Hieu and I watched the Scorsese film Casino, which we learned was based on a true story. Much of it did in fact happen though at times the context was changed. The brutal Joe Pesci character was based on real life gangster Anthony Spilotro, who the FBI had implicated in at least 22 murders. He was known as Tony the Ant. He had 4 brothers who also became criminals and one brother who, according to this article, became a respected oral surgeon. I suppose any doctor with 5 brothers in the mafia is bound to get respect. It just goes to show you, every family has its black sheep. Some become oral surgeons. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Spilotro
