Storyline...
The almost unbelievable true story of  Daniel JohnPatrick Greene
Danny Greene... a tough impoverished but charismatic young Irish-American thug working for mobsters in Cleveland during the 1970's.

Danny rises to power as president of the longshoreman's local union and is charged with corruption but evades serious jail time by becoming an FBI informant.
With fearless nerve he joins forces with a Mafia gangster to rise to power in Cleveland's underworld, gaining the reputation of a Robin Hood-like figure with nine lives as he escapes countless assassination attempts.

Great Story & Movie, Lots of Classic Cars in it... 
Based on Danny Greene’s real life!
