Movies are not acceptable references

[edit]

Removed the following passage from the article as it describes a scene in Goodfellas that has nothing to do with Tramunti:

This was also stated in the movie Goodfellas. In the movie, Lucchese capo Paul Cicero (based on the real life counterpart Paul Vario) warns the main character Henry Hill against drug dealing. In his conversion with Hill, he says "Listen, I aint gonna get fucked like Gribbs, understand. Gribbs is 70 years old and the fuckin guy's gonna die in prison, I don't need that. So I'm warning everybody, EVERYBODY. It could be my son, it could be anybody. Gribbs got 20 years just for saying hello to some fuck who was sneaking behind his back selling junk, I don't need that, aint gonna happen to me, you understand."



Actually, it does refer to Tramunti. It does for the following reasons:

  • Tramunti's nickname was Gribbs.
  • The individual recounting the incident is a Lucchese family capo, and also the

main character of the movie is based on the real life Henry Hill, a real-life Lucchese family associate.

  • The scene descibes the Tramunti's arrest for drug dealing accurately.
  • However, the movie gets two things wrong. Firstly, in reality Tramunti was sent to prison for 15 years, while the movie says that he was given a 20 year prison term. Secondly, the movie stated that Tramunti was 70 years old at the movie's

timeline, whereas in reality, Tramunti only lived to be 67. I hope i have made my points clear.Joyson Noel (talk)
