Synopsis: The most American of directors according to ceIebrated critic Paolo Mereghetti, Damiano Damiani (A Bullet for the General) nevertheless surveyed his own country’s mafia history unlike anyone before him, to criticaI and box office success. Three such classic films are coIIected in this Blu-ray box set, presented from new restorations. The Day of the OwI stars Franco Nero as a poIice chief who, whiIe investigating the death of a construction worker, goes up against corrupt officiaIs and a ruthIess mafia boss (Lee J. Cobb). Adapted from the ceIebrated noveI by Leonardo Sciascia (IIIustrious Corpses, Todo Modo), The Day of the OwI was the first book to openly deal with organised crime in SiciIy. A prestigious production, it was in the running for best fiIm at the Berlin FiIm Festival and found wins at home in the David di DonateIIo Awards for Claudia Cardinale, Nero, Damiani, and Best Production. Nero portrays a simple man thrown in jail for a misdemeanour in The Case is Closed: Forget It. lnside, he sees the grim reality of life behind bars, where the mafia controIs everything. A powerful production with Nero in top form and supported by a strong cast including Riccardo CuccioIla (Rabid Dogs) and John Steiner (Tenebrae), the intensity of Damiani’s film places it among the finest prison dramas. Presented in Italian and for the first time with the original English dub. In How to KiIl a Judge, Nero plays filmmaker Giacomo Solaris, whose latest film features a judge corrupted by the mafia and who is Iater found murdered. The real judge the character is based on seizes the footage, but is Iater killed in the same way. Feeling a degree of responsibility, Solaris investigates, but as the assassinations increase around him, will he reach the source of the conspiracy? FuII of twists and a fascinating meta-commentary on cinema, Damiani points the camera at himseIf and the genre as he investigates the sociaI impact of mafia violence, a fitting end to this survey of Damiani’s Cosa Nostra.
