RIP, Sean Connery, he took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for this movie.
Well deserved!
The best supporting actor awards were created because of Connerys role in this movie.
I still love, 'Enough of this running shit!' And I like running!
@@paulfournier276 the best supporting actor award was created in 1936.
The man knew how to treat a lady.
No, Capone did not die from a gunfight. He died of cardiac arrest in 1947, "but his decline began earlier. After his transfer to Alcatraz prison, his mental and physical condition deteriorated from paresis (a late stage of syphilis). He was released in November 1939 and was sent to a Baltimore mental hospital before he retired to his Florida estate".
Frank Nitti committed suicide by gunshot on March 19, 1943.
He went out with a whimper
By the time he died his mind was so far gone he was fishing in his swimming pool.
It's was a stroke and pneumonia on January 25th 1947
Charles Martin Smith (Wallace) is severely underrated. Solid character actor (Starman, American Graffiti, Never Cry Wolf) and he’s done some directing too (“Stone of Destiny” with Charlie Cox and Robert Carlyle, and S1E2 of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”).
7:34 Andy Garcia, who’s Cuban, always seems to play an Italian.
CMSmith was also in the Season 2 premiere of Leverage, and was excellent in that role.
Andy Garcia does often play Italians, but if you're interested...
He plays twin brothers who are Mexican in the film, Steal Big, Steal Little.
It was a BEAUTIFUL film. The cinematography was amazing, wasn't it? Pre-CGI and the city scene looked so authentically 1920s. Capone showed signs of neurosyphilis early in his sentence and became increasingly debilitated before being released after almost eight years of incarceration. On January 25, 1947, he died of cardiac arrest after a stroke.
The train station scene with the baby in the stroller is a direct lift from Russian director Sergei Eisenstein’s 1926 silent epic, “Battleship Potemkin.” Kudos to Brian dePalma and his knowledge & appreciation of film history.
This film is a masterpiece, and one of the few movies I've seen in my life I would rate "A", as I don't give that grade out often. Amazing acting, music, story, directing, etc. Just a top shelf film.
Agree
"The Untouchables" was also a TV series from the 60's based on the adventures of Eliot Ness.
That first baseball bat to the head shot you can almost feel it. RIP Sean Connery
The stairway scene was a tribute to the Odessa Steps scene in "Battleship Potemkin". So epic!
it was!
My favorite line - "Who would claim to that, who was not?"
Narrowly followed by "How d'you think he feels now?--Bettah? Or wahse?"
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Great cast. Great acting. Great music. Great cinematography. I adore this movie.
All time
P.S.S. The music was by far the best part of this movie IMO. The composer was the legendary Ennio Morricone, who also did The Thing (1982), The Hateful 8, amd The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
Sean Connery stole the scenes. He was the ORIGINAL 007 James Bond.
And he could only play one character. He had to be the most overrated "actor' of the century.
@@gordonhaire9206 Wrong.
The reason you couldn't see the headshot when Stone shot the thug holding the bookkeeper hostage: He shot him right through the mouth when he opened it to say "two", which Stone finishes saying for him.
I genuinely get emotional at the Connery death scene every time I see it. It's so well done and Sean was magnificent.
Andy Garcia is so good in this. He’s in a small movie called City Island you guys might like.
If you're an Andy Garcia fan (and seriously, he's great in everything he does), check out Steal Big, Steal Little. It's indy, and more than a little tongue in cheek, but highly entertaining.
I love this movie; it's when I first fell in love with Kevin Costner.
Al Capone died from syphilis in 1947. In his later years he had the brain of a toddler. He's died at 48 years old. While in prison he was frequently attacked and abused by his fellow inmates.
My wife's cousin is in the movie his name is Billy Drago and he is the one wearing the white suit, unfortunately he passed away about 2 or 3 years ago
Three years ago. 😢
Great reaction, guys. You make such a good team. It's a somewhat fanciful fictionalised version of the real events, but a terrific movie with fine performances nonetheless. Fun fact: Capone was never part of the Mafia. You had to be Sicilian and he was Neapolitan. That's why he moved from New York to carve out his own turf in Chicago. Nailing him with tax evasion was a big PR coup for the cops, but there were actually plenty more to take his place.
Capone died of syphilis, and Ness, died basically of a broken heart- he could never get a hold of, and shut down, the Mafia like he wanted to.
Love the music score for this film.
Right from the opening credits, it sets the mood of tension and suspense.
Have one recommendation in movie for you: Cop Land (1997), this movie is excellent!
Wonderful reaction!!! TThanks so much. A delight to see.
Glad you enjoyed it
Prohibition was a weird law with a lot of holes. It was never illegal to drink or own alcohol. Cops didn't search individuals or care what was in their homes. It was illegal to Produce it and distribute it/sell it. But even that part had holes if it was considered medicinal. Doctors could give it out. So lots of people got alcohol from their doctor or illegally on the street obviously.
My favorite movie of all time. I love Chicago and its history. Some friends and I went to the train station just to walk through that scene on the steps, literally shot by shot.
oh man this one was too good!
Illness and death
Due to his failing health, Capone was released from prison on November 16, 1939,[130] and referred to the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore for the treatment of syphilitic paresis. Because of his unsavory reputation, Johns Hopkins refused to treat him, but Union Memorial Hospital was willing to take him as a patient. Capone was grateful for the compassionate care that he received and donated two Japanese weeping cherry trees to Union Memorial Hospital in 1939. After a few weeks of inpatient and outpatient care, on March 20, 1940, a very sickly Capone left Baltimore and travelled to his mansion in Palm Island, Florida.[131][132][133] In 1942, after mass production of penicillin was started in the United States, Capone was one of the first American patients treated by the new drug.[134] Though it was too late for him to reverse the damage to his brain, it did slow down the progression of the disease.[125]
In 1946, his physician and a Baltimore psychiatrist examined him and concluded that Capone had the mentality of a 12-year-old child.[89] He spent the last years of his life at his mansion in Palm Island, Florida, spending time with his wife and grandchildren.[135] On January 21, 1947, Capone had a stroke. He regained consciousness and started to improve, but contracted bronchopneumonia. He suffered a cardiac arrest on January 22, and on January 25, surrounded by his family in his home, Capone died after his heart failed as a result of apoplexy.[136][137] His body was transported back to Chicago a week later and a private funeral was held.[138] He was originally buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Chicago. In 1950, Capone's remains, along with those of his father, Gabriele, and brother, Frank, were moved to Mount Carmel Cemetery in Hillside, Illinois.[139][140]
If you want more Costner: Silverado, Revenge, Open Range, The Bodyguard, and Tin Cup are a few of my favs. Keep up the great channel.
sounds like a deal!
29:50 "He'd have wanted a cop to have it." Ness was a Treasury Agent. Stone was the cop, in the Chicago PD, on loan to the Treasury Dept.
Womderful to see you watching this terrific classic! Great score, actors, camerawork and direction and costumes and props!
Capone went to Alcatraz prison for tax evasion, just as the movie said, but he did not serve the entire 11 years. He was released early for health and humanitarian reasons. He had severe dementia from untreated syphlis which he died from soon after release at his retirement home/mansion in Florida.
I've been to Alcatraz once last year.
Ness wasn't a cop. He was a Prohibition Agent in the Department of Treasury assigned to enforce the Volstead Act, which was the enforcement act of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution that prohibited alcohol. It was later repealed by the 21st Amendment.
She got traumatized when the bat hit his head 10:20🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Chillin' like a villain."
Excellent!!
😄
“The Untouchables” started as a novel that Ness ghost wrote with another person. He definitely intended his team to be known as the untouchables, meaning they were untouchable by corruption.
Classic movie , brilliant casting.
Costner was on such a roll .
Loved Brian De Palma films too.
The train station scene is my favorite scene. It is so intense and suspenseful.
Excellent all around - fantastic cast with expert direction - this made Costner a bankable star. Great choice & watch!
What made this movie so great was the script, written by the great playwright, David Mamet. If you want to see a great movie adaptation of one of his plays, check out “Glengarry, Glenn Ross.”
Llore cuando mataron a sean Connery (Malone) aún se me pinta un lagrimon, buena reacción 😁🇦🇷🖐️
Re one of your last points: when Eliot gives George the St. Jude medal because Malone would "want a cop to have it", he was referring to how (Ness) was never actually a cop--just a Treasury Officer on special/temporary assignment to the Chicago police department (and who was about to go back to his regular responsibilities).
While George was the opposite--a cop who had started his career on special loan to the Treasury Department (and was about to spend the rest of his career as a cop).
They were all law enforcement officers, but Malone and Stone were cops, while Ness and Wallace were from the Treasury Department.
A necessary correction to make. Frank Nitti did not get thrown off a roof by Eliot Ness. The real Nitti committed suicide in 1943. The picture of which was featured in the Godfather newspaper montage scene after Michael kills Sollozzo and McClusky.
It's 1943 actually.
@@StephenLuke Thanks for the heads up. Correction made.
@@jstube36 You're welcome! If I made a historical gangster film, then I would have to look up the people, the events, and make it look accurate as possible.
@@jstube36 Question?
@@StephenLuke Embellishment of real stories is not new in film. The Untouchables seems more like the crusade of some avenging angel like Ness. The part with the horses. made him look like some heroic western hero. And I seriously doubt that the real Ness confronted Capone like the film would have us think.
The Untouchables is more Hollywood than reality. Elliot Ness rarely carried a gun (his holster was usually empty). He was more of an "office" type of law enforcement officer. In fact, Ness only met Capone once and that was during a prison transfer.
This movie received mixed reviews, but there are a lot of fans of the movie. Sean Connery was really good in this movie too (Best Supporting Actor award).
Out of 5☆, I would give it 3.5☆
P.S. Al Capone was eventually transferred to Alcatraz and became really sick. He eventually died of a heart attack or stroke in 1947. I believe he died in FL at his home.
Malone was walking the beat is because he was too honest and wouldn't cooperate with corruption. Al Capone died out of his mind from syphilis.
During the railway scene, Stone shot him in the mouth. I always show it to me media students to review angles and shots and they love it!
ughhh so ugly way to go!
Al Capone died at his mansion in Florida in 1947 due to complications from late-stage syphilis. In short, syphilis rotted his brain, he suffered a stroke, contracted pneumonia and died from a heart attack. If you wanna see a classic gangster movie based on Capone, check out the original Scarface from 1932, starring Paul Muni. That film will probably surprise you with its intensity. And for more great gangster films from the 1930's, check out Little Caesar (1931), The Public Enemy (1931), Taxi! (1932), The Petrified Forest (1936), Each Dawn I Die (1939), and The Roaring Twenties (1939) among others.
Merry Christmas - love your reviews! You are a wonderful couple.
Corruption was so rampant, especially in Chicago, that is why the old experienced Malone character is so unique. That is why they had to recruit a rookie cop. They were the "Untouchables".
they were like Cowboys!
Capone contracted syphilis and died as a result of a stroke while at his home in Florida in 1947
Capone died from an untreated syphilis infection - his mind gone to mush - he was released from Alcatraz to a mental hospital in 1939, near the outbreak of the Second World War. At his death, Capone had the mentality of a child.
One of my favorite movies… don’t forget Ennio Morricone the greatest 🎉
Always like your reactions.
P.S. Don't forget to do Plains, Trains, and Automobiles for Thanksgiving👍
Excellent suggestion.
@@Lakeshore14 Thanks, I've watched over 1k reactions to different movies in the last 3 or 4 years. The only movie reactions I haven't seen are movies I personally have not watched yet or have not seen in decades. One reaction I really want to see is John Wick (have not seen any of them yet, and it's not on any of the streaming platforms I subscribe to). I hear it gets a lot of great reviews. Also, haven't seen One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest in almost 40 years, so need to watch again before I watch any reactions. I need to watch Shawshank Redemption again too before any reactions. Haven't seen since it since it first came out.
Anyways, of all the movies I have seen there are only a handful that I've never seen get any bad or negative reviews, even by the most harsh (and/or weird) reactors of any age or generation.
They are Saving Private Ryan, The Sixth Sense, Silence of the Lambs, Rocky (most female reactors are very, very pleasantly surprised), Plains, Trains, and Automobiles, Star Wars episode IV, Se7en, and Back to the Future.
I have seen one person give The Thing (1982) a weird/bad review. It was by "Just Trust Ash", who is the most vocal and animated reactor I have seen to date. Almost the entire reaction he was silent and completely engaged, which he has never been in any other reaction. However, he did not like how it ended, and is the only reason and reactor who gave a bad review because of it. I messaged him and he actually replied with his reasoning (which makes no sense to me). If you have seen the movie, check out his reaction. If you haven't, it is a must watch. Ironically, he loves almost every movie I do.
P.S. There are movies like E.T., The Shining, The Godfather, and Goodfellas that I was certain would never get a bad review or reaction, but some people just don't connect for one reason or another. IMO, the best movies ever made were from 1972 to 1999 (28 years). If you checked a list of top 50 movies ever made, over 90% were made during those years.
Capone didn’t die in a shootout but he probably wished he had…instead Capone suffered from syphilis while incarcerated in Alcatraz to the point he was certifiably insane eventually released from prison and lived like a feeble minded man in Florida where he died…and during Prohibition you were allowed to drink alcohol…in short Prohibition law was the legal prevention of the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages in the United States from 1920 to 1933 under the terms of the Eighteenth Amendment.
Trebek , Sean Connery is a hell of charisma, RIP dear sean 🤩
Ness and his companions were untouchable because they couldn't be corrupted by the criminals. They wouldn't take bribes or be intimidated by threats.
Capone didn't die in a gun fight. He died at home, after having served his prison time. He died of syphilis. Penicilus was available at that time, but the big bad Al Capone was afraid of needles, so was never vaccinated.
Sean Connery man, I swear they don’t make them like him anymore. Just a bonafide movie legend
The judge switched the juries because Ness told the judge that the judge's name was in the ledger. It was not. This was Ness learning from Sean Connery's character about how far to take things. Ness lied to the judge to get the judge to change the juries.
although, the judges name must have been on some other ledger or he would know Ness was lying.
At the end: Because a ‘cop’ is different to the treasury officer. Like a regular street cop :)
Walking the ‘beat’ is when policemen used to walk an area of the city to be a police presence to uphold the laws. They are called ‘best cops’.
This was filmed in Chicago. I happened to be heading to the main city library and came on the alley behind the building -- it was on Michigan Avenue, it's now The Cultural Center -- and the cars were set up for the scene where Ness pushes Nitti off the "court house" building. I didn't see that being shot but the street was filled with people in costumes and there was flurry of workers in the alley. Fun watching a movie being made.
Capone died from Syphillus in the brain. 1947
Based on a tv series, inspired by real events.
Check out the amazing western with Kevin Costner called Open Range possibly the best Western since the good the bad and the ugly
Capone died in a nursing home of heart attack brought on by chronic syphilis
Its amazing how Capone made $1.3 billion in the 1930s from illegal hootch.
The Chief of Police was so deep in the muck that he let Nitti kill a uniformed police officer to take his place in the elevator with Oscar and Capone's bookkeeper. It's not easy to spot, because they only show the dead cop's body for a moment.
Love them old cars
loved this reaction👍🇨🇦
A treasure officer who elliot ness was is different from a cop who malone & stone were
Such an underrated and well crafted film.
Great reactions. Great Dude. Great Du-Det (nice earnings). VERY great movie.
if marion really wants to see classic tv about rome, watch "i, claudius", a 13-episode miniseries that's the 1976 version of "game of thrones". (in fact, there is at least one cast member that stars in both.)
SIAP, Al Capone died in Miami, FL from tertiary(third stage) syphilis which destroys mental capacities.
ohh my... scary disease if you ask me!
I know you reacted to _The Green Mile (1999)_ about a year ago, but do you recognize Warden Hal Moores' wife Melinda, whom John Coffey healed of a brain tumor? She's award-winning actress Patricia Clarkson, 12 years younger, here playing Eliot Ness' wife Catherine.
16:26: Marion knew something wasn't right
3:46
it was 1930s Chicago almost every cop ,judge, and politician was bought by capone
Ness is a Treasury agent, not a cop
This movie is based on a TV show, that was based on a radio drama, that was based on a book, that was based on actual events. If you want to know the real story, you should check out Oversimplified's video on Prohibition.
Sean Connery got the Oscar - Best Supporting Actor
Movies from Roman times...It's too long to watch and review here, but HBO's Rome: Season 1 is excellent. It's about the rise and fall of Julius Caesar, the end of the Republic phase and beginning of the Emperor phase, and gives an interesting view of different levels of Roman society too. Really, really well done. Season 2 was not nearly as good, but Season 1 was outstanding.
Loved Rome. Both seasons! Yes, please react to HBO's Rome!! (And while I'm here "Lonesome Dove" with Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall)
I think the reason Malone didn't get to a higher rank was precisely because he wasn't corrupt.
Great movie
"Entoosiams" 😂
I laughed when you said "alcohol was considered a drug"...as if that is crazy. Most people today would agree it's crazy....yet, more people are addicted to alcohol than any drug...more road deaths are connected to drunk drivers than any drug. More violence is committed on alcohol than any drug. Just sayin'
And alcohol impairs you WAY more than other more regulated or outright illegal drugs.
Chillin like a Villain 🤘🤘
check out: District 9
Legendary film.
Capone died in prison of a natural cause, and his brain was chewed up by syphilis in any case.
For the record Al Capone wasn't Mafia. At that time in the early 1930s and before, not only you had to be 100% Italian you had to be Sicilian. Capone was of Neopolian decent. Lucky Luciano would later change that and open the American Mafia to all full blooded Italians.
And in real life Al Capone was in his late 20s, no way as old as DeNiro is in this film. And Frank Nitti, the assassin in the white suit, actually took over Capone's Organization.
Technically speaking Federal Agents aren't cops, police officers so St. Jude is from them.
Capone did not die in a gunfight. He served time in prison and was let out because he was mentally debilitated due to syphilis, which he died of in 1948, in his mansion.
The judge's name wasn't on the ledger but he was a corrupt judge who was in Capone's pocket so he could not say "What are you talking about?" He knew it was a strong possibility, so Ness's bluff worked.
Ironically, after prohibition was repealed and alcohol became legal again, Elliott Ness became an alcoholic and died from the effects of alcoholism
You did NOT just skip The Maestro Ennio Morricone’s theme playing as the opening credits rolled, did you?!?
See Costner in
JFK (1991) Kevin Costner,
Gary Oldman, Sissy spacek
and in
OPEN RANGE (2003)
Kevin Costner, Robert Duvall
No way out was a good costner movie too.
@@etpelle72
That was with Hackman, right?
I'd forgotten. With a good twist.
I liked A PERFECT WORLD (1993)
with Clint Eastwood and
THE BODYGUARD (1992) with Whitney Houston. And, of course,
DANCES WITH WOLVES (1990) which he directed. He's been good in a lot of good movies.
Great reaction! Great idea Marian. You should check out the movie Gladiator!
I suggest SPARTACUS (1960) and Gladiator (2000)
$3,000,000 in 1925 is over $51 million today.
Al Capone died of heart attack at home after released from prison.
The only way to beat these bastards is to fight dirty. Frank Nitti actually lived to succeed Capone only to commit suicide several years later while walking along some railroad tracks.
The creator of the subtitles has a fondness for the capital letter P ! 🙄😂
Any Brian DePalma movies are great! He learned direction from Alfred Hitchcock! Notice how many scenes in this movie are single shot one camera, weird camera angles and no dialogue!!
Prohibition. It is often said that it failed because the people of thte US didn't want it. Those who say such are unaware or unwilling to admit, how difficult it was to pass the Constitutional amendment. To pass an amendment takes approval by 2/3 of each house of Congress, and then approval by 3/4 of the state governments, within a prescribed period of time. No easy feat. So, it is clear that the people overwhelmingly wanted it. It was the criminal element and it's supporters who didn't want it. They made life as much of a hell as they could to finally get the politicians to repeal it, by the same process. That hell is what this film is about.
