Synopsis

Vicious Allie and laid-back Johnny G. are rival New York City gangsters who have known each other since childhood. After the mob boss Lou Caddy gets busted by the authorities for tax evasion, Allie and Johnny G. find themselves caught up in a fierce battle deciding who will reign over the territory.

Our take

The mid-1950s: Old Hollywood was starting to stagger, the New Wave hadn’t arrived yet, and low-budget films were leaking through the cracks. As quick and dirty as a switchblade, Johnny Gunman is a long-hidden noir and a scintillating time capsule of New York street life, seen here in gorgeous HD!
