Ricardo - your ideas are always a real pleasure to read.
I greatly enjoy your careful integration of familiar names to your work; and the importance you place on US historical context.
Your attention to detail is very impressive.
I wish you well for the future.
P.S. I hope you get back posting lots soon.
My first ever post was in response to a query you had about Once Upon A Time in America.
Little did I then know that I was dealing with
such a well informed person on the subjects of movies and gangster history. Keep it up!
