Goodbye & Amen (1977) Tony Musante, Claudia Cardinale

Hyvästi & amen (Goodbye & Amen, 1977)

Damiano Damiani teki merkittävän uran italialaisessa elokuvassa ohjaamalla realistisia ja kriittisiä elokuvia järjestäytyneen rikollisuuden menettelytavoista ja niiden korruptoitavasta vaikutuksesta. GOODBYE & AMEN ulottaa korruption tarkastelun kansainväliseen politiikkaan. Yksinäinen asemies vaarantaa CIA:n suunnitelman tukea vallankaappausta afrikkalaisessa valtiossa: tuleeko terrorin uhka poliittisilta vastustajilta vain mädän järjestelmän sisältä?

Brittijulkaisu ilman suomitekstejä, katsottavissa kaikilla Suomessa myydyillä Blu-ray laitteilla

Takakannen kertomaa:
John Dannahay (Tony Musante, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage), a CIA agent stationed in Rome, is preparing to overthrow an African government. But his plan goes wrong when a corrupt colleague starts shooting people from the roof of a hotel, taking an innocent couple hostage. Director Damiano Damiani (How to Kill a Judge) wields expert tension in this gripping espionage thriller, twisting and turning its tight plot to its sensational finale. Featuring a fantastic supporting cast including Claudia Cardinale (The Day of the Owl), John Steiner (The Case is Closed: Forget It) and Wolfango Soldati (The Heroin Busters), Goodbye & Amen is one of the great 1970s Italian action thrill rides, set to a haunting score by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis (Torso, Keoma).
