English Summary:

Bugsy Malone is a 1976 musical, gangster, and comedy film, written and directed by Alan Parker. The film was Parker's feature film directorial debut. A co-production of United States and United Kingdom, it features only child actors, with Jodie Foster, Scott Baio, John Cassisi and Martin Lev in pivotal roles. The film tells the story of the rise of "Bugsy Malone" and the battle for power between "Fat Sam" and "Dandy Dan".

A mobster named Roxy Robinson is "splurged" by members of a gang, using rapid-fire cream-shooting "splurge guns". Once splurged, a kid is "all washed up... finished". Speakeasy boss Fat Sam introduces himself and Bugsy Malone, a boxing promoter with no money ("Bugsy Malone").

At Fat Sam's speakeasy, there is much dancing and singing ("Fat Sam's Grand Slam"). Fat Sam is worried that his rival Dandy Dan will try to take control of the speakeasy. Blousey Brown, an aspiring singer, has come for an audition, but Sam is too distracted to see her. Bugsy meets Blousey when he trips over her luggage. He is smitten and flirts with her. Fat Sam's is raided by Dandy Dan's men, who shoot up the place. Dandy Dan's men continue to attack Fat Sam's empire, eventually taking away rackets and splurging members of Fat Sam's gang. Fat Sam sends all his available men to see if they can track down the guns. They are trapped at a laundry and all are splurged by Dandy Dan's gang.

 

Hungarian Summary:

New York, 1929. Bugsy Malone, a szimpatikus helyi vagány csavaros észjárásával mindig jól megélt abból, hogy a város két maffiafőnökét Kövér Samet és Dandy Dant egymás ellen kijátsza és végül ő nyúlja le a zsíros megbízatásokat. Ám számításába ezúttal hiba csúszik, ugyanis szerelmes lesz és innentől kezdve a józan ész odavész. Pechjére épp e kritikus időszak alatt tör ki a város történetének legnagyobb gengszterháborúja, melyben neki is ki kell vennie a részét. Vajon sikerül-e neki szívszerelmével Hollywoodba szöknie és túlélnie azt a tűzpárbajt, melyben egy egész mulató válik áldozatává a hatalmas tejszínhab-lövöldözésnek?
