Yeah, Lucas' recollections seem to be a bit sketchy and revisionist, Oli. I enjoyed the film, but I would have appreciated an ending similar to "Goodfellas," with a detailed written postscript during the credits. As it stands, the ending was a little sloppy. But there are several books on the subject, if you're really that interested.


It just seems that since the Don was on Richie's radar once he began to focus on Frank that at least the Don could have been arrested.
