    Connolly finally gets what was coming to him. Only 40 years, but at his age, he'll be in for the rest of his life.

    And yes, Black Mass is worth a read.

    My brother, who putters around in family genealogy, recently discovered that Debra Davis, the girlfriend of Steve Flemmi strangled by Whitey, was a not so distant relative.
     
  4. Isn't "The Departed" mainly a remake of a Taiwanese movie from earlier in the decade? The plot definitely is. It's possible the Matt Damon character was based on this guy, however.

    It is a remake, but like Pern, I think that the Nicholson character was tweaked to resemble Bulger.

    Yeah, that was the idea. Matt Damon's character is loosely based on Connolly.
