I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Blistering performances.
This is an Italian classical movie about criminal organization. The plague of criminal organization make suffering and quiet disappoint so this movie talk about the plague without rhetoric approach, showing the horrible true life without any comments or dreaming improbable way of escape. In Italy criminal organization inspires a tons of movies. This is my favorite movie about the plague of criminal organization.
Agiostini Belli stars as Mariuccia, the widow of a a gangster shot down in the prime of his gun-for-hire life, in this so-so poliziotteschi written and directed by Vittorio Schiraldi. She vows revenge on the responsible parties and gets the enthusiastic assistance of her father-in-law, clan godfather Don Angelino (Arthur Kennedy). Rival Gaspare Ardizzone (John Saxon) shouts a lot, and trouble rapidly escalates from fist fights to all out war. Meanwhile, second son Luca (Spiro Focas) disappoints dear old dad by displaying no interest in continuing the family business, but comes to a sticky end on the mean streets of New York City. There's absolutely nothing original about this film (released in English as I Kiss the Hand), but Kennedy and Saxon do their best. There's a decent letterboxed copy with Japanese subtitles out there if you're interested.
