A documentary about Anthony Accardo, the Carlo Gambino of Chicago, had the single most illustrious and successful career in organized crime. It lasted seventy bloody years and encompassed the Capone/Prohibition era, the jukebox/policy growth period, the gambling empire days of Havana and Vegas, the mob’s attempted assassination of Castro and successful murder of Kennedy, the drug days, and the last gasps of Outfit stars Paul Ricca and Sam Giancana.
