How sad is this?
Fatma Suarez
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Isbel
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Justina
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

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.
