"This is our intolerable dilemma: that failure is a kind of death and success is evil and dangerous, is-- ultimately-- impossible. The effect of the gangster film is to embody this dilemma in the person of the gangster and resolve it by his death. The dilemma is resolved because it is his death, not ours. We are safe; for the moment, we can acquiesce in our failure, we can choose to fail."
--Robert Warshow in "The Gangster As Tragic Hero"
