Real Gangsters wins best picture at Action on Film International Film Festival


TORONTO, Aug. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Frank D'Angelo's first movie production -
Real Gangsters, a star-filled mob film - continues to receive accolades by picking up
four more awards this past weekend at the 'Action on Film International
Film Festival' in Pasadena California including Best Teleplay, Best
Screenplay, Best Soundtrack and Best Picture. The film was nominated
for a total eight awards including Best Supporting Actress for Margot
Kidder's role.



The film has now won awards at two consecutive film festivals, most
recently winning best Canadian movie at the Italian Contemporary Film
Festival in Toronto.



This is a big accomplishment for first time movie maker Frank D'Angelo
who not only produced and directed the film, but also wrote the story,
and starred in the film along with a cast of seasoned actors. He also
wrote the soundtrack and performs most of the music in the film.



All in all, it's been a great summer for Frank D'Angelo as the hit
single "Dreamer" from the soundtrack of Real Gangsters hit the top 40's this past week
as the most increased and most added song on the MediaBase and AC Music
Charts.



At the 'Action on Film International Film Festival' Frank, also was
happy to announce the appointment of Audrey Loggia as his Manager for
Film and Screen; Audrey is also the longtime manager of screen legend
Robert Loggia. Now Frank is surrounded with two talented people,
including music industry veteran Jeff Burns who is his music manager.



Real Gangsters is a new-style, realistic mob film, starring: ROBERT
LOGGIA (Academy Award & Emmy nominee; Scarface, Independence Day, Jagged Edge, Big); STEVEN BAUER (Golden Globe nominee; Scarface, Raising Cain); JOHN SAVAGE (The Deer Hunter, Hair); MARGOT KIDDER (Superman movies, The Amityville Horror); NICK MANCUSO (Under Siege, Ticket to Heaven); MICHAEL PARÉ (Eddie and the Cruisers, Streets of Fire); ROBERT MANGIARDI (Death of a President); JOHNNY WILLIAMS (Goodfellas), SEAN MC CANN (First Do No Harm, Affliction, Tommy Boy), ART HINDLE (Paradise Falls, ENG), and many other talented actors.



Real Gangsters tells the story of the fictional Lo Giacamo family, one
of the most successful crime syndicates in New York City. Run by
cousins Vincent and Jack Lo Giacamo, Real Gangsters shows how these two
men maintain control of their dangerous extended family and volatile
business ventures by very different means. Vincent is the politician:
the man who always has a plan to help keep the peace, find common
ground, and bind blood and commerce to grow the family into a billion
dollar empire. Jack is the muscle: the hot head who is ruthless and
uncompromising living in the moment and acting based on how he feels.
Unfortunately for these two men, these two philosophies don't always
work together.



If you love mob movies, this is a must see film. Real Gangsters is an
adrenalin rush. A constant roller coaster ride of classic crime, class
acts, and the thrill that comes from living life on the edge, one day
at a time, when at any moment you may have to put your life on the line
to serve and protect the family.
