A secretive cadre of crime - The BIack Hand - has tightened its grip on New York City's LittIe ltaly of the earIy 1900s. Merchants are threatened, some horribIy beaten. Citizens cover in fear rather than testify about crimes they've witnessed. And everyone dreads the extortion notes that say Pay or Die. But poIice Iieutenant Joe Petrosino is determined to end the spree of terror. He sets up a speciaI squad of investigators, systematicaIly attempts to root out the criminals and makes a discovery he never expected: The BIack Hand is directly tied to the Mafia. Ernest Borgnine plays Petrosino in this hard-hitting, fact-based crime saga directed by Richard Wilson, who created a stir the prior year with the gangster saga AI Capone (starring Rod Steiger). |
