Knowing that the film is based on a non-fiction adaptation allows us to look at the details.
How does Irish Sydney treat people who bully their daughter? That person just pushed her once, and he ran to his shop and beat him in the face and stepped on his hand. I think it must be a serious injury now, but people can be well of. In that era, right after World War II, violence was everything, and you were the boss.
But I kept thinking that this daughter looked at her father's expression. Hoffa's daughter may see Hoffa the same way. Because he asked others to be on time, and he did not allow others to drink, and he hated watermelon, his subordinates poured the wine into the watermelon and soaked it thoroughly, and then ate the watermelon piece by piece, and Howard would not doubt it. He is that kind of person, and he won't talk nonsense if you deceive him under his nose. What about the arrogant person?
Of course Hoffa did the same to his wife! Josephine, never knew he owned a 22% stake in the Sun Valley, Florida land deal. Las Vegas was built in secret this way.
The one who complained the most was the Kennedy family. He made Robert's prep school hooligan as attorney general, and then wiped out all the hostile families and made money from them. They not only attacked Jimmy Hoffa, such a hostile. Also hit Giacana, Marcelo, Trafic Canterlot. These are the people who helped his brother get into the White House. Kindness and vengeance.
In the end, Hoffa served four years in prison. He was last killed in August 1975, but he was unlucky since Kennedy came to power in 1960, so that's the main span of the film. In the end only Mr. Sealand survived, the others were either killed or died of old age, he was the only aging stone. He chose the coffin and the cemetery by himself, and then wanted to see his daughter who didn't recognize him. In the end, he was left alone to watch TV, which was more lonely than death.

It's a great movie in many ways. The slang is the most important, and the interesting details in it are constantly added to the brain. And then there's its social organization, and it doesn't tell you who Hoffa is until about the first hour of the movie.
The first slang is to paint the house, that is, to kill someone and spray his blood on the wall.
The second slang is to use honey candy, which means to use dynamite.
Number 3 is a secret, if someone is going to shoot you, you have to go and subdue him! If someone has a knife, run as far as you can.
Fourth, carry two guns when assassinating. When blending, be sure to exclude the 22 caliber first. You must not bring a silencer, you have to make a lot of noise to scare away witnesses and make them afraid to look at you. But the .45-caliber pistol was so noisy that the police in the patrol car could hear it from a few blocks away. The cops refer to the .32 caliber pistol as a women's pistol, which is easier to use and less lethal than the .38 caliber pistol, but it's good enough.

An extremely smart movie, when the first half tells you that this ruthless character who served as a soldier under Patton has been deeply involved in the underworld. The second half talks about these union members, so I will tell you what American history is like?
Who are these union leaders? All of them are self-righteous workers who, because of the support of the vast crowd, are playing with the union fund of hundreds of millions. And these funds have attracted the power of the White House and underground gangs.
It actually tells you that the history of the White House in the United States is the history of labor unions and the underworld. You can't be president without the support of the underworld and unions. But you can't be union president if a president like Kennedy goes against you. Hoffa, like Patton, had a big mouth and was too sculpted, so he ended up falling.
In the United States, the underworld is the most secure. But the underworld happens to get together, haha, most people died after being shot 6 times in the face.
Another interesting phenomenon is that the codes behind them are very complicated. So sometimes it's: Jews and Italians unite in support of an Irishman.
Crowds, power, money and ideology.
So you know, Kennedy, Hoffa is going to die. JFK is still a suspect case. One in the light and one in the dark.
The Chinese have long said that a strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake.

The Godfather series and the American past, only about the underworld. But if you combine the underworld with the union and the presidential election, it will get through.
“When I was young, I thought house painters painted houses, what did I know? I was a working guy, a business agent for teamster local 107 out of south Philly.
When Bufalino's lawyer defended him, he said he is an exemplary employee Who in eight years has never taken a day of sick leave. Driving a big truck in the guild is his 8-year history. It was also what happened to him when he returned home after World War II.
This film introduces the characters in a very special way, in the way they die. We know that there are three people wearing gold rings in the film - the Irishman himself, plus:
Angelo Bruno – shot in the head sitting in his car outside his house, 1980
Russell Bufalino, From Catania. His wife Carrie came from mob loyalty—The Sciandras.
There are still some big bosses left.
The way we die determines our existence.
