Description

Read the story behind the beloved film - now available in Essential Modern Classics. In Prohibition-era New York City, Fat Sam runs one of the most popular speakeasies in town - but his rival Dandy Dan is trying to shut him down. It's up to the baby-faced Bugsy Malone to save the day... Packed with thrills and spills (and more than a few custard pies and splurge), this is a mobster story with a twist - the stars are kids!
