Directed by Barry Levinson, The Alto Knights is a new biography/crime/drama starring Robert De Niro, Cosmo Jarvis and Debra Messing.
Levinson’s story focuses on Vito Genovese and Frank Costello, a pair of Italian Americans who run two separate crime families in the mid-20th century, and specifically, one’s attempt to assassinate the other.
It’s always interesting when an actor plays two characters who have to interact with each other face-to-face, isn’t it? The mind boggles at all that has to happen to ensure it all looks natural.
This is precisely the kind of movie that should come with a good long look behind the scenes. Also, it’s the great Robert De Niro who always impresses. Forever a joy for me to watch his skills in action.

Kathrine Narducci, Matt Servitto, Louis Mustillo, Robert Arce, Wallace Langham, Carrie Lazar, Belmont Cameli, Joseph Moreland and Bob Glouberman also star.
The Alto Knights Release Dates: March 21st, 2025 (US & UK)…

The Movie My Life 
I like this one, The way the story builds and I love De Niro, so… All good things. It’s exciting. 😊
Exactly. 😊 Watching this reminded me of how much I LOVED the teaser trailer for THE IRISHMAN (2019).
I love mob movies
Me too, especially with the likes of De Niro involved. 🙌
I haven’t watched a good old fashioned mob movie in a while, this looks interesting!
Same here. De Niro is so magnetic and this trailer did a good job, so, 🤞🤞
Interesting indeed. I haven’t heard of the real-life people behind this and De Niro keeps on trucking like Harrison Ford! 😀
Good to see you, Uri. The names sound familiar to me. Or it could just be that I know a lot of Italians. 🤓
As for De Niro, It’s great to see him well enough to be doing it a high level, still.🙏
Al Pacino, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart… as well! These guys are never retiring.
May they never. Please and thank you. 🤓🙏
I’m slowly getting back into the routine after a long vacation and holiday season. I’m planning to start publishing again more often.
Sometimes, we need those long vacations. I hope your plan comes to fruition. 🤓🥂
Ha Frank Costello is Jack Nicholson’s character in the Departed also.
Of course! 🤓 I’d completely forgotten about that. A character to be played by top-tier actors only, clearly.
