1. Robert De Niro as Al Capone – The Untouchables
In The Untouchables, Robert De Niro nails the role of Al Capone. Known also as “Scarface”, the infamous American gangster founded and ran the Chicago Outfit for several years during the Prohibition era. Capone was well-known for violence and he was responsible for the St.Valentine’s Day Massacre in 1929. Capone sent his men into a rival’s hangout disguised as uniformed police officers. They lined the rival mobsters up against the wall and fired Tommy guns at all seven men who were left massacred on the floor.
In November 1931, Capone was sentenced to eleven years in federal prison for evading taxes. When incarcerated at Atlanta U.S Penitentiary aged 33-years-old, he was diagnosed with syphilis and gonorrhoea. He also began to suffer from severe withdrawal symptoms from cocaine, which had destroyed his septum over the years. He left prison in 1939; eight years later he suffered from a fatal cardiac arrest. He died the next day at home surrounded by family.
The Untouchables captures everything the Prohibition era will be remembered for – fast cars, gorgeous women and a lot of guns. Also starring Kevin Costner, Sean Connery and Andy Garcia, it was De Niro’s lead role that brought the entire movie together. His ability to fly into uncontrollable rage and the stare which can kill a man on the spot is exactly how we want our evil mob bosses on screen.
