“I think I’ll have a drink.” Didn’t refer to Ness not being on the job. The reporter said there’s word that they’re going to repeal Prohibition. The whole movie was about the rise of organized crime during Prohibition. Prohibition was about the government of the U.S. declaring that alcohol consumption was illegal. Al Capone and organized crime rose to power selling alcohol. Elliot Ness said he would have a drink if they repealed Prohibition because alcohol would be legal again.

[@meherenowmaybe]

Don't forget, prohibition largely came about due to conservative right-wing type Christian people, especially self-righteous Christian women.

Sean Connery took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor as a cop who is determined to help Eliot Ness to take down Al Capone once and for all.

[@donbergeson6771]

It's an indictment on the education system that you don't know who Capone is and what Chicago was like during prohibition. Other than some names, very few things in this movie were accurate. Frank Nitti was so changed they might as well have used a different name instead of the actual man's name. He actually took over for Capone when he got locked up for tax evasion. Ness got so famous that he ended up becoming mayor of Cleveland. He also became a big alcoholic. One really good thing Capone did was, during the depression, he opened a lot of food kitchens in Chicago to feed the many thousands of people who couldn't afford food. Mainly did it for PR but still. He was one of the most famous prisoners ever in Alcatraz. He died a free man in Florida with his brain so eaten away by syphilis that it looked like Swiss cheese. A major misconception about prohibition is that drinking alcohol was illegal. It wasn't. The manufacturing, distribution and transportation and sale of alcohol was illegal, not the consumption. Same way with Cuban cigars. Only the importation and sale was illegal until the last decade, not the actual smoking.

[@davidwoolbright3675]

He ran for Mayor but was soundly defeated.

[@Sarah_Gravydog316]

why did everyone call him Nitti when his real name was Nitto?

[@GruffyddFO4]

Legendary movie filled with amazing actors. It fictionalizes the actual events, but in service of a great story.

[@williamj.dovejr.8613]

I was an usher at a movie theater when this film was released. The audience was so involved with the film from start to finish. You were watching a Hollywood heavyweight at the top of his game.. DeNiro at his finest. You were also watching a young actor who after so many years got his title shot if you will...and he ran with it. Kevin Costner on his rise to stardom was truly something to watch. Be sure to watch his next films after this: No Way Out with Gene Hackman, and his finest hour: Dances with Wolves. Enjoy, Ladies!

[@jeffdetmer4681]

Ness did not retire. He finished the job and went on to his next assignment. He wasn't a Chicago cop, he was a federal officer. When he said he would have a drink, it wasn't because he would no longer be a cop. It's because they were going to repeal prohibition, and drinking would be legal again. I would love to see the 2 of you watch The Sting. Great movie. Great cast. Oh and BTW, Elliott Ness and Al Capone were real people in history. This all really happened. "Thus endeth the lesson for today". ; ))

[@Abbadonhades]

The stair scene with the baby stroller is a reference to a famous scene from Sergei Eisensteins "Battleship Potemkin." Also, Elliot Ness (Costner) hadn't changed his principles in that final exchange with the reporter. From the beginning he had said that they had to follow the law, now if prohibition was being repealed, then it would no longer be law. And drinking liquor would be completely legal, hence " I think I'll have a drink."

Sean Connery was a coffin polisher and he worked many odd jobs on his way to stardom. He was also a competitor in the Mr. Universe contest before landing his career changing role as James Bond in 1962. He had been a Hollywood heavyweight for over 20 years before he won his best supporting actor for his role in this film. His career had a renaissance following this role and he was even named the sexiest man alive, one of the oldest actors to be named. You were watching two Hollywood heavyweights at the top of their game with two young actors on the rise...Andy Garcia and of course, Kevin Costner.

Al Capone became the template for every gangster film all the way to Scarface in 1983. He was the quintessential gangster people found themselves rooting for and also being afraid of at the same time.

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

They can't teach it otherwise more people would know why the War on Drugs was destined to fail from its inception, same as a total ban on abortion, firearms, and anything else. Organized crime was because of Prohibition. The best way to handle recreational drugs is to decriminalize, regulate, and tax.

Old school mob movie is "The St. Valentine's Day Massacre" . Al Capone was behind that criminal act against a rival "liquor cartel" in Chicago. The movie uses narration to educate the viewers which inspired the script format of "Goodfellas".

The iconic train station shoot out is an homage to the silent film BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN. The film is based on the popular 1959-63 TV series starring Robert Stack (prob. better known later for his role in AIRPLANE). Excellently executed by master filmmaker Brian DePalma at the top of his game with a fantastic cast making Costner a movie star, Connery an Oscar-winner and DeNiro adding another role to his rogue's gallery of villains. It's 100% true that Capone went to prison for tax evasion ; everything else is fictitious (but Ness was indeed a real life fed agent who was in the task force against Capone). I knew you ladies would love this (loved your reactions as always :D ). And Ennio Morricone's epic score and Armani's wardrobe are *chef's kisses*. RE: DePalma - seek out pretty much everything - CARRIE, CASUALTIES OF WAR, BLOW OUT, BODY DOUBLE off the top of my head) and Costner you need to see NO WAY OUT. Charles Martin Smith - Oscar - is best known for George Lucas' AMERICAN GRAFFITI (another must see with a cavalcade of stars-to-be including Ron Howard, Richard Drefyfuss, and Harrison Ford).

[@ghost7524]

The scene where Capone hits the guy with the baseball bat, that actually happened in real life. In real life, Elliot Ness stayed in Chicago for a while after he got Capone. Unfortunately, Elliot Ness didn't have to lovey-dovey sweet marriage in real life as it was portrayed in the movie.

[@vincentsaia6545]

THE UNTOUCHABLES was originally a TV series and in his memoir A POUND OF FLESH producer Art Linson wrote how he took David Mamet, who had just won the Pulitzer Price for his play, GLENGERRY GLEN ROSS, out to dinner and a the precise moment said to Mamet, "Don't you think the write career move for a playwright who just won the Pulitzer would be to take an old TV show and make it into a movie for a sh*t load of money?"

[@vincentsaia6545]

The script originally called for the final shootout on the train but the studio wouldn't pay for a period train car so Brian DePalma hastily wrote the shoot-out in the train station which he based on a famous scene in BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN. When screenwriter David Mamet saw the new scene at the premier he began to squirm in his seat. Producer Art Linson saw him and said, "What are you squirming for? You were bought and paid for."

All under the guise of being American tragic dark comedies and revisionist history in the style of a modern ash-fault neo-noir western.

[@hannahpumpkins4359]

I lived with my grandmother growing up - she raised me. One day I came home from school where we learned about the Chicago Outfit (our teacher said they were brutally violent, etc, especially Capone) and when I mentioned this to my grandmother, she replied, "we do not speak ill of Alphonse Capone in this house - he's a good man, and has been there for our family since the beginning - not to mention all he does to help people in Chicago". My grandmother lived next door to Capone in Cicero, IL. She said he used to walk with her the store, etc and always helped her. She told me, "he said no woman should ever have t walk alone someplace - unless she wants to". She said he was a gentleman, and insisted that he didn't have any involvement in the Valentine's Day Massacre. My Great Uncle was a street enforcer for him, and continued in that line of 'work' until his death in the 1970's (he had a heart attack - he was around 6'6" tall, and at least 500lbs - he would always pick me up, and I remember being so high up I could touch the ceiling. My uncle was involved too, as were nearly all of my friend's families. Anyway, other family members were involved in the Outfit way back when; I remember backyard parties in the summer with all these Italian men with their gorgeous Italian wives who'd give me money and kiss my cheeks a lot! I'm Jewish - and Irish Catholic parents wouldn't let their kids play with me because of being Jewish - but Italian families (nearly all who were connected) made me feel like a part of their families; to this day I make an incredible pasta sauce, and sausage and peppers that even a full-blooded Italian would believe was made by some nonna in Italy....

I hope you ladies found out about the history of Elliot Ness. There was a tv series about him in the 1960’s played by actor Robert Stack the host of Unsolved Mysteries. Unsolved Mysteries did a documentary on this case.

The person this killer killed is what is known in LA as The Black Dahlia. It’s all connected.

Lots of awesome moments in the movie, with probably my favourite part with Stone tossing Ness a pistol, catching the stroller, and being able to shoot the last gangster from a prone position cemented a pure badass moment. In reality, the Untouchables did live up to their name as none died. Plus, the guy in the white suit was Frank Nitti, who wasn't actually killed by Ness; I could be correct, but I think Nitti took over Capone's organisation when the crime lord went to prison for tax evasion, but it collapsed under his lesser leadership and largely due to Prohibition being repealed.

[@otisroseboro5613]

Great Reaction Ladies❤❤

[@willingexile3374]

Great reaction. Not surprised the ladies weren't aware of the circumstances surrounding Prohibition. It was a short, but very impactful period of American history with which modern Americans have no context, since the Mafia is no longer as influential as it was once during the 20th century. Eliot Ness later became somewhat of a social drunk following the repeal of Prohibition and did not benefit from his takedown of Al Capone. His memoirs "The Untouchables," released shortly after his death in 1957, was adapted into one of the earliest successful TV shows, featuring Robert Stack as Eliot Ness. I am of course, much too young to know about the show, but Robert Stack was the voice of Ultra Magnus in the animated Transformers movie. This movie wasn't even Sean Connery's best acting performance of that year. It was as William of Baskerville in the film adaptation of Umberto Eco's "The Name of the Rose" opposite F. Murray Abraham and a young Christian Slater.

Lovely reaction - I think the point about Ness' last line having a drink is that it's ironic, and a bit Absurdist, considering how hard he fought to prevent the liquor trade - re the writing, David Mamet is a Pulizer winner and one of the great American playwrights of the late 20th century, and also a notable filmmaker - his best adapted play onscreen is Glengarry Glen Ross; one of the best films he wrote and directed is House of Games; two of his other best screenplays include The Verdict and Wag the Dog - Untouchables director Brian DePalma basically discovered DeNiro in the 60s, and they made some anarchic comedies together like Greetings and Hi Mom - some of DePalma's most famous films include Scarface, Mission Impossible, and Carrie - he's especially known for his emulation of Alfred Hitchcock, esp in American giallos like Dressed to Kill; IMO his greatest film is the devastating Casualties of War - his Hitchcock vibe is very evident here in the slightly self-conscious way the film doesn't take itself too seriously, but teases the suspense out of every moment, not least that Battleship Potemkin staircase scene - as you can see here, his work w actors is superb - this may be the last of DeNiro's vintage films, where he used to knock the camera over thru sheer power - this was also the film that launched Sean Connery's late career resurgence - I believe there's a scene here that Peter Jackson referenced in LOTR - the scene where Connery fights the other elderly police officer - legendary film critic Pauline Kael singled that scene out for its impact, the sense that these two old ppl shouldn't be fighting like this, which adds to the scene's resonance - I believe Peter Jackson read Kael and used that point of hers in the early fight between Gandalf and Saruman

"The Intouchables" is also a great film. Very different but a heart warming movie!

I agree, 9 out of 10. This is one of my favorite movies.

The baby carriage sequence was actually a last minute change. There was supposed to be a whole sequence on tge train capturing the bookkeeper. The studio made DePalma cancel it for budgetary reasons. As almost a joke, he chose to copy a famous sequence from The Battleship Potemkin instead. He later used some of the planned train sequence in the first Mission Impossible film.

Brian Depalma top 5 directors all time........ ALL TIME!

It hurt when they said at the end, "Hopefully he's set for life." Because in real life, the real Eliot Ness died ostracized, near bankruptcy, and mostly forgotten by history.

You don't get medals for hurting corruption at the top.

Loved your reaction as always. You should check out society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing
