I’m really stoked for this.. Lots of movies and television about Italian-American mobsters, but this is the first show I’ve seen about Italian-Italian mobs. Not the Mafia, but the Camora - Naple’s version of organized crime.
If it’s half as good as Rectify (the best show nobody watches) I’ll be all over it like stink on a chimpanzee.
I was going to ask if it’s any relation to the film of the same name, but I guess they are both based on the same book by a guy named Robert Saviano. The series will be touching on parts the movie didn’t cover.
The film is on Netflix, and probably worthwhile although I found it a bit strangely paced. I have no familiarity with the book. https://www.netflix.com/title/70100401
So I have it recorded but haven’t watched it yet. A 2 1/2 hour pilot? Yikes.
I guess this was imported from Italy, where it was very successful. I’m not expecting another Sopranos, but I’m confident it will at least be enjoyable.
