People know the names John Gotti and Al caponeThe outfit of Chicago and the five families of New York, but what about the Mafia of Philadelphia? Does it exist? Yes, the Philadelphia Mafia was probably – strictly It is known in the 1990s, when the sequence of the high mob hit regularly made previous stories in the city of fraternal love, and this murder occurred on a wide scale.
It was a short but bloody conflict between two warring mafia kingpins: an old guard led by John Stanfaand the “small guns” were fooled Joey Merlino – The classic conflict of common divisions. After Nicky Scarfo’s arrest in 1986, the scene opened up for a new mob boss in Philadelphia. The two suspects who stepped up to the plate are deeply opposed and incompatible, and start a chain reaction of violence to decide who is the new head Hancho.

In only three episodes, MOB War: Philadelphia vs. mafia It has a short window in which to cover a lot of details, but it keeps the right amount of time for the story at hand. Director Raissa Botterman He doesn’t waste too much time with needless head conversations and challenges (which happen to be used sparingly), and he does a good job of sticking to the facts and the players at hand.
Because this story, while perhaps mixed at times with so many characters and unclear credibility, shares the future, and Botterman tells the story straight. In the end, things came to the hands of violence where the violence between these two things of the mafia – there was an attempted drive-by murder of Stanfa near the Schuylkill expression, alone – the FBI ended up being involved to put an end to things. But it was still difficult to build an evidentiary case against the anti-access movement in the face of such widespread violence, and it required warming up to life like planting hangouts and planting bugs.

It’s easy for crowdsourced documents to be overly fragmented with conversations, photos and old clips. But Botterman begins to create a little by greeting the film, creating a pace that it uses to match the interesting octane of the real story it tells. The series features fast-paced editing and exciting music, in addition to an eccentric cast of characters with clothes that you think Mobsters only wear in movies.
It also helps that Botterman summarizes his conversations in the revolving door of various places instead of the place, indisputable space, from the bright bar in the offices The Philadelphia Eviirer even a stationary car. There are inherent limitations to certain types of writing, and most are often seen in the quality of the subject matter itself. So it’s good that Botterman goes the extra mile to add a little extra oomph to a story that probably didn’t need it.
