Under the visionary direction of Brian De Palma and with an adapted screenplay by David Mamet, The Untouchables is a must-see masterpiece - a glorious, fierce, larger-than-life depiction of good versus evil on the streets of Prohibition-era Chicago, with unforgettable performances by Robert De Niro as mob warlord Al Capone and Kevin Costner as law enforcer Eliot Ness. The big-screen blockbuster hit earned Sean Connery an Oscar for his portrayal of veteran officer Jimmy Malone, and the excellent supporting cast includes Patricia Clarkson, Andy Garcia and Charles Martin Smith.
