Not sure how to take that Dem, i just meant would Nord rather gangster flicks be reserved for their own future catagory. I've just been looking through my films now and if i include the likes of Goodfellas then I'm in business. If not then this may take some thinking. See to me also a crime film has to focus on the criminal(s), so even though say Dirty Harry indisputably has a lot of criminal shenanigans going on, the focus is on Harry, so it's a police film. I googled crime films and got lists including all sorts from Lethal Weapon to Silence of the Lambs.
