The Italian Connection (1972)

Directed by Fernando Di Leo
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Blu-ray, DVD, Raro Video)

Two American hit men are hired to kill a pimp in Milan. Mario Adorf is the pimp, and he is not going to give up easily. Framed for stealing heroin from New York mobsters, he proves to be both elusive and intelligent, driven by fear but also a sense of bewilderment that every gangster in Milan wants him dead. Includes one very good chase scene, but marred by repellent violence unnecessary to the plot.
