For me it's totally the opposite, I don't like it when in a historical movie they don't speak the language they did in real life..

Like the movie Valkyrie for instance, Tom Cruise plays a German colonel but speaks English. It's just not realistic enough for me that way, but then again in my country we're used to subtitles, I can imagine when you're not used to it that it can be very annoying..

Billy your thinking is right in movie like the passion were everyone know the story and can avoid to read the subtitles when in a movie like apocalypto read the subtitles was very boring.

When they speak their own language with subtitles, it's ok. But it's weird when for example, in some American movies, foreigners speak to each other in English with an accent even when they are alone!

No he was ever a lone wolf because had seen what happened in the first mafia war and traveled to brazil for become a drug trafficker. During the second war tried to stay neutral but his 2 sons was victims of the lupara bianca on Corleonesi orders and for this he decided to flip.

Some curiosities: Buscetta was considerated "not reliable" by the old mafiosi because had many women without marry and and had many mistresses and when was in Brazil the word Buscetta means pussy,cut and his wife was
very embarrassed for this and don masino was forced to change his name in buschetta.

The Sicilian dialect is also spoken in the movie, which is why even the Italian version is partly subtitled.

I made a mistake. The old times mobsters in the 1950s blamed Buscetta because (in their mind) a man that married 3 times and was a womanizer wasnt stable and cant trust on him.Of course all this was hypocritical, given that everyone had mistresses but was disliked by who married several times,in fact Buscetta was "sospeso" aka punished because divorced by the fist wife.
