re: #13 Dr Lizardo

That’s a fictionalized account. For example, Frank Nitti wasn’t thrown off the roof of a building. He shot himself - and not until 1943, a decade after the events of The Untouchables took place. The film is entertaining, but it plays fast and loose with the facts, though not as egregiously as Braveheart did.

Oh, I know which is why I talked about the narrative and fantasy. It is outlandiously plotted by a master director. More metaphor but it does get some basic facts right in its on target - Capone goes down, even if the courtroom is completely made up.

How will today be portrayed 50 years on by a master director? That is knida my worry.
