Mikey and Nicky

You're a small-time gangster with a bleeding ulcer, sweating through a motel sheet, certain the boss has put a price on your head. You call the only guy you trust, your oldest friend, to talk through the dark. He shows up with jokes and bad timing, pretending everything's fine. The city hums with payphones and parked cars. It’s 1976 and nothing feels safe, not even loyalty.
