    Has DeNiro ever played anything other than a sociopathic, Italian-American (usually a mobster) from New York?  I guess there was that one time in Once Upon A Time in America where he played a sociopathic Jewish mobster from New York.  I'm beginning to think that DeNiro may just be a sociopathic Italian-American from New York playing himself on screen.

    Meet the Parents? Joker? The Intern? Sleepers? Wag the Dog? Silver Linings Playbook?

    Yeah, after I mentioned "Mystic River", I put a period.  My next couple references were just to movies, that Bacon wasn't in, but that played heavily on the organized crime/robbery element of Southie, Charlestown, North End, et. al. I meant Bacon was in a movie that played up this plotline.  Then two other movies also dealt with it, that yes, according to you and imdb, Bacon wasn't in.  However, I would argue, strongly with all the rep I have, that Kevin Bacon is very closely associated with the casts of both "The Departed" and "The Town", probably no further removed from any of those actors by more than 1 or 2 pictures.  I'll fight anybody who disagrees with this close association that Bacon has to Boston flicks.  treat this is a game if you want, but I'm dead serious.  

    he's been in so many i had to make sure i wasnt wrong.

    Wasn't Bacon an FBI guy in Boston in Mystic River also?  Plus The Town, plus The Departed.  It's been done a lot, but this cast looks phenomenal plus I've got a soft spot watching "organized crime" in Boston fumble around like my sister's teammates in Special Olympics softball.  Only thing dumber than an Italian in Chicago is an Italian in Boston who never got wise enough to get out from under the thumb of the Irish.  

    Fucking In.  

    he wasnt in The Departed.
