In the profusion of European-produced Charles Bronson vehicles, this one, from Sergio Sollima, about a Mafia hit man, merits special attention. As usual, Bronson's wife, Jill Ireland, is on hand; but not as usual, her role here is more than token. It is primarily her presence that invests these conventional gangster machinations -- secret alliances, power plays, envy, and revenge -- with connotations of sexual success and humiliation. The choice of locations, in and around New Orleans, in this exceptionally agile and energetic movie, is inspired, always. With Telly Savalas. (1973) — Duncan Shepherd
