What should my thesis be for comparing Goodfellas and Casino?
Q. I need help constructing a thesis that compares the two movies Goodfellas and Casino. The thesis needs to connect the two movies and allow me to argue it for 4 pages. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A. "Martin Scorcese can make lots of money casting De Niro and Pesci in Italian mob movies, but only wins an Oscar when he tackles the Irish mob because the Godfather and the Godfather II ensured no Italian Mob movie will ever do so well with the Academy in consecutive sequels ever again"

What is the most realistic depiction of the mafia? Goodfellas or The Godfather?
Q. The Godfather crew enjoyed opera, fine wine and fine living, whereas the Goodfellas/Casino folks seemed to be more crass. Whats the real deal? Was there an upper crust/lower class division within the mafia?
Asked by attorneyinmichigan - Sat Nov 15 22:13:14 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Goodfellas for sure is the more realistic, being based on the memoirs of an actual Mob associate. The Godfather is an overly romanticized and wildly fictionalized portrayal of Mafia life even for the late '40s period in which its set. There was never any real honor or chivalry in the Mafia. Nobody ever referred to Mafia bosses as "Godfathers" before Puzo. And while it happens, it's very rare for a Mafia boss to be succeeded by his son.
