Mob "Banker" Film, Federico Castellucio's Directorial Debut, Is a Gem
The Brooklyn Banker review By Nick Christophers Federico Castelluccio may be better known as "Furio," the name of the character he played on the acclaimed HBO series The Sopranos, but he has come a long way since then. He can now add to his resume the role of director of The Brooklyn Banker , a gem of a film that premiered last week at Manhattan's Cinema Village to a sold-out crowd. A national campaign also kicked off. The project, first released as a trailer titled Lilly of The Feast , came together last year, and is the brainchild of Federico and Michael Ricigliano , a prolific writer who penned the screenplay. The title was changed when the film was completed.
