      Rico: The Commissioner! What a surprise! Our house is yours!

      Vice-Commissioner Belli: [walks through Cafiero's house, interrupting, upsetting Rico] You've got shit in your face.

    • Alternate versions
      Both versions released in America on video are missing the ending credits and the final shot of Belli stading by the ocean. Instead, it merely cuts to black.

    Excellent plot, with superb acting, engaging, and unpredictable.
    One of Castellari's finest works. The acting is superb. Excellent usage of lighting and settings. Unpredictable turn of events and good images. There is almost nothing wrong with this film for people who are into crime dramas.
