(running time 123 mins)
Power, betrayal, and a bullet that changed everything.
The Alto Knights explores the tense rivalry between Vito Genovese and Frank Costello, two powerful Italian-American mobsters vying for control of a major crime family in the mid-20th century. As their conflict intensifies, Genovese attempts to assassinate Costello in 1957, a pivotal moment that leaves Costello gravely wounded but alive.
Despite the attack, Costello ultimately chooses to retire from the mob, distancing himself from the violent underworld. The film delves into the complexities of loyalty, power, and betrayal within the Mafia, shedding light on the brutal choices these men made as they navigated a dangerous, cutthroat world.
