UZBEK MOBSTERS BUSTED

A crew of Uzbek wannabe mobsters was busted Wednesday for swiping $4.5 million of cigarettes, high-end cheese and other goodies from warehouses across the Northeast — in a scheme straight out of “Goodfellas,” The Post has learned.

Crew leader Murad Khasanov and his cronies allegedly used a modern twist on an old-school mob heist — hacking into computer networks and creating forged invoices to convince warehouse workers to simply hand them the haul without ever needing to point a gun, law enforcement sources said.

WITH FATHER'S DAY ON THE HORIZON, WE RECENTLY WATCHED "A FATHER'S CHOICE" AGAIN...

A wonderful old Peter Strauss film----and we were reminded why we like him as an actor.

(Strauss, as many of you know, got his start in the Croton Shakespeare Festival)

And there he was----IN THE 2000 FILM, "A FATHER'S CHOICE".

The fast-paced city life of two sisters is turned upside down when they are sent to live in the country with their father after their mother is killed.

Predictable yes, but a great family story and the kind one seldom sees these days.....more's the pity....it starred Peter Strauss, Mary McDonnell, and Michelle Trachtenberg - available on Amazon
