Mad Dog Coll Summary
Director: Burt Balaban
Genres: Drama, Crime
Rating:
This gangland crime story about the life and death of mobster Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll (John_Chandler) is most notable for the array of relatively unknown actors in bit parts who later became famous. Otherwise, there is a lot of bloodshed, surface characterization, and a great deal of fiction in the violent tale. Coll is first shown suffering extreme abuse from his father, and then he segues into the development of a neighborhood gang at the age of seventeen. From there, he gets on the wrong side of gangster Dutch Schultz which ultimately is a big mistake. Director Burt_Balaban depicts Coll as increasingly insane, before his last killing leads to his violent death. Among those "new" faces are Telly_Savalas as Lt. Dawson, Jerry_Orbach as Joe, Coll's Judas, Gene_Hackman in his first screen role as a cop, and Vincent_Gardenia as Dutch Schultz. Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
