Machine-Gun Kelly

The infamous bank robber Machine-Gun Kelly, always accompanied by his trusty Thompson machine gun, is driven by his alluring moll. The story begins with a haunting jazz score and a murder shrouded in shadows. Kelly's irrational fear of death and death-related symbols is a recurring theme, culminating in a disastrous bank heist where the sight of a coffin leaves him paralyzed, resulting in the loss of his lieutenant's arm. The gang's desperate act of kidnapping a young girl and her nurse, demanding a ransom, marks a turning point in their criminal enterprise.
