Anachronisms: Several times throughout the movie, the filmmakers apparently forgot that the setting of the drama was the 1930's (and early 1940's). From haircuts and clothing styles to the 1950's era hoodlums that Simon Oakland's character tangles with Rose's place, there are countless mistakes which reveal when the film was shot (vs. when the drama was supposed to take place). moreQuotes:
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. moreSoundtrack:

one of the better gangster movies. peter falk is excellent as abe reles and a solid performance from vincent gardenia as his lawyer. "Murder Inc. gives a real account of the back stabbing that accompanies the underworld.
