Frank Costello was based on the actual Boston gangster, Whitey Bulger. The details are not the same, but they couldn't make a movie about Bulger at the time, since he was an active case.

Great movie. Iβm pretty sure the brown envelope at the end is to give to Dignum if he dies, thatβs how he knows it was Colin in the last scene.

The one time you get a movie with a high rating on Letterboxd and you didn't check it! (4.3/5 for anyone curious)

One of the greatest!

There is one theory that an X shows up on screen behind everyone who dies in the movie. Worth looking up on google if you get a moment!
