Synopsis
Capone (1975) is a crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Ben Gazzara plays Chicago's most notorious Prohibition-era gangster, with John Cassavetes as his mentor Johnny Torrio and a young Sylvester Stallone, just months ahead of Rocky, working the margins of the cast. Steve Carver directed it for Roger Corman's outfit.
A New York street kid catches Torrio's eye and follows him to Illinois, where the older man teaches him to wear a sharp suit and behave so nobody clocks the thug underneath. From there Gazzara carries Capone up the ladder — rigged elections, turf wars, rivals quietly removed — until the cautious boss refuses to crush the competition and the protégé decides the chair should be his. It's a lean, low-budget seventies rap sheet of a movie, none of The Godfather's polish, but Gazzara is magnetic and Stallone is a curiosity as henchman Frank Nitti.
