They did not have fake lips in the 1940s. Poor film production. Get a better choice of actresses next time.
I accidentally watched first episode of season 2 when I assumed it was season 1.. which explains the start.
Then realizing what I saw was actually season 2, I then started watching season 1. From the first episode.. I had to put all my duties aside and spent an entire day (12+ hours) just filling my life with the whole season.
I have to put this right next to Sopranos. Much better than Gomorrah movie. Definitely more valuable to me than Godfather or any other Hollywood fantasy crap that portrays Italian organized crime as baby stuff.
Although any violence occurring in this show isn't as brutal as the reality is.. it still gives a touch of the brutality that the world of organized crime has, especially in the Southern part of Italy.
I must recommend this for all crime genre lovers. Roberto Saviano is now listed among my top favorite screenwriters. Despite a very few list on his filmography list; he somehow managed to hit the jackpot starting with his 2008 Gomorrah story. The modern Gomorrah series is just how fantastic his story develops into a modern perspective on the Italian organized crime story he told.
Apart from the creators.. acting was beyond brilliant.. no further comment!
