Fear City: New York vs The Mafia (Season 1)

Fear City: New York vs The Mafia (2020) is a three-part Netflix documentary you can watch online on iFILM. Director Sam Hobkinson built each episode from archival footage and on-camera interviews with the real participants — FBI agents, prosecutors, and former mobsters.

New York in the 1970s ran on fear and tribute. Five families controlled the docks, the garment district, the garbage routes — money flowed up and nobody talked. Ex-mobsters Johnny Alite and Michael Franzese describe the life from inside it. Agents Bruce Mouw, Jim Kossler, and Lin DeVecchio walk through the federal investigation that tried to crack the Commission from the outside. Rudolph Giuliani explains the legal strategy that made it stick.

No actors, no dramatizations. Three episodes, one unscripted account. Stream Fear City: New York vs The Mafia (2020) on iFILM.
