just to clarify Scarface and Carlito way are not Mafia movies. Gotti, Hoodlum(kind of, and not that good but eh.) The Bonnano Family and i'll think of more or try to. Anyway Welcome to the board and happy posting.

Some great black and white classics
Public Enemy (Cagney)
White Heat "Top of the world,Ma"
Angels with Dirty Faces
Each Dawn I Die
Anything with Bogart and Cagney that involve crime are FABULOUS even in black and white

There is a movie called "Witness to the Mob" that I really liked but I think the rest of the world hated. I think Robert DeNiro had something to do with the making of it.

I know the "ONLY GODFATHER, GOODFELLAS, and UNTOUCHABLES ARE MOB MOVIES!!!11" crowd might not agree with me but I recommend:
Boondock Saints
Brother
Rent/buy these two, you'll thank me for it.
Go rent/buy Boondock Saints now on DVD~great mob action

Okay, I thought of 2 more (though neither were that great, in my opinion): Billy Bathgate (Dutch Schultz's mob) and Sugar Time (which was really more about Sam Giancana's relationship with one of the Andrews sisters). I suppose technically they're mob/gangster related.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Miller's Crossing and the comedy/parody that is Prizzi's Honor with Nicholson.
No, The Outsiders is NOT a mafia movie, not even a gangster movie. It's about growing-up, brother relationship and juvenile deliquency and following your dream. A very beautiful and touching movie by Coppola.

And from across the pond comes............ The Long Good Friday. It does have a Mafia family in it, although they don't mention their name. What about Miller's Crossing, Billy Bathgate (sorry just noticed it was mentioned)  , also Once Upon A Time In America, I know it has been mentioned but this is a Classic, so it deserves another. You've got me thinking now.... The Last Capone, not 100% on the title but it's about an illegitimate son of Al. Really crap, my brother saw the title and bought me it a few years ago. Cotton Club.... a semi musical Mafia film.. it's actually quite good.

I liked "State of Grace." Anybody else seen that? What did you think?
