Gerald Truman's brother wasn't doing anything illegal, he worked for a company with vending machines who were targeted by the Chicago mob for takeover--he got caught in a takeover mob killing.

The Isabella mobsters come to kill Briar in his hotel but manages to escape thanks to the bungling mobster. His older brother Briar Liam Neeson has different ideas, however, and travels to the city to seek old-fashioned vigilante justice. The scene of the women packing sandwiches for the big hunt shows a level of clan community not well understood by us city-folk. She hears about Briar's death from Truman when she asked about him.

When Gerald pulls a knife, he is immediately gunned down by Joey Rosellini , the sadistic nephew of Outfit boss John Isabella. It's hard to believe that the same actor who plays to perfection this tight lipped, lean and mean mountain man, will later be nominated for an Oscar for his heart-rending portrayal of a sophisticated German industrialist.

Great movie and one I will watch over and over. Ben Stiller has a role in this, not a funny one but a serious role and it is neat seeing him act serious, I think he did a good job. Immediately after hearing the word of fighting makes it's way back home to all of the Kin from the ol' holler, a small army of Kin rushes to protect Swayze: the uncle's and cousins, grandparents, nephews, and a whole town full of very angry friends of Swayze's kin load up and swear to serve vengeance.
