| | The UntouchablesSynopsis: Chicago. The Prohibition years. Notorious gangster Al Capone (Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner De Niro, Hide And Seek, The Bridge Of San Luis Rey) rules the roost. Into this scenario steps an honest FBI officer Eliot Ness (Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner Costner, The Upside Of Anger, Open Range). His mission: to destroy Capone. He is helped in his task by Jim Malone (Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner Connery, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Finding Forrester) , an embittered, worldly-wise cop. One of the most energetic and entertaining films of all time, The Untouchables has a crackerjack creative team behind it. Director Brian De Palma brings his brilliant touch to the screenplay by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Mamet, all set to the lush, imaginative score by maestro Ennio Morricone. While Costner and De Niro are excellent in their roles, it is Connery who carries the film on his shoulders in a performance that won him both the 1988 Academy Award and Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor. Don't miss the nerve-wracking "Odessa Steps" sequence inspired by the classic "Potemkin." Casts: Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Robert De Niro, Andy Garcia, Charles Martin Smith Duration : 131 minutes
