Feedback: does anyone know the reality of Spider?
Posted by curiouscate on 01-01-2010 05:26 PM

Was there a Spider? Did this kid get killed? Pesci's character Tommy was an evil, frightening guy, so it is believable to me...but did it actually happen? And where were Spider's parents?

What was the first true-story film produced and when was it? I am writing a research paper on true-story movies and I can't find this information anywhere. Thanks in advance.
