The Untouchables [Blu-ray]

The Untouchables: This gangster film is one of the best works of the master of the genre Brian De Palma. The exciting, intense plot is based on the struggle of the police with the king of the underworld, the famous gangster Al Capone (Robert De Niro), who, as we know, managed to be put behind bars only as a tax evader. In Chicago in 1931, crime is in full swing. In order to stop the cold-blooded and invulnerable Al Capone, the government created a special team of “Untouchables”. The heroes of Robert De Niro and Sean Connery enter into mortal combat. Sean Connery received an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. A dynamic gangster film. Honest but naive federal agent Eliot Ness (Costner) learned (not without mistakes) to deal with both the criminal underworld and the police corruption of Prohibition-era Chicago. Connery won an Oscar for his portrayal of a hardened street cop (Best Actor). background). De Niro played Al Capone superbly. The shootouts are filmed as if you were participating in them. Based on a wonderful script by David Mamet. Nominations for music, art (Patricia Von Brandenstein, Hal Gausman) and costumes (Marilyn Vance-Straker) Ennio Morricone's indescribably beautiful music and special, deliberately “out-of-date” shooting style help us, the audience, to fully immerse ourselves in the era described.
