to former gangsters and seeing a little insight, and also seeing what movies they like the best

Re: AMC's Mob Week Starts Tonight

I have most of the movies on the sched on Blu-ray but for some reason, I always watch them when they're on the tube. I hate the edits on AMC though...they just killed Sonny and they cut out the final volley fired into him when he's on his back and the kick to the face. That pretty much guarantees that I'll give the rest of the AMC censored Mob Week a pass.

The Guitar Dater web site does NOT help you determine if a guitar is real or fake. It ONLY decodes the serial number and it does not decode any sn newer than 2008.

I would have been more interested in the perspectives of those who were the contemporaries, more or less, of the fictitious Corleones. (Supposedly, Don Corleone was a hybrid based on Vito Genovese, Frank Costello, and Carlo Gambino; most of the men who worked directly under those bosses are long gone. But those are the men whose perspectives would have been genuinely interesting in the film's context, since the Mafia is a far different (and more emasculated) beast than it was in the days that inspired the Corleone saga . . .
