Correction: I meant Flemmi’s stepdaughter.

The only two movies of his I like just happen to be ones where his character dies.

Broken Arrow, and The Punisher.

Best movie about Gotti is HBO's "Gotti" (1996) - with Armande Assante in the starring role and a bunch of actors who later became part of the Sopranos' cast.

Armand Assante does an amazing job in this role.

Well worth seeing if you are into mob movies. It's about 90 minutes long, and can be seen in it's entirety on YouTube.

The best thing about Travolta is his beard "wife", Kelly Preston

Yup,the defense focused on that (among many other things) during their questioning (Flemmi was a government witness).Unlike in the film Flemmi said that he took her shopping before luring her to the house...so the film wasn't exactly accurate on that point.

Just as an aside;before the trial began one morning I quickly said to Mr Wyshack "I watched Black Mass again last night to refresh my memory" and he smiled and said "I wish they had found someone with more hair to play me"...he has a full head of hair.A funny moment,MO.

I was listening to Mark Simone, on WABC, this morning and he was obviously at this premier last night. He raved about the film and said he thought it was Travolta’s best work ever..go figure.

It'll be interesting the next time Roger is on Mark's show.

Actually, I have some really fond memories of him in the movie, "The Experts." While it's been decades since I've seen it, and I'm sure it was a really bad movie, I really thought it was a fun movie.
