Irish Thought for April 13...

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.  Their purpose is to eventually rise within the ranks of the stat police department, 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 Massachusetts state police.  Now one cadet is an up-and-coming police official with a torn allegiance to his job and to the criminal mastermind who put him there.  Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, and Jack Nicholson.  Directed by Martin Scorcese.
