Getting Gotti,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Getting Gotti (DVD)
"Getting Gotti" is a rare experience. A movie based on real, historic events which does not distort those events. Most movies "based" on true events in real life should have a disclaimer at the beginning that says "The names in this story are true. Only the facts have been changed." But that is NOT the case for this movie. The movie is the story of the first time John Gotti was put on trial for racketeering after he became the godfather of the Gambino Family in New York. In "Getting Gotti," actress Lorraine Bracco plays the starring role as Diane Giacalone, the Federal Assistant District Attorney who prosecutes Gotti in the case. Her performance is highly dramatic and she plays the role superbly. The confrontation between Giacalone and Gotti's attorney, defense witnesses, and Gotti himself make for excellent court room drama. And so do confrontations outside the court room, including those with officials including FBI agents who refuse to cooperate with her because the case interferes with their own agendas and strategies for getting Gotti. The first time I saw "Getting Gotti" was well before I had ever saw Lorraine Bracco play Tony Soprano's psychotherapist in The Sopranos. If anything, my good appreciation of her in The Sopranos may be prejudiced by her remarkable performance in "Getting Gotti" - not the other way around. Those who already enjoy seeing Loraine Bracco in The Sopranos should be thrilled to see her in "Getting Gotti."

I bought this DVD used and it was in perfect condition; no scratches. Also, really enjoyed the movie, it had one of my favorite TV actors Tony Denison (The Closer).
