Confessions of a Police Captain Blu-ray 1971 Radiance Franco Nero Damiano Damiani

A sleek, slow-burn mafia thriller that delivers powerhouse performances from Franco Nero and Martin Balsam!

Introducing Radiance Film's Limited Edition Blu-ray for 1971's Confessions of a Police Captain (aka Confessions of a Police Commissioner to the District Attorney). Neat conceptions of justice, corruption and madness shatter in this hard-hitting investigative thriller from Damiano Damiani (The Day of the Owl, How to Kill a Judge). Balsam and Nero’s face-off is complemented by a striking supporting cast and an innovative jazz, pop, and electric guitar score by Riz Ortolani (Cannibal Holocaust).

In Palermo, Sicily, seasoned police captain Bonavia (Martin Balsam, 12 Angry Men) orders the release of a criminally insane inmate – then watches him set out to assassinate a local construction magnate. When the plan backfires, Bonavia faces the scrutiny of young and idealistic district attorney Traini (Franco Nero, Django, The Day of the Owl).
