I think a fantastic book and movie can be made just about life in Italian Harlem in the 50s through the early 80s. Over a thirty year span.

But not just mob and youth gang life. Life in general my one time friend Johnny was trying to write that kind of a book. Another guy was attempting to do it. He wanted information about what is was really like living there. No one would talk to him. They said there was already a guy who lived it was attempting to write it.

Will he ever finish it? Who knows he as written other things some ok and some real bad

I don't need to be around to read it or see the movie. We were there who needs to see or read about it if you were there.
