Carlo Gambino: The Fall of Kings The Rise of Shadows The Political Mafia Series 3 The Gambino Family

Описание: In this sweeping historical crime documentary, we unravel the secret history behind America's most powerful underworld figures and the political titans who moved alongside them. From the violent downfall of Joe Masseria to the calculated murder of Salvatore Maranzano, this film chronicles how a young Charles “Lucky” Luciano reshaped organized crime into a corporate empire—and how a quiet, unassuming Carlo Gambino began his quiet ascent.

You’ll witness the chaos of Vincent “Mad Dog” Coll’s rampage through New York, the deadly numbers racket run by Dutch Schultz, and the creation of Murder, Inc.—the Mafia's own hit squad. But this is more than just a tale of gangsters. As the Mafia tightened its grip on the streets, it also reached deep into the veins of American politics.

Through backroom deals, courtroom drama, and secret sitdowns from Cleveland to the Claridge Hotel, mobsters mingled with senators, judges, and even men of the cloth. The legendary Judge Seabury’s crusade against Luciano, the shadowy influence of Cardinal Dougherty, and the pivotal 1932 Democratic Convention in Chicago are all laid bare—revealing how Franklin Delano Roosevelt rose to power with Tammany Hall’s backing, while Al Smith’s final warning fell on deaf ears.

This is a saga of betrayal, empire-building, and political manipulation. From alien smuggling to Harlem’s numbers racket, from hotel suites to assassination plots—The Family Man dives deep into the murky alliance between organized crime and American democracy.

Watch the rise. Witness the betrayal. Learn the truth.
