The Godfather: When the aging head of a famous crime family decides to transfer his position to one of his subalterns, a series of unfortunate events start happening to the family, and a war begins between all the well-known families leading to insolence, deportation, murder and revenge, and ends with the favorable successor being finally chosenThe Untouchables: Depiction of the true battle between Al Capone and Chicago Treasury officer Elliot NessGoodfellas: A young man grows up in the mob and works hard to advance himself through the ranks, enjoying the life of the rich and violent. Adapted from the book by Nicholas PileggiScarface: In the spring of 1980, the port at Mariel Harbor was opened, and thousands set sail for the United States. They came in search of the American Dream. One of them found it on the sun-washed avenues of Miami; wealth, power and passion beyond his wildest dreams. He was Tony Montana. The world will remember him by another name. Starring Al Pacino as Tony Montana, this film has become a cultural phenomenon brilliantly directed by Brian De Palma and written by Oliver StoneGangster Squad: Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless mob king Mickey Cohen runs the show, reaping the profits from the drugs, guns, prostitutes and every wire bet placed west of Chicago. He does it all with the protection of his own paid goons and the police and politicians who are under his control. It's enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop-except for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O'Mara and Jerry Wooters, who come together to try to tear Cohen's world apartLawless: The true story of the infamous Bondurant brothers: bootlegging siblings who made a run for the American Dream in Prohibition-era Virginia. In this epic outlaw tale, inspired by true-life tales of author Matt Bondurant's family in his novel The Wettest County in the World, the loyalty of three brothers is put to the test against the backdrop of the nation's most notorious crime wave
