| Plot: | Young Vincenzo Cortino, son of a Sicilian postman, delivers a package for his father and accidentally sees something he should not see. In a donkey's, well, he is smuggled out of town, where he tries to reach a ship headed for America. There, Vincenzo works his way up to the top of the Mafia. One day, his youngest son makes a mistake and has to leave town. A little later, he ends up as a casino boss in Las Vegas. But the heads of the other families want old Don Cortino out of the way. So, they shoot him 47 times and send a *very* attractive woman to distract his son from his casino work. Will he fall for her or will he return to Diane, who, by the way, had run for President successfully in the meantime? |

Quotes
|
Anthony Cortino: You lost a lot of blood but we found most of it. Anthony Cortino: I'm not my father, Diane, just like you're not your father. If we were our fathers, what we did last night would only be legal in Arkansas. Anthony Cortino: If you prick a murderer, does he not leave a blood trail all the way back to his Rockingham estate? Diane: I'm always going to be That Protestant Chick Who Never Killed Anybody! [to his girlfriend, discovered sleeping with his brother] Anthony Cortino: How could you do this? A total stranger I could understand. You and another woman, maybe. Me, you and another woman, definitely! But my own brother? [Emerges soaking wet from a bathroom stall] Anthony Cortino: El Nino. Anthony Cortino: Criminals are people, too! Anthony Cortino: Gianini... any Sicilian in you? Pepper Gianini: Not since last night. Anthony Cortino: Some would argue that the Mafia is a bad thing, that it uses its power to undermine law and order, to promote the very lowest forms of human behavior. Of course, that's all true, but in the end, maybe it's worth it. Anthony Cortino: Diane, would you excuse us? Diane: Oh, yeah, sure. If you need me, I'll be up on the bidet. Pepper Gianini: All right all right! But we didn't actually SLEEP! Diane: Ooh, Italian food! Anthony Cortino: [home from the war] I got you a souvenir. Dominick Clamato: Oh, wow! A North Korean! Vincenzo Cortino: [saying a toast] Marriage is like a piece of cheese. Giant hitman: Say hello to my little friend. [opens his coat to reveal a midget with a gun] |
