Not So Good, Fellas: Martin Scorsese has upset the Italian-American community with his newest film, “GoodFellas.” A watchdog group on ethnic injustice said that the gangster film, which stars Robert DeNiro, is “the worst thing that’s ever been done to Italian-Americans.” William Fugazy, of the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations, called the movie “cruel, ruthless and inaccurate.” The organization claims to have 10 million members. “We’re going to boycott it and we want Warner Bros. to ban it,” he said. “It’s the worst stereotyping, the worst portrayal of the Italian community I’ve ever seen.” The film opens Wednesday.
