Summary
WWII veteran and ex-gangster, Joe Gray is subpoenaed to testify against his uncle and current mob boss, Nick Mancani. Nick must restrain Charley Pignatalli, his violent second-in-command, from killing Joe before his court appearance. Torn from the headlines and shot in a semi-documentary style, it was inspired by the Kefauver investigations of 1950 and 1951
