Irish Thought for March 10...

Irish-American Movies

The Departed

Years ago, a powerful Irish mafia figure placed a small selection of his youngest, brightest men into the Massachusetts State Police Academy as cadets to serve as the eyes and ears of their boss.  While somewhere else, a young cadet was assigned with an equally dangerous task: infiltrate the Irish syndicate headed by the man sending in his own to the State Police.  Now one cadet is an up-and-coming police official with a torn allegiance to his job and to the criminal mastermind that put him there, while the other cadet is the trusted number two of that man, only finding his professional duties are becoming blurred with his current state.  Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, and a stellar cast.  Directed my Martin Scorsese.
