St. Valentine's Day Massacre (1967)

St Valentine's Day Massacre (1967) Roger Corman's low-budget retelling of Al Capone, Bugsy Moran and that day in Chicago in 1929. Despite the documentary style narrative this is a entertaining, completely Hollywood retelling of the actual events. Everyone over acts shamelessly starting with Jason Robards as Al Capone. Machine guns blast away, the cars look authentic, and everyone is dressed impeccably. Its hard to think of anyone less Italian than Jason Robards but he makes it work. Rating ***
