The Untouchables, Why It’s Great, and De Palma Delight

It’s the wonderfully straightforward The Untouchables (1987). Directed by Brian De Palma and starring Costner, Connery and De Niro, this crime flick is still tip top - how could anyone forget they forgot it? Why is it not chatted about more? Is it because it’s not ‘cool’?

Joe and Adam ponder why the film works so well, digging into Ennio Morricone’s score and David Mamet’s script. Meanwhile, Peter Bradshaw calls in to chat to Brian.
