Published in 1957, The Untouchables was adapted into a film of the same name in 1987. I recognized the names of the cast - Sean Connery, Robert De Niro, Kevin Costner and Andy Garcia, but the faces on screen were quite unfamiliar to me until I realised how long ago 1987 was and the actors certainly have aged since, and Andy Garcia looks quite different in 1987 and now.
Still that aside, The Untouchables is a compeling film depicting the eventual capture of the notorious Al Capone during the Prohibition in the 1930s. The level of violence was shocking and I wonder what this film would have been rated today.
