What a lousy movie that was. Just like anything Costner is involved with.

The real Frank Nitti survived Capone, I believe the movie had him killed personally by Elliot Ness.

History, Hollywood uses it like a rented mule. And they don't get as good a story as they otherwise might.

This has nothing to do with the movie.

Actually I think the first few episodes of The Untouchables had Nitti getting killed and other “happy endings” I guessed that the series was getting popular so they rewrote to include the gangsters on an ongoing basis
