The Sicilian Girl
The Sicilian Girl
Them Italians know how to make
a gangster film rough.
What I mean is every Italian gangster film I've seen,
they portray gangsters as cold blooded and non likeable
characters.
Movies like this one, Gomorrah, The Boss, Calibre 9,
show these qualities.
American gangster films make their characters likeable.
What gangster wouldn't want to be Tony Montana or Don Corleone?
This movie was paced good.
Never a dull moment.
Yeah, I thought some of the acting from the main girl
and her mom seemed a little exaggerated.
Overall, story works for me.
It's good for the Gangster collection.
Will make a good double feature with Gomorrah.
