This scene did not happen, and in fact this film was so fictionalized it was ridiculous. Virginia Hill was not in Vegas when Siegel was killed, but the film shows her there at the time. And the guy depicted in this scene, Dragna, was given the contract to kill Siegel by the Commission when they thought he was skimming off going over quadruple budget on the Flamingo.
What a movie! One of my favourite movies ever!
Man I wish he would’ve made another Dick Tracy movie, if I’m not mistaken I think he owns the rights the whole series.
