Wonderful black and white reality movie on the real estate racket in Naples in the 1960s, when investigative journalism was still possible in Italy (now it is way too risky). Rod Steiger gives one of his best performances.

Por fin una brillante película de crítica social que no tiene desenlace feliz ni martirio final. Esta película debería ser obligatoria para todos los estudiantes de leyes, aspirantes a políticos o simplemente para quienes desean ser educados en como se manejan los asuntos de estado en nuestro tiempo y en todo lugar.

Francesco Rosi made some of Italy's best political realist films of the 60's, and this one, about a ruthless land developer using his political position to further his business, and avoid criminal charges, is especially wordy and penetrating. The black and white photography is stunning.

Given that this is a municipal politics procedural with a clear left agenda, I wasn't expecting such a well-paced and compelling piece of Italian neorealism. By moving away from the psychology and sentiments of the counselors in favour of looking at them as these types, you get the sense of this bizarre political machine all made of these huge fat balding men (centering on Rod Steiger's character).

One of cinema's most complex looks at how democracy is corrupted by a system that doesn't work.
