    Awesome movie and cool character for a movie. He definitely lead an interesting life, but at the end of the day he was a crook AND a snitch, IMO. I'll save my RIP's for people that make an honest living.

    Man, I sound like a grumpy old fogey don't I?!? lol

    I saw this and was saying to myself, "I know this name, I know this name..". Then it hit me - the rat who squealed. One of my favorite movies though.
