Married to the Mob
Married to the Mob is a 1988 American crime romantic comedy film directed by Jonathan Demme, written by Barry Strugatz and Mark R. Burns, and starring Michelle Pfeiffer, Matthew Modine, Dean Stockwell, Mercedes Ruehl, and Alec Baldwin. Pfeiffer plays Angela de Marco, a gangster's widow from Brooklyn, opposite Modine as the undercover FBI agent assigned the task of investigating her mafia connections.
The film was released on August 19, 1988, by Orion Pictures. It earned positive reviews from critics and earned several accolades; Pfeiffer was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical, and Stockwell was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
Demme called it "a complete escapist fantasy... fun to do, and very cathartic, revivifying."
Angela de Marco is the beleaguered housewife of "Cucumber" Frank de Marco, an up-and-comer in the Long Island mob. She is fed up with her husband's criminal lifestyle, and annoyed by the other mob wives. During an argument with Frank, she demands a divorce, but is quickly rebuffed.
Soon after, Frank is violently dispatched by his don Tony "The Tiger" Russo, when he is discovered to be also seeing the latter's mistress. Angela wants to escape the criminal underworld with her son, but is harassed by Tony, who puts the moves on her at Frank's funeral. This clinch earns her the suspicion of FBI agents Mike Downey and Ed Benitez, who are conducting surveillance, and also of Tony's wife Connie, who confronts Angela with accusations of stealing her husband.
After Tony lavishes Angela and Joey with gifts, they move to a small apartment on the Lower East Side. He has his people track her down there.
To complicate things, Downey is assigned to monitor Angela's movements as part of an undercover surveillance operation. He follows her around the city as she seeks employment, until he goes to wire her apartment.
Downey, going by Mike Smith, sneaks out of Angela's before she can catch him plant a bug. Angela goes to a hairdresser’s and gets a job. Mike bumps into her in her building, and she asks him out. On Friday night, as they are on their date, Tony narrowly escapes a hit across town.
