audience score: 3392 Votes Brazil Francesco La Licata genres: Drama brief: The real life of Tommaso Buscetta the so called "boss of the two worlds", first mafia informant in Sicily 1980's. Some of the best movies are the ones which turn out to be nothing like what you thought before seeing them. Considering the subject, I was expecting something along the lines of 'Goodfellas' a mafia underboss wiseguy whose life spins out of control. Watching the documentary currently available on a certain streaming TV service only bolstered my expectation.
My preconceived notions were incorrect. That was a good thing. There is no glamorization of the mafia lifestyle in this film. We even see the mafiosi call their purported familial ties "a farce. It portays the members of the cosa nostra as the sick sociopaths that they are. Nothing glamorous about that.
This is a very well made film, worthy of the high praise it has received.
