In GF 2, De Niro speaks a lot of Italian/Sicilian and I've been wondering how good he actually speaks that. For me it sounds as Italian as it can be, but I'm no Italian.

So I'm wondering what the Italian speaking members on this board think of it? Do you hear some accent or does he really speaks it fluently?

I've read that he went to Sicily for a couple of months just prior before they began filming to learn the Sicilian dialect.

Since De Niro is apparantly only part Italian could he really speak it before he appeared in GF2?

Even Al Pacino couldn't speak Italian and he's a full Italian-American as far as I know.
