Find Me Guilty (2006)
The courtroom drama is based on the real-life trial of New Jersey's Lucchesi crime family, the longest Mafia trial in U.S. history. "Find Me Guilty" is based on the true story of Giacomo "Jackie Dee" DiNorscio (Vin Diesel). After years of federal investigation, 20 members of the New Jersey Lucchese crime family are brought to court on 76 charges of various crimes. Already in the midst of serving a 30-year sentence, Jackie is offered an opportunity to shorten his time by testifying against many of his closest friends. But Jackie refuses to betray his "family," and goes so far as to defend himself in what will ultimately become the longest criminal trial of its time. (read more)

Sidney Lumet did an excellent job of writing and directing this courtroom dramedy featuring Vin Diesel and Peter Dinklage (The Station Agent).

I also have to say...

Director Sidney Lumet's (Twelve Angry Men, The Pawnbroker) best work in years, and easily Vin Diesel's best work yet (perhaps his only really praiseworthy work yet), this is the kind of story no one would believe for a second if it weren't all true. Diesel is fantastic as Jackie DiNorscio, a mobster who chooses to defend...
