“And Shepherds we shall be For thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti.”

[Eric Pode of Croydon]

"But if Caspar ain't stiff in a couple of days....I start eating is restaurants."

And can you ever listen to "Danny Boy" again without thinking of Leo?

[jimjohn]

Michael Collins. Not a gangster flick, but should definitely the on the list.

Jimjohn from Killarney, Kerry, IE - out.

Purely by coincidence I started watching Boardwalk Empire last weekend, about half way through. Good stuff.

[M Kehoe]

Bttt.

5.56mm

[Dutch Boy]

LOL....

“And like others denied the benefits of “The American Dream,” crime offered opportunities for advancement”

Don’t remember what book I read but it said the Irish mafia replaced the Jewish mafia. Followed by the Italians.

Gangs of NY is my favorite.

State of Grace was amazing

[Georgia Girl 2]

I’d rather just watch Boondocks Saints. LOL!

I’m married to an Irish woman. Continue to pray for me.

Every St. Pats she whips out that DVD...and the Jameson. If anyone hasn’t had the luxury of seeing the deleted scene of their mothers call...It’s a frightening insight. ;)

Not a gangster movie, but one of my favorite Irish movies is “The Commitments”

[wheresmyusa]

Not gangster for sure. My old man turned me on to that one, because he knows i love that music. Good stuff.

The Commitments is a great movie. Another sleeper hit is
Hear My Song (Trailer 1991)

[Kid Shelleen]

I agree about “Black Mass”. If Hollywood made up a story like that you would never believe it and you would probably laugh at the thought of Johnny Depp playing the lead but Depp was absolutely terrifying as Bulger.

I would have watched it last night but I got too blitzed at my Irish tea. My sister in law and I partied hard. I must got up and am eating a leftover scone. LOL!
