NOTES

Brothers of Brooklyn spans four generations of a family with a secret dark pastIn the fall of 1931, following an agreement led by "Lucky" Luciano to restructure the old Sicilian Mafia, one of three brothers was reportedly executed. Truth behind the brother's reported murder in a Gravesend, Brooklyn poolroom was silenced by his own, personal family members.Over 80 years later, his grandson, a former investigative journalist, discovers an archived local newspaper story on the internet about the incident. Shortly after, he finds a long-hidden photograph of his grandfather and sees his face for the first time. Now, he's inspired to go back to the past, hellbent on investigating the mystery behind this alleged cold-blooded killing and solving his grandfather's puzzling disappearance. Step into the shoes of this once relentless reporter, who dons his journalist hat again, and put the pieces of the puzzle together with him. While doing so, travel back to the dead-end streets of Brooklyn to the infamous Dannemora prison to Hollywood and lastly to the final resting place of America's most notorious mob legends
