Big Louis Costillo, last of the old-style gang leaders is slain, and his former bodyguard Tony Camonte is taken into custody. Since Costillo's body has never been found, the police have to release him, though they strongly suspect Johnny Lovo paid Tony to remove Big Louis. Tony begins taking over the rackets in town with violent enforcement, and he becomes a threat to Johnny and the other bosses unless they work for Tony. Meanwhile, Tony's sister wants to be more independent, but finds it difficult to escape from her brother's overprotective grasp. The dissatisfaction of the other bosses and the relentless pursuit of the police push Tony towards a major confrontation. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

The film features absolutely fantastic shootouts, but overall, it's the shots that make the film a masterpiece mainly from a craftsmanship perspective that impresses. The protagonist is similarly demonic and stubborn as Al Pacino's characters. Yes, this is indeed the source material for the legendary De Palma film, and it must be said that due to the Jazz Age, it has its own charm and urgency. The contrast between gunfights and the glamorous club life works, just as the scarred face contrasts with the beautiful woman. By the way, it's quite pleasant to see Boris Karloff in his normal appearance, which is also easily memorable.
