Presale start GLI AMICI DI NICK HEZARD (CP 18) + L´IMMORALITA (CP 19)

Presale start of the next two films. 

First, there is GLI AMICI DI NICK HEZARD aka THE STING aka DER STACHEL, a wonderful gangster film contribution by FERNANDO DI LEO. Although in the international as well as German titling The Sting was the inspiration NICK HEZARD has also a slight comedic touch, but on the other hand it is merciless and grim, as wonderfully Italian as you appreciate. Di Leo directed superbly and is supported with a dream cast – Luc Merenda, Lee J Cobb, William Berger, Gabriele Ferzetti, Luciana Paluzzi, Dagmar Lassander, Fred Williams. 

On the other hand, we have a truly unique film that could only have been made at that time. But L’IMMORALITA by Massimo Pirri is definitely not a sexploitation machination as one might think but a very crude social portrait with few positive characters – a downright angry film.

A wonderful cast with Lisa Gastoni, Mel Ferrer and Howard Ross ennobled with a Morricone score. 

Release date is February 24th 2023.
