Back in 1997 I saw Donnie Brasco in the movie theater.
This gangster movie features Johnny Depp as FBI agent Pistone who goes undercover in the Mafia as Donnie Brasco, and much longer than anyone should be undercover.. Other stars are Al Pacino, Michael Madsen and many more. It is a great movie and even then I knew it was based on a true story.
Of course, "based on a true story" can mean different things depending on the film. Some follow the events closely while others keep a name or two as well as a few minor events before pulling the rest of the script from where the sun doesn't shine.
Today I have a documentary for you about the real events depicted in Donnie Brasco. What happened and what was fiction

That's that and all that. Join me again next time, and until then, have a great week!
