Hollywood pitch: It’s a buddy movie cept it’s three guys. And they ain’t guys.
Three mafia guys:
Boccso Mailiani: Tough, strong, and full of dark secrets. Handles collections.
Alphone Boute: This guy’s connected. You wanna reach someone, he can get a direct line, no problem. But first, cough up the money. Tall, but fragile.
Joey Giornalo: Got all the dirt on politicians and businesspeople. Runs finance scams on the side. A nerd, but stronger than he looks.
