      Thanks.
      Not that nuts in reality?

      Was he on drugs or alcohol?

        I haven't seen it yet but I will, I have seen the South Korean movie about duk ku Kim, and it was excellent, although the actors for both Kim and Mancini looked too big.

          Just saw the first 2 eps. Very good.
          Who knows how much is true, but it's a high end production [relatively].
          Perhaps too drawn out, i.e., too many eps. But it's good.

              Not a doc. You know "based on...." In Spanish with English subtitles. Through 4 eps, pretty good.

                Ok. Might still be worth a visit. Your review is appreciated.

                Whether he was nuts or not.... he was a very violent man. His crime record proves that much.

                    He strangled his wife then threw her off the second floor balcony of a hotel. I think he then jumped down into the parking lot. His prior girlfriend took to wearing sunglasses because of the beatings he laid on her. Yeah he was nuts..
