The
Film The Mafia Did Not Want You To See
Sentenced to
15 years in
prison, former mob "button man" Joe Valachi (Charles Bronson) turns
informant when he learns top Mafia capo Vito Genovese (Lino Ventura) has put a
$100,000 contract out on his
life. From thievery and extortion to
vengeance and murder,
Valachi spills the innermost
workings of the Cosa
Nostra, culminating in
his riveting testimony before a
Senate subcommittee on organized
crime. Based on Peter
Maa's best-selling book, The Valachi Papers is gripping,
shocking and absolutely
true, "a hard-hitting, violence-ridden documented melodrama of the underworld"
(Variety).
