HENRY (V.O.) (CONT'D)
My social security cards and
driver's licenses were phonies.
I've never voted. I never paid
taxes. My birth certificate and
my arrest sheet, that's all you'd
ever have to know I was alive.
SLOWDOLLYIN TO Henry's face.
HENRY (V.O.)
The hardest thing for me was
leaving the life. I still love
the life. We were treated like
movie stars with muscle. We had
it all just for the asking.
CLOSEUP- JAMES CONWAY
seated at defense table in grey suit and rimless glasses.
He almost looks like one of his lawyers.
HENRY (V.O.)
Our wives, mothers, kids,
everybody rode along. I had
r paper bags filled with jewelry
stashed in the kitchen and a
sugar bowl full of coke next to
the bed.
In b.g., we see Mickey Conway crying.
HENRY (V.O.)
Anything I wanted was a phone call
away. Free cars and the keys to
a dozen hideout flats all over
the city. I'd bet twenty, thirty
grand over a weekend ..•

It didn't matter. When I was
broke I just went out and robbed
some more. We ran everything.
We paid off lawyers. We paid off
cops. Everybody had their hands
