Kill the Irishman

Kill the Irishman 2011

Danny Greene is a legend in his time, as he was prominent in his Irish community as the one who took on the mafia in Cleveland during the 60’s and 70’s. Cleveland was dubbed as ‘Bomb City USA’ during the bombings of 1976 and Danny was right in the thick of it.

Kill the Irishman is a based on the true story of his life and dealings with the Mafia. The story starts with his clash with his union boss, and then moving onto bigger fish by starting the Irish Mafia in Cleveland. He was a true force to be reckoned with. This film is not a documentary but a portrayal of how it really happened. He certainly had the luck of the Irish on his side as the mob tried to kill him many times.

Directed and Written by Jonathan Hensleigh. Starring famous actors Val Kilmer, Ray Stephenson, Christopher Walken, and Vincent D’Onofrio as the leads.
