Don Q - Der Pate von Little Italy (DVD)

Al Quinto loses his mind. The rapid change in his beloved Little Italy is more than he can handle. Driven by his obsessive preoccupation with the Mafia – he spends sleepless nights watching gangster films and reading books about organized crime – Quinto undergoes a transformation. One day, he leaves his dreary apartment as the heroic and honorable Don Q, a respected mafia boss and self-proclaimed protector of Little Italy, who wants to bring back the old days at all costs.

Don Q is a unique, modern reinterpretation of the Don Quixote myth, set in the streets of Little Italy. Armand Assante shines in the leading role as an aging man who thinks he is a powerful mafia boss. The impressive cinematography captures the lively flair of Little Italy, while a top-class ensemble of charismatic characters makes for an entertaining and emotional film experience. A must-see for movie fans who love the Mafia movies.
