Geri McGee story. In the film, the Rosenthals only have one daughter, Amy, while in real life McGee had three children. The film also implied that McGee was a part-time hustler (and perhaps a prostitute), and that her friend and lover Lester Diamond (played by James Woods) was her pimp and mentor since she was 14. In actuality, there is no evidence that McGee ever was a prostitute. The script also changed the couple's names from Geri McGee and Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal to Ginger McKenna and Sam "Ace" Rothstein (played by Robert De Niro), and Lenny Marmor to Lester Diamond.

Von Rothstein Von Rothstein von Rothstein is a Swedish noble family, tracable to Alingsås in the 17th century. In 1714, the orphan Anders Rothstein (1698–1772) settled in Stockholm where he entered the service of tradesman Olof Höckert. He later became a city councillor and representative of the city in the national diet 1751-1752 and 1760-1762. His son, merchant Simon Petter Rothstein (1730–1806) was ennobled in 1782 by Joseph II, Holy Roman Emperor with the name "von Rothstein". The family has never been "introduced" in Sweden (i.e. naturalised as Swedish nobility), and thus is considered unintroduced nobility. The architect Edvard von Rothstein (1821–1890)
