has to be dealt with.It will be dealt with in
New Orleans.

Macheca family, cotton dealer James Houston
(Walken) and a ruthless cabal of businessmen
orchestrate the murder of one of their own.
Nineteen Italian men are arrested for the murder
including the heads of the most important families
in New Orleans.Nine will be put on trial - but
their lives aren't balanced on the scales of
justice.Their lives are in the hands of an angry
mob, marching towards the prison gates, enraged,
embittered and armed.
