Hoodlum Empire 72 years old

"Nicky -- you think your bigger than the whole world."

Hoodlum Empire

It's a deadly play for power when a Mafia chieftain's top gun goes straight and threatens to testify against the big boss and his cruel, nationwide network of crime. The picture, which was shot in a semi-documentary style, was inspired by the Kefauver investigations of 1950-51.
