This is the best Boston crime movie, but nobody ever talks about it!
The Friends of Eddie Coyle is such an amazing movie, with an all-time great performance by Robert Mitchum, an amazing supporting cast, and on-location shots all over 1970s Boston.
If you’ve never seen it, do yourself a favor and give it a watch. I believe it deserves to be talked about in the same breath as other 1970s crime thrillers like The Taking of Pelham 123, Serpico, and Dog Day Afternoon. It’s that good!
