SUMMARY:SUNDAYS AT THE U WITH MOVIES: "THE UNTOUCHABLES" (1987)
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 1 p.m. Sunday\, October 4th for a screening of "Th
 e Untouchables\," director Brian De Palma’s gripping Prohibition-era cr
 ime drama about a team of incorruptible lawmen waging an all-out war agai
 nst Chicago’s most infamous mob boss.\n\n \n\nAfter building an empire 
 with bootleg alcohol\, legendary crime boss Al Capone (Robert De Niro) ru
 les Chicago with an iron fist. Though Prohibition agent Eliot Ness (Kevin
  Costner) attempts to take Capone down\, even his best efforts fail due t
 o widespread corruption within the Windy City's police force. Recruiting 
 an elite group of lawmen who won't be swayed by bribes or fear\, includin
 g Irish-American cop Jimmy Malone (Sean Connery)\, Ness renews his determ
 ination to bring Capone to justice.\n\n \n\nAn enduring classic\, "The Un
 touchables" captures the gritty\, high-stakes atmosphere of 1930s Chicago

  masterwork of stylish tension\, unforgettable dialogue\, and legendary c
 inematic set pieces\, anchored by an iconic\, Oscar-winning performance b

 ner. It’s an intriguing character confrontation\, loaded with ironies\,
  both personal and social: on one side\, the flamboyantly powerful gangst
 er whose booze smuggling made him a popular hero amid a Prohibition-weary
  public\; on the other side\, a faceless outsider whose straitlaced\, ins
 istent dedication threatened to overturn the town’s well-oiled troughs.
 \n\n \n\nAs Eliot Ness\, Kevin Costner plays it tight to the vest. Those 
 who recall Robert Stack’s superbly confident portrayal and hail-hearty 
 voice in the TV series may be initially turned off by this interpretation
 . But to Costner’s considerable credit\, he defers to the staid traits 
 of character throughout\; ultimately\, it is these small\, relentlessly S
 unday School qualities that make his ultimate victory against the seeming
 ly invincible Capone be
