Al Capone

Chicago in the 1920s: Despite Prohibition, the town is drunken, promiscuous, and violent. Anything can be bought for enough cash: booze, women — even public officials. For mobster Al Capone, nicknamed "Scarface" from wounds got in a bar brawl, it's a great time to be alive. He is America's best-known gangster and perhaps the single greatest symbol of the collapse of law and order in the United States during the Prohibition era. The FBI branded the bootlegging kingpin America's "Public Enemy #1. For agents Elliot Ness and Frank Wilson, taking down Capone is the biggest prize there is, and the two become determined to capture him any way they can.
