Sliwa Wants ‘Gotti’ Movie Filmed Outside NYC


It has not been reported who is going
to play Sammy Bull in Fiore Films Gotti
production.
John Travolta is on board; so is Joe Pesci -- and Lindsay Lohan may be next -- but an effort is under way to stop filming of the new Gotti movie in New York City -- and behind it, none other than Curtis Sliwa.

The founder of the Guardian Angels has been claiming for years that Junior Gotti tried to have him clipped.

“…To think that he will now be able to profit from his lifetime worth of crimes is beyond the pale. To add insult to injury (literally in my case), to allow him to use the streets and locations of our fair city to line his blood laden pockets is absolutely unconscionable,” Sliwa wrote in a letter delivered to the mayor’s office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting Thursday morning.

Sliwa claims the movie may be a whitewash of Gotti's alleged criminal history. Sliwa also said the movie is a glorification of the “murderous reign” of John Gotti Sr. Read the rest -- Curtis Sliwa Wants ‘Gotti’ Movie Filmed Outside Of New York City--CBS New York.

  1. Exactly -- but I cover OC like a beat, and anything that impacts/might impact it is newsworthy.
