It was obvious that Williamson and Cohen were following the character arc established by the Godfather, but they really made it their own. And you sure were right about the horse-drawn drive-by. However, I did think they would at least be in full gallop or a trot. It was more like a saunter-by. It was still pretty slick, though for its unexpectedness. - JEP Doug G.-

It's a classic tragedy -- a man truly driven, but whose drive is destined to lead to his downfall. Also love when movies are brave enough to give you a protaganist who's complex and not always sympathetic. (No means no, Tommy!) Also ... "The Boss" has been in my head all week. I am not complaining. Great breakdown, Jay. Told you there was a horse and buggy! Damn Amish mobsters.
