@HairyKnuckles: WOW,great picture there,i've heard rumors DeNiro is having mob ties,wasn't sure,but now i am.


DeNiro´s best performances as an actor came as a mafiaguy. I´m sure that he met a few wiseguys over the years. Many of them seems to admire DeNiro for his work. Which is fully understandable if you ask me. But, let us not draw hasty conclusions about DeNiro´s mob ties.
This picture was taken in connection with DeNiro prepering himself for his role in "Analyze This". Well, that´s the official story anyway.

Absolutely, Hairy. And let's not forget that these guys are hardly bastions of liberalism. I remember reading a few years back where a few mob guys were picked up on a wiretap praising DeNiro as an actor, but ripping him apart for being married to a black woman. Their choice of words was pretty crude.
