- Around 1960 he wanted to produce a (semi-fictional) movie on a mafia theme, and hired Mob legend Lucky Luciano as "historical consultant" for the script. Before long, this service was canceled by a message from Meyer Lansky to Kuciano, telling him to cop out. He resolved, however, to tell Gosch the story of his life. The result was "The Last Testament of Lucky Luciano" (1975) - augmented by careful research by Gosch and co-writer Richard Hammer, but much of it in Luciano's own words. His inimitably stylish and perceptive first-person stories about life and death in the Golden age of the Mob, make this a Mafia classic, where often, you can sense Gosch's sensitive hand in the dramatic precision of dialogue and setting.
