Italian political thriller, fact-based, in the mode of Francesco Rosi, though without his documentary eye. Under Ricky Tognazzi's direction, it's all faces, faces, faces, and talk, talk, talk: the human concern is undoubted. Tognazzi displays a high-minded reluctance to juice up the proceedings -- centered around a determined magistrate, with a private addiction to the grim Allegretto of Beethoven's Seventh, and his loyal team of Sicilian bodyguards -- and the result is dry and savorless. Howsoever high-minded. (1994) — Duncan Shepherd
