The Untouchables is a 1987 American crime film directed by Brian De Palma, produced by Art Linson and written by David Mamet. It stars Kevin Costner, Charles Martin Smith, Andy García, Robert De Niro and Sean Connery. Set in 1930 Chicago, the film follows Eliot Ness (Costner) as he forms the Untouchables team to bring Al Capone (De Niro) to justice during Prohibition. It is the fourth film on which De Niro and De Palma collaborated, after Greetings (1968, De Niro's first lead in a feature role), The Wedding Party (1969) and Hi, Mom! (1970).
