But the story of the Bufalino family is different. Defined not by flash or chaos, but by control, discipline, and a loyalty so deep it was never questioned. This documentary tells the rarely told story of Russell Bufalino, (the quiet mafia boss), and the players who were involved that many never heard about who kept national power while avoiding the spotlight, and his cousin Angelo Bufalino, a trusted lieutenant who remained loyal until the end. Together, they shaped the Bufalino crime family into a model of Mafia order and influence. While Russell was running rackets across Pennsylvania, Detroit, and beyond, Angelo was a staple in Pittston running Russ's businesses. All while staying largely invisible to the public eye. The documentary begins in Pittston, Pennsylvania, where the Bufalino family settled. Written by
