This should liven up the hostage situation.

Verson Jetorix: “Claudio Casinelli and his gang pull a heist that quickly goes wrong and he must avoid the cops and find the dough that two of the gang made off with. Mario Caiano’s crime noir has a dreary palette and unlikable characters. Silvia Dionisio brightens the proceedings.”

Thanks, Brad!

Verson Jetorix: “Claudio Cassinelli does some misguided revengin’ that destroys everyone around him before he finds out the truth. Fernando di Leo’s crime story is not exactly underrated but it is somewhat misunderstood. Its atmosphere of ennui is reflective of the characters and the genre, but also of Di Leo himself no doubt. If it was Peckinpah, they’d call it elegiac.”
