The Untouchables (1959): June 1929.* A body is dumped into Lake Michigan; when it's fished out 3-4 weeks later, on July 10, the Bureau of Missing Persons has a John Doe on its hands. And so, Lt. Agatha Stewart and her sidekick Frank Benson are on the case. At the City Morgue, all the coroner can tell about the decomposed body is the approximate age, 50, and that the deceased might have had a bad heart. Outside, Lt. Stewart runs into Eliot Ness, who came down to do an I.D. on a Joe Fuselli. (not the Joe Fuselli from "The Scarface Mob.") The morgue will keep the body for 10 days. July 20, in Potter's Field, the John Doe is buried in the rain; there are no mourners, only Lt. Stewart and reporter Walter Rimer attend. But then a clue-- a huge wreath is delivered by O'Banion florists; the delivery man doesn't know who ordered it, so Lt. Stewart goes to the flower shop. It had been owned by the notorious gangster Dion O'Banion (1892-1924), until he was rubbed out 5 years ago by Johnny Torrio. Now, the shop is owned by Gerald Feeney, an O'Banion henchman who made peace with the Syndicate, and retains the flower shop as a front. All Lt. Stewart finds out is that a woman paid $175 cash for the wreath; she confiscates the money, and tries to find out from which bank a $175 withdrawal was made on July 19. Meanwhile, Ness and Lee Hobson get a break in the case they're working on: a booze shipment worth over $1-million being smuggled in from Canada. They get a tip from Mike Fuselli, brother of bullet-riddled Joe Fuselli; this leads Ness and his men to the Pink Lion, a speakeasy on the Southside. The only mobster big enough to handle this million dollar deal is Jake Portuguese. Ness gets a setback when a speeding car dumps the body of Mike Fuselli onto the sidewalk. August. Lt. Stewart tracks down Claire Simmons, who made the $175 withdrawal. But all Lt. Stewart finds out is the name of Claire's boxer boyfriend, Sonny Dale. Later, Claire phones Rudy Portuguese, Jake's younger brother, and tells him a cop was snooping around. Lt. Stewart and Officer Harrison arrest Sonny. While he's in jail, Lt. Stewart gives him the bad news that Claire's been killed by a hit-and-run car; Sonny says Jake Portuguese did it. October 31, the big booze convoy rolls into Chicago; it's delivered by Arnie Retzik from Canada. Eliot Ness and his men, along with Lt. Stewart, pay a visit to Jake Portuguese's mansion, and find it empty. They find a couple of clues: prescription nitroglycerine pills (taken by people with heart problems), and Jake's car in the garage has a broken right headlight. Ness says if the glass matches, they've got Jake on a hit-and-run for Claire's death. Arnie Retzik meets with Rudy, the collection man for his brother Jake. But Rudy tells him Jake is dead; Rudy wants to get half of the million dollar payment. When Retzig wants to pay him off with only a couple of Gs, Rudy fills him full of lead. Meanwhile, Lt. Stewart finally has proof, through dental records, that her John Doe is Jake Portuguese. Ness and his men put a 24-hour-a-day tail on Rudy; one night Lee Hobson follows Rudy to a big warehouse at 6th & Beacon, and phones Ness. Inside the warehouse Rudy-- who has learned his lesson and goes back to the old story that brother Jake is alive and he's just his collection man-- picks up the $1-million payment. The 4 top gangster bosses inspect the huge booze shipment. Just then, Ness and his men crash through the warehouse doors with their car. There's a big shootout. When Rudy makes a run for it, Ness guns him down. The 4 bigshots are captured alive, but Rudy's a goner-- before he dies, he tells Ness that he didn't kill Jake, he had a heart attack; but he did run down Claire with Jake's car. And so, later, the body of John Doe is given a proper funeral; since Jake Portuguese was a top gangster, all the others send him flowers-- from O'Banion florists. There was only one problem: nobody was left to mourn.(synopsis by: kdh) --------------------------------- *[note: for some reason, they never mention the year. But they do say the flower shop "had been owned by the notorious gangster Dion O'Banion until he was rubbed out 5 years ago by Johnny Torrio." Since O'Banion was rubbed out in 1924, and that was 5 years ago, that makes this 1929.]
