Ante su ataúd, sus dos hermanos mayores, Ray y Chez, dos hombre torturados por su violento pasado, claman venganza. La vendetta ha comenzado y nadie está libre de ella."@es

  • "In 1930's New York the Tempio brothers are known all too well in the underworld. As racketeers they provide protection for the unions and lean heavily on busines owners. A rival mob leader has asked them to lighten the pressure on a businessman who is being forced to lay off union workers. Johnny refuses and later is found gunned down in the street. His murder rocks the family, who must now make the next move, knowing any act of revenge could trigger a devastating all-out war."@en
  • "The three Tempio brothers could not be more different, yet they are bound together by a childhood experience-- their father forced them to kill a man in cold blood because he had dishonored the family. Ray (Walken), the oldest brother is the strongest, the one who keeps the brothers in line and runs the business. Chez (Penn), the middle brother, runs on a volatile, tormented mix of heightened sensitivity and explosive anger. The youngest, Johhny (Gallo) is a man who yearns to break free of the old world pall that shadows his family. When Johnny is gunned down in cold blood, his murder forces Ray and Chez to examine their own mortality and question the logic of revenge."@en
  • ""Centers on the family lives and personal relationships of three racketeering brothers: Ray, the oldest; middle son Chez, the most volatile; and Johnny, the most overtly political. ... Pic begins with the placement of Johnny's coffin in Ray's living room, surrounded by huge bouquets of flowers from both desirable and undesirable members of the community. In a labyrinthine narrative, basd on lengthy flashbacks, Ferrara and writer Nicholas St. John unfold the multigenerational saga of the Tempios, an Italian-American family torn apart by a tradition of violence. Though close to one another, the three brothers are very different in their personalities, politics and approach to life. The strongest, most rational--and most coolly cruel--of the three, Ray contrasts sharply with both the temperamental, violence-prone Chez and the charming Johnny, who's committed to leftist politics. The women in their lives are also vastly different. Ray is married to Jeanette, a bright, educated woman unafraid to express her opinions even when they diverge from hubby's. Chez's spouse, Clara, is quietly sensitive and long-suffering, and handsome Johnny is engaged to the shy and beautiful Helen. Dramatically pic revolves around the mystery of who shot Johnny and his brothers' almost animalistic determination to avenge his death"--Variety review by Emanuel Levy, September 9, 1996."@en
