Mafioso

★★★

Director: Alberto Lattuada
Year: 1962

Fascinating film. Can’t believe it was only the ’60s when Sicily was considered a backwoods country (yes, country as everyone views themselves separate from Italy). Anyway, can definitely see references in it used in all future mob based films. And found the stereotypes to be hilarious such as the girl with a mustache, that everyone has dark hair so they pull in a woman from the north who’s a blond, etc. Now I want to see the Godfather again.
