Anyway, if you liked Casino due to it's adherence to factual events, I highly suggest you watch The Departed (if you haven't already seen it, of course). Though very loosely based on factual events and not nearly as factual as Casino, it's actually a very good movie. The ending is insane. Great lineup of actors for the various roles. The characters are loosely based on famous gangster Whitey Bulger and corrupt FBI agent John Connolly, who grew up with Bulger.

I've never seen The Departed. Amazon Prime wants extra money for it, so it will have to wait.

I can finally say I've seen The Godfather. I won't have time to watch the rest. I've got some movies for the car drive home tomorrow.
Crash Dive, Run Silent Run Deep (Again) and this movie called Battle of the Pacific that's made from the Japanese POV. I've never heard of the last one but I'll give it a watch. EDIT: Also found Saints and Soldiers and Stalker (The Russian one about Chernobyl). I'll have plenty to watch in the car tomorrow

Speaking of movies, these popped up in my subscriptions...
They do have a bit of swearing and some rather strong sexual references, so I wouldn't recommend watching these around other people

Another Independent Film, Romatic Comedy/Drama that I recently watched (3X so far) is "Garden State".
Thoroughly enjoying and entertaining, IMO. Trailer: http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi1537802521/

Trivia:
More Trivia: Interestingly, one of the prosecutors who befriended the Ciello character and is shown in a very positive light was based on then rookie federal prosecutor Rudolph Giuliani. The character, Mario Vincente, played by Steve Inwood, is portrayed as threatening to resign if the U.S. Attorney's office indicts Ciello (Leuci) for past transgressions. From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_of_the_City

Werner, I said Infernal Affairs not Internal!
The Prince of the City is one that the final scene, the main character is teaching in the police academy or training and one trainee ask if he his "the Daniel Ciello" and he replies "I'm a or one Daniel Ciello" and then the person who ask the question leaves the room? |

And, yes, the Det. (Prince Of The City) leaves the room after saying, "You're thee Det. Ciello? I don't have anything to learn from you." (or something to that effect).
