This is probably one of the best Mafia movies ever. It is funny, surprising, and achingly sad. Decades before Godfather, this film shows aspects of organized crime reaching into lives an upwardly mobile supervisor class family. The surroundings of the film are powerful from the operation of an automobile plant, to a dusty town in Sicily, to a transatlantic fight in a crate to the mean streets of New York City. Don't miss this film. There are several DVD versions of this film, but the Criterion disk, as always, is far superior. Don't waste money on the rest. This version is not available on Amazon.

One of the best black comedies ever made. Hilarious, poignant, beautifully shot and acted. Must see!

Having traveled to Sicily many times to see family and knowing the continuous issue with the North & South, this "comedy" was perfectly done. Slows down near the end with the Mafia stuff but otherwise another Italian classic.
