- No.

- So ?

So... Here we are.

What do you think about

these judges being killed?

Were you sentenced by Varga?

He was the prosecuting judge

in that trial.

He asked for 30 years.

He said he regretted

there was no death penalty.

Did Judge Sanza

deliver the sentence?

Judge Sanza gave me

a discount... 27 years.

But he wasn't alone.

I know.

Judge Rasto was there too.

And Rasto is still alive.

What do you want from me?

Later they proved

I was innocent.

True.

You were innocent

and spent four years in jail.

I've served 52 years

unjustly.

Spending four in jail

was no big deal.

Jail is a safe place.

- Who's there? What do you want?

- Police.

Leave me alone.

You've made my life miserable.

Enough. Get out of here!

Come here.

Do you remember Judge Varga?

Chief Judge Sanza and the other one Calamo ?

Bastards...

They were all bastards.

And so you killed them.

- I wish I did.

Do you live here?

Have you a gun?

Go and get it.

You get it.

Clear off!

You don't answer me like that. Understand?

What shall we do?

No one's seen him.

He might be sleeping.

Stay here

and keep an eye out for him.

Yes, doctor.

Is Dr Maxia here.

That's me.

Can I help you?

I'm inspector Rogas.

I'd like a word with you.

At your service.

I'll be back shortly.

Please sit down.

Thanks.

This is what I want

to know.

I'm told you're the only friend

of the chemist, Cres.

Friend!

It's hard to use

the term in Cres' case.

Let's say a frequent caller.

- So you see him often?.

- Yes, yes.

Actually, I'm the one

who keeps an eye on him.

I try to get him to mix.

with other people.

Seen him today?

- No.

I don't think Cres

went out at all today.

I knocked on his door

but no one answered.

He ofter pretends

he's not at home.

You mean

it's happened to you too?

Yes, often.

Cres is always

in the house?

Are you sure he couldn't

have gone somewhere else.

As far as I know

the only trips Cres takes

are inside the walls

of his own house.

- See? He's not here.

- So he does go out?

Then, it's not true that he's

not always here?

Strange. Maybe he's left.

I'll go see if he switched

the meter off.

What's all this music?

Cres is crazy about tangos.

He collected thousands

of them, inspector.

Tangos of all kinds,

from lots of places

He's put speakers

all over the house.

This is the wife of Cres.

She used animal welfare

to frame him.

Do you think

Cres was innocent too?

He prepared

the chocolate rice.

He cooked it quite ofter.

Yes, my husband !

Well then

do any doubts still linger?

No. Not unless we think

this poor woman

designed a diabolical scheme

to incriminate her husband.

Even to the extent

of sacrificing a life,

Francesco Rosi

Francesco Rosi (15 November 1922 – 10 January 2015) was an Italian film director. His film The Mattei Affair won the Palme d'Or at the 1972 Cannes Film Festival. Rosi's films, especially those of the 1960s and 1970s, often appeared to have political messages. While the topics for his later films became less politically oriented and more angled toward literature, he continued to direct until 1997, his last film being the Primo Levi book adaptation The Truce. At the 2008 Berlin International Film Festival 13 of his films were screened, in a section reserved for film-makers of outstanding quality and achievement. He received the Honorary Golden Bear for Lifetime Achievement, accompanied by the screening of his 1962 film Salvatore Giuliano. In 2012 the Venice Biennale awarded Rosi the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement. more…
