The Sly version is erased from memory. I only remember what the original billboards said: "Caine Is Carter" Happy

yep, a constant air of menace few have. Liked Mean Streets too which was the entry level film to
all the other wise guy films.

The Japanese yakuza films are excellent.

In fact the Departed is a remake of a Hong Kong film called Infernal Affairs. It's better than the Departed.

Takeshi Miike makes some of the most disturbing films, mixture of ultra violence & surreal plot twists.
Also Takeshi Kitano makes proper Yakuza films

Dead or Alive
Ichi the Killer

for starters!

Performance (1970) one of the greatest films ever made, a staggering omission.

Bob Le Flambeur , 1955 a classic .
Lacombe Lucien , 1974 , not really a gangster movie but one that I know you will enjoy Baphornet . A great film that gets overlooked .

Lacombe Lucien has not passed by,  dunlaying a rare treat for anyone who hasn't seen it. I think i'll send copy to Corbyn

i watched Lulu the other week; a risqué film from 1980. I'm sure you've seen it,  dunlayingGrin
