BlackFlagg 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2004 The whole thing is based on a True story, they actually had a show on it on the History Channel and it was pretty much dead on... One funny part is the real Sam didn't want the movie to be made...until he found out DeNiro was gonna play him, heh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest thebigjig Report post Posted April 6, 2004 Spoiler I dont think so... I've seen the movie about 5 times and I cant really remember the daughter even being mentioned after Sam's wife was arrested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MD2020 Report post Posted April 6, 2004 In the book.... Spoiler She goes on to become a swimmer. Pretty good, but not Olympic Quality, even though she tried out for the team. I think Sam pretty much gives up the life, except for handicapping. But it's been a while since I read the book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He better be careful. The middle daughter in Family Matters one day went to her room, and then was written out of the show. She ended up in porn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
