A police inspector comes into contact with people of all types and dispositions during a grueling murder investigation.
Spend your Sunday afternoon with the Toronto Film Society and uncover a twisty Italian crime classic—Un Maledetto Imbroglio (The Facts of Murder) (1959)!
Directed by and starring the legendary Pietro Germi, this sharp blend of noir, satire, and social commentary investigates a murder in postwar Rome, peeling back the layers of a seemingly simple case. With a stellar cast (including a young Claudia Cardinale), richly textured cinematography, and sly humour beneath the suspense, this is Italian cinema at its most compelling. In Italian with English subtitles. -TORONTO FILM SOCIETY
