Donnie Brasco
" In 1978, the US government waged a war against organized crime. One man was left behind the lines."
" An FBI undercover agent infilitrates the mob and finds himself identifying more with the mafia life to the expense of his regular one." Very good movie. True story too. Starting Al Pacino and Johnny Depp.
