Hello again. One scene from a movie, which I believe is a mafia movie, came to my mind now. The only thing I can remember so far, is that many men are gathered around a table, and the "Boss" have a speach and at one point he kills/uses a baseball bat at someones head which are seated at the table. To make a point of some sort. The reason I remember this is that a similar scene was used in The Simpsons where Mr. Burns try to kill a man sitting around a table with a baseball bat, but he coulnd't do it since he's so weak.

Does anyone know what movie this is?

While I never seen it... a quick google search tells me it is The Untouchables.

Perhaps the most famous scene in The Untouchables movie is the De Niro/Capone baseball bat scene. Capone lectures his tuxedo-clad associates about the importance of teamwork as they are enjoying a fine meal and cigars in an elegant setting. He circles the table comparing their business to a baseball team, before savagely bashing the skull of one of the henchmen who allowed a valuable stash of bootleg booze to be impounded by Ness and company.


Does that sound right to you?

I knew I know that scene. 
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

One of De Palma's best works, and also an Oscar winner for Sean Connery. IMHO it's a must see!
