Bonus Pick, I mentioned, Hollywood movie-

The Departed (2006), is a gripping crime thriller that explores themes of loyalty, deception, and identity. Set in Boston, the film follows two moles: an undercover cop (Leonardo DiCaprio) infiltrating an Irish mob, and a mob informant (Matt Damon) embedded within the police force. Their parallel lives collide as they race to uncover each other's identities.
