The penalty

One of the first things I noted for this film, this Italian gangster story, is that the main music score looks very like the GODFATHER's one. After all, I am not so surprised that the Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece inspired so many features. So that said, sorry, I watched a film without subtitles nor English language. So I will do my best to talk about it. You have much nude and sex here, and of course violence and brutal action sequences, as you have in so many Italian crime films, especially in the seventies. Antonio Margheriti wrote this movie. This is a rather good film which takes place in England, France, Italy and is about mafia and gangsters, bosses and gun men, beautiful women and hired killers, hookers and blackmailed VIPs having "fun" with those same call girls, a film about scandals and executions. See, no surprise, but well done.
