Drama, Crime
TV Mini-Series
Originally telecast February 12, 1981, Gangster Chronicles was the three-hour opener for the subsequent miniseries. This first installment is a sort of Young Tommy Guns, with youthful, charismatic actors playing some of the more odious criminals of the 20th century. Joe Penny portrays Bugsy Siegel, Michael Nouri essays Lucky Luciano, and Brian Benben plays a fictional composite of several mobsters (here named "Michael Lasker"). (allmovie.com)
