It is not good, been a while since I watched it, but they gave Burk an Irish accent. Aside that, it is also not accurate.

I would really like them to do a more accurate movie about that heist. Maybe a year leading up to it with all the suspects and then the aftermath.

I wonder how much day to day life in “the life” has changed in the last 20-30 years.

Thirty years ago the Colombos were at war, so it's probably changed a lot for them. For families/individuals that weren't involved in much violence, it's probably about the same. They're still getting caught talking on the phone, so we know they haven't changed that much. The average mobster spends his day going to meetings, collecting money, and looking for new ways to make money, just like always.

Are there any caporegimes that did a hit or hits regularly? In Godfather 2 Rocco a capo in the Corleone family kills Roth in what looks like a suicide mission

[OcSleeper]

Plenty of examples. Massino and Sciascia killing the 3 Capos and Defilippo killing Sciascia are just 2 examples I can think of right now.

What about a suicide mission on orders from a boss?

Pete Chiodo and Al D'Arco were both involved in murders as captains. D'Arco didn't even participate in a murder until after he became a captain.

How’d he get made then? How’d he become a captain also lol

He was well-connected. He never really did anything to deserve to get made; he wasn't an earner or a tough guy. He was basically the John Pennisi of his day.

Oh wowww who was he around? All I know is that he took over Paul Vario’s crew or What was Danny Cutaia’s crew?

[TallGuy19]

He was officially on record with his cousin, Joe Schiavo, who was a powerful Lucchese soldier. He also worked for Genovese soldier Dave Petillo and was close to Paul Vario, Vic Amuso, among many others. It's been awhile since I read his book, but he talks about a lot of old-timers I had never even heard of.

Oh great, then that’ll definitely give him a push when the books opened.

[Lefty_Ruggiero]

I think Frank Manzo pushed against him getting made if memory serves me correctly.
