Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaActor, later producer/executive, Robert Evans turned down the part of Reles, because it was "not the lead role" and Peter Falk was cast instead, becoming Falk's first Oscar nominated performance.
- Goofs(at around 48 mins) During the "take" speech, Reles throws a liquor glass at the door behind him. The glass leaves a nick and the door opens a few inches. In the next shot, the door is nearly closed and there is no nick. In the next shot, it's open wider again and the nick is visible.
- Quotes
Abe "Kid Twist" Reles: I'm gonna tell you something about women. I never met one that didn't need a rap in the head, and often.

Featured review
Falk as Abe Reles
I remember watching this movie on TV with my father in the mid-60s when I was about 10 years old.
When Peter Falk was on the screen, my father said that when he was about my age (in the early 1930s), he used to set pins in a bowling alley in Brooklyn, and the real Abe Reles bowled there nearly every day.
I recall what a mad dog that Falk portrayed and how it chilled me that my dad set pins for him.
I will be on the lookout for this movie again, so I can piece it all back together again.
