Oh. Hell. Yes.
When I was in high school, I developed a sort of obsession with the mafia. I guess it had something to do with the kind of guys in the mafia: Bugsy Seigel and Lucky Luciano, the kind of guys who got what they wanted and would let nothing or no one stand in their way. I entrenched myself in movies like Goodfellas, Godfather, Bugsy, and The Untouchables. I loved everything about it. My favorite book was about Virginia Hill, Ben Seigel’s girl. This is around the time I, like a lot of people, started to feel like I was born in the wrong era. How fun would it have been to live in the Roaring Twenties. I took images of James Cagney and color photocopied them up to 11 by 17s and hung them on my wall. I was really quite consumed by the entire concept.
So when I knew they were making a movie about John Dillinger, I was pretty excited. And starring Johnny Depp? AND Christian Bale. Sweet Lord, they know how to bring in both men and women, don’t they? Well, I for one am excited about this movie. I love old-timey things and who doesn’t love a good gun fight? Speaking of gun fights, has anyone seen 3:10 to Yuma? It’s way the hell down there on our Netflix queue but I definitely want to see it.
Well, this is all I can offer you today – the trailer renders me speechless anyway.

3:10 to Yuma was excellent. I should add the original to my queue.
My favorite part of Goodfellas is when she tells him she needs money. When he asks how much, she puts her finger and thumb about 3 inches apart and says, “This much.” Someday I want to be able to do that.
I love mafia stuff too. I used to watch all those shows on A&E about the real mobsters. And, I LOVE Johnny Depp so this is perfect!
