Milano Calibro 9 (1971)
Director: Fernando Di Leo
Movie review
From Time Out London
Hapless Moschin is just out of jail when loony gangster Adorf (a mustachioed meld of Alfred Molina at his most villainous and Cheech from ‘The Godfather’) sets upon him for the $300,000 he allegedly pilfered from his clan. Needless to say, the heavy’s resolve is brutally relentless. Onward from its overture of face-slicing, floozy-slapping and dynamite-rigging, the (English-on-English-dubbed) film’s influence on fan Tarantino is (often regrettably) apparent.Author: JWin
