Director Giuliano Montaldo’s splendidly acted, provocative, sterling 1971 biopic of 1920s Italian-born US immigrant anarchists Nicola Sacco (Riccardo Cucciolla) and Bartolomeo Vanzetti (Gian Maria Volonté), who are tired on trumped-up charges of robbery and murder […]

The Butcher Boy **** (1997, Stephen Rea, Fiona Shaw, Eamonn Owens, Sean McGinley, Ian Hart, Brendan Gleeson, Sinéad O’Connor, Milo O’Shea) – Classic Movie Review 794
