New York Times crime reporter Nicholas Gage recalls hate and revenge that inspired movie Eleni.

Описание: Former New York Times organised crime reporter, Nicholas Gage, harboured enough hate for the man who murdered his mother in Greece that he set out to kill the man 35 years later.
Nick famously told his story in a book which became the movie Eleni, starring John Malkovich, Kate Nelligan and Linda Hunt.
Eleni had been shot by communist soldiers during the Greek Civil war in 1947. Nick, as a small boy, had fortunately been sent off to America with three of his sisters.
Many decades later, after a successful career covering the Mafia and organised crime, and as a foreign correspondent in the Middle East, he sought out the man who killed Eleni and confronted him with a gun.
I met Nick in New York, shortly after the film was released. He recounted the feelings of hatred and revenge he felt, how he believed fate had cheated him and, of course, about his time as covering the mafia.
After the success of his book, and another, A Place for Us, and the film about his seeking revenge for his mother, Nick became a film producer and screenwriter.
He was executive producer of the film The Godfather Part III.
His most recent book is Greek Fire: The Story of Maria Callas and Aristotle Onassis.
Nick is 85 and lives in Massachusetts.

According to Wikipedia: His book Eleni, which has been translated into 32 languages, was awarded first prize by the Royal Society of Literature of Great Britain and was nominated in the category of best biography by the National Book Critics Circle.[3]
His most recent book is Greek Fire: The Story of Maria Callas and Aristotle Onassis, an account of the relationship between Aristotle Onassis and opera singer Maria Callas, which was published by Alfred A. Knopf in 2000.
Gage is the honorary president of the World of Epirotes and a recipient of The International Center in New York's Award of Excellence. He continues to speak throughout the world and writes for such publications as The New York Times and Vanity Fair.
