Why are the Lefty gang not supposed to talk about Florida?
In Donnie Brasco (1997), the Lefty gang came back to New York by plane and gathered together to discuss their illegal business, i.e. shakedowns and hijackings:
Sonny Black: What do you got, Nicky?
Nicky: I got a guy boosted 30 tickets to Chaka Khan at the Garden.
Sonny Black: What about Florida?
Nicky: I thought we weren't supposed to talk about Florida.
Why aren't they supposed to talk about Florida?
Best Answer
Because Florida was a complete failure for the gang. It was supposed to bring them massive profits and increase their status in the organization, instead it was a bust and a complete embarrassment.
