Machine-Gun Kelly is a 1958 film noir directed by Roger Corman that chronicles the criminal activities of the real-life gangster George "Machine Gun" Kelly. Despite its small budget, the film received positive critical reviews.
Charles Bronson's lead role in Machine-Gun Kelly was his first in a feature film. Corman called the film "a major turning point in my career," because it was the first for which he had received serious critical attention.
American International Pictures released the film as a double feature with The Bonnie Parker Story.
