TONY SPILOTRO – CASINO. Why Did Mafia Off Las Vegas' Top Criminal?

Video Description

The movie "Casino" came out in 1995. It became a practical overnight sensation and intrigued the audience with its characters. Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci portrayed the main characters and despite their names being altered in the film, they were based on very real people. Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal and Tony Spilotro had many shady dealings in Vegas and almost all of the scenes from the movie, including the one where Tony squeezes a guy's head in a vice are all true and we will talk about many of them today. The fate of Spilotro is especially interesting, since, unlike Rosenthal, who tried to do business quietly, Tony became an uncontrollable psychopath and gangster in Vegas, and was ultimately hunted by the entire state police force. His unbridled temper led to terrible and irreversible consequences for the Chicago mafia. But Spilotro wasn't always like that. Very soon you will find out how a simple boy from an Italian immigrant family becomes a vicious and ferocious gangster and what happens to those who lose control and stop listening to their bosses. At the very end of the video, we will tell you an interesting fact about one of six Spilotro brothers who didn't become bandit and how their destinies ironically crossed at the end of their path. #tonyspilotro #spilotro #casinomovie
