How many times has Frank " The Enforcer " Nitti appeared as a character in movies?
I know of two at least . A wildly inaccurate portrayal in " The Untouchables ( Ice Cream Suit indeed! ) and a more plausible one in " Road to Perdition"
Obviously Al Capone must have been the most portrayed Gangster in films. Was Frank Nitti second or would that be Lucky Luciano?
