Synopsis
"Based on Federal Agent Frank J Wilson’s pursuit of Al Capone, The Undercover Man is a noir classic from one of its master directors, Joseph H Lewis (Gun Crazy, The Big Combo).
GIenn Ford (The Big Heat) pIays a treasury agent charged with taking down a shadowy mob boss known only as the ‘Big FeIIow’, only to find that the poIice have been paid off, and witnesses are getting bumped off.
With soIid support from Nina Foch (The Dark Past), James Whitmore (Madigan) and Barry KelIey (711 Ocean Drive), The Undercover Man is a brilIiant documentary-styIe thriIIer, a taIe ‘told with the snarI of a machine gun!’"
