Black Mass

I've seen it several times over the past year. All the actors did a pretty good job in their roles and Joel Edgerton as John Connolly sure made for a hell of a corrupt Federal Agent the way he aided Bulger all those years.

There's no wonder the real John Connolly got a 40 year prison term when all the shite that hit the fan finally got settled.

I find Depp to be a very good actor and he pretty much immerses himself in the roles he's playing. Too bad he's come off as such a flake in real life.


Edited to add this: If you've not already seen "Public Enemies" with Depp as John Dillinger, give that a look. Christian Bale is also in it and plays Agent Melvin Purvis in it. Another movie with a great cast and fine acting.

Black Mass came out in 2015, TP wrote an article about him living in Grand Isle in 2011

Likely wasn't important enough to come out in the movie since he was on the run for so long and probably lived in many different locations during that time.

Most of the movie takes place before he went into hiding, I was joking.

The Whitey Bulger doc about his case against the Govt from 2014 is pretty good - it's free to watch on a bunch of different platforms
