The brzilian Goodfellas

[Dogberry]

Anyone seen City of God?



It is 5 years old now but i watched it for the first time last night. it is billed as a brazillian gansgter movie, set in the favellas in Rio.

The only difference being that the players are all under 20, in most cases much younger (in one seen a young boy shoots other 'gangsters' who are aged about 7 and 12). Frighteningly it is quite true to life and like Goodfellas it is based on fact.
