SOCIETY Billy Bathgate is the story of a typical Brooklyn kid

in 1935 New York. Billy becomes involved with the mob and works for them during the summer while they await trail. This was a movie I had wanted to see since the first previews.

THE DIRECTOR OF gangster movie. I am sure we all remember how rainy
