Another underappreciated movie is "Honor thy Father," made for TV. It's based on the book of the same name by Gay Talese, covering the relationship between Joseph Bonanno and his adoring son Salvatore (Bill). The film centers on the famous "Bannana Wars" of the mid-Sixties and the struggle Bill--a college grad with limited experience in the Mob--has in trying to be Don while his father took it on the lam from the Commission. Another strength is that the script dispenses with the sentimental BS that encumbered Talese's book. Brilliant performances by Joseph Bologna as Bill; Brenda Vaccaro as his wife, Rosalie; the great Raf Vallone as Joe Bonanno, and Richard Castellano, reprising his Clemenza role as Bill's uncle and Joe's trusted aide. It's rather cheaply made, but the director, Paul Wendkos, had great experience in doing very well with limited funds. Highly recommended.
