28 february 2026 ore 20:00

(USA 1953) directed by Fritz Lang, starring Glenn Ford, Gloria Grahame and Lee Marvin, b/w, duration: 89 min., DCP, original version with Italian subtitles

Investigating a corrupt colleague’s death, Sergeant Bannion does not give up even after the Mafia kills his wife. Marking one of the peaks of Lang’s American career, this starkly aggressive noir is not afraid to shine the spotlight on the darkest impulses of the human soul and their tragically universal nature.
