Charlie and Paulie now find themselves deep in hot water, especially since the money they've stolen belongs to Bedbug Eddie, a neighborhood gangster now seeking revenge on the petty thieves. [More]

Reviews for The Pope of Greenwich Village
A colorful, funny and very authentic slice of New York City street life. One of the most underrated, overlooked films of the 1980s.
A gangster story with an odd Horatio Alger point-of-view. It's nonsense, but it's nonsense with some unpredictability and a conman's easy style.
