A mafia story

Oh sure, 25 minutes still counts as a short film, I wasn't trying to say it wasn't. My point was that the really successful shorts are praised for travelling a complete story arc in as little time as possible. The shorter the better, and the closer you draw to that 30 min mark the more criticism you are likely to recieve along the lines of "So why wasn't this just done as a feature then?"

Basically I'm trying to say that your film should be STRONGER for being a short and not just a short because you couldn't afford to make it a feature.

Fair enough, lol but I really would like feedback on the actual piece though

Are you a mobster?  
Have you done any research on organized crime, other than what you have already seen on TV?

Write about what you know man!  Put your good writing to use.
