Casino 1995
I'm such a big fan of the Italian mob genre and this was a wonderful addition to the list of films that do justice to it.

Our children are the future but we are also the present and we have to persevere. I see my mother, my friends, my dad and myself in Earth Mama. Our troubles, our battles but most of all our hope and triumph.
