Donnie Brasco

It was like a really shitty Martin Scorsese movie.

Watched this for the first time last night for the Action Boyz podcast. Can't believe I have never seen this. What a great movie and what a great performance by Pacino. Such a weird, sad gangster. Also this movie presents the phrase "Fuhgetaboutit" as if its a foreign concept. I think Sopranos came out the same year so maybe it was at the time? Also, I'm trying to figure out why I always wrote this off and my first instinct was maybe I thought it was a wannabe Scorsese. But honestly I think it might be the font choice for the title on most covers. I know it's supposed to be like a typewriter, but it doesn't look cool. I think if the marketing for this movie had been a different look maybe it would have popped more after its release when it hit DVDs and then VOD. I know that sounds like I'm being sarcastic, and I know this sounds insane to say maybe this movie would have been a bigger hit if it had a different font and didn't come out the same year as a TV show, but what are you gonna do, ya know? Fuhgetaboutit.
