In The Untouchables, Eliot Ness, played by Kevin Costner, receives an envelope on his desk, which is believed to be a bribe. Although the amount is never disclosed in the film, in reality, notorious gangster Al Capone offered Ness a whopping $2,000 every week to turn a blind eye to his illegal activities during the prohibition era. In today's money, that amount would be over $30,000 per week. Ness, known for his integrity, refused the bribe, but he struggled financially in his later years and died nearly penniless at the age of 54. This fact adds an extra layer of depth to the character and shows the real-life impact of his unwavering moral code. #shorts #theuntouchables #didyouknow #moviefacts #moviedetails #robertdeniro
