"Really great film that focuses on the psychological underpinnings of mobsters. The whole thing surrounds the funeral of a mob boss's son and questions the various moral dimensions involved in the life of mobsters; religion, family, loyalty, and revenge to name a few. Also it provides a poignant view of women and their various roles in the mob family. Great companion to the Godfather movies and it has a terrific cast! "
"If you want to know how loving and/or caring kids are...show them this movie. You'll learn a lot about their 'true colors.' I am a teacher that has shown this movie to all of my students for the past six years. I teach kids (with this movie) that even though they might have it bad because they live in rough and poor neighborhoods, they might actually have it better than others. Most of my female students cry because it is such a sad story. I've also had many of my male students cry as well. None of my students have ever made fun of each other about crying. This story brings up several topics that many people would dare not talk about. It is a great movie and if you are a teacher, this is a 'must see' for all your kids!!!

"This DVD is great. The director's cut is not just the original movie re-packaged. Atleast twenty scenes have been re-edited with new footage. I loved it! The DVD also has some great extras. Great job Miramax!"
