As you will see in the movie it is based on Danny Greene the Irishman born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio who started his own loan sharking, gambling, etc. The known figure who challenged the Mafia.
Growing up, his mother died and father couldn't take care of him so he was left to grow up in an orphanage. He would get jumped by a group of Italian kids constantly. He became a high school drop out and served in the Marines for a couple of years, then became a worker as a longshoreman on the Cleveland docks. When getting tired of that he was a Union organizer then became the Union Boss. He always displayed how much he loved his culture of being Irish, example, by painting the office green. Rumor had it that he may have been a snitch for FBI because he never faced major penalty charges.
Danny was married twice and had five children. He himself was killed by a car bomb and after that incident tons of people were caught and sent to jail, etc; and to this very day it is claimed that there has been no more Mafia or underground crimes in Cleveland.......................Supposedly
