What It Was Like to Be In the Mob

Have you ever wondered what it would really be like to be inducted into one of the Five Families? In Hollywood, movies like The Godfather, Casino, Goodfellas, and Scarface make being affiliated with organized crime seem like a lucrative, adventurous, and glamorous endeavor. And while some depictions of La Cosa Nostra ("Our Thing") in these films are accurate, they also include many fallacies for the audience's entertainment. In reality, the day-to-day operations of the Mafia are often much duller than the action-filled dramas we see play out on the silver screen. #themafia #goodfellas #weirdhistory
