Episode 266 – Wild in the Streets – Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion (1970)


Listen Later

In a jam-packed episode of WILD IN THE STREETS we're getting classy with Elio Petri's Cannes jury-prize winning darkly humorous satirical drama INVESTIGATION OF A CITIZEN ABOVE SUSPICION with a dynamite lead performance from Gian Maria Volonté as the "Il Dottore", a police inspector who murders a woman just to prove that he is - as the title suggests - above suspicion. We pair this with a brief conversation about the late Gene Hackman and - uh oh - more talk about politics and if it's possible to make a truly radical political film while under the thumb of a studio. Listen and learn!

The post Episode 266 – Wild in the Streets – Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion (1970) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.
