Isn't There an Italian To Play the Italian character falcone ?

Rating: 6/10 (29 June 2005)

No disrespect to Tom wilinson, Obviously the name carmine falcone is Italian, Obviously Carmine falcone's Character was an Italian Cosa Nostra Mafia Boss, as I'm sure with a lot of us, Were all fascinated even today when an Italian mafia Don makes an appearance in a TV show or a film. However, With all the Italian-American Actors, why do they have to play a British actor to put on a fake American accent and get him to try and talk like an American Mafia Don ? Why couldn't an actual Italian-American actor play the Italian-American character carmine falcone ? I could understand if there was a shortage of Italian-Americans out there,But there are so many of them, Mostly great actors, just take a look at the Sopranos. Disappointing casting, But i still rate the Movie highly.
