- Post subject: what's the best gangster movie?
|
Usually people just think of mafia movies when they think of gangster movies, but by.gangster movie I also mean ANY kind of criminal gang.
These are my favorite ones
The Krays
Bonnie and Clyde
The Godfather Part 2 ( or Part 1, dont matter)
Prince of the City
Goodfellas
Miller's Crossing
The Big Heat
Thieves Like Us
The Pope of Greenwich Village
The Grifters
King of,the Gypsies
The Warriors

Gomorrah
City of God
A Prophet
In Bruges
Pale Flower
&
Sin Nombre

I would... um... perhaps be opposed to this. Unlike romance or horror, 'gangster' is reeeaalllly hard to define. _________________ Submit Your List for BEA's 2023 Film Poll!
