Nitti: The Enforcer

Every great man needs an enforcer.

Here is the true life story of Frank Nitti, world famous gangster and infamous enforcer for mobster boss Al Capone. Set in the 1920s Chicago and featuring a stellar ensemble cast, "Nitti: The Enforcer" is a fantastically vivid and dramatic portrait of prohibition America. Showcasing historical events such as the Valentine's Day massacre and the assassination of Chicago's Mayor Cermak, this film accurately depicts both Nitti's role in American history and the personal triumphs and downfalls of this notorious and complex man. An Italian immigrant who started from nothing, Nitti rises to the top of the underworld through his brains, ambition and fearlessness. Nitti is the man who organizes American crime and makes Al Capone a feared but revered household name. But the two Mafia-kings are about to face their most grueling adversary yet, a young, whip-smart prosecutor Hugh Kelly (Michael Moriarty) who has been called into town to clean up the mob mess.
