It's all deception
18 December 2013
Dying junkie Herman Rudin with a couple Untouchable bullets in him says that he got his fix at a certain nightclub where Patricia Neal is the Texas Guinan like host. She looks innocent enough but that's all deception.

Her real problem isn't Eliot Ness and The Untouchables. It is rather an attempt by the famous founder of Brooklyn's Murder Incorporated Louis 'Lepke' Burkhalter to take over her club and the rackets that are run from it.

Patricia Neal is fine as a woman losing control to alcohol among other things. Now that it's legal again she's having a great old time. She's not clever enough to evade Burkhalter's trigger man Vic Morrow who before he got the Combat series played all kinds of hoods and punks starting from The Blackboard Jungle.

Not one of the better shows, but Neal and Morrow are outstanding.
