Dillinger is Dead (Dillinger e’ morto) – Philadelphia Premiere

dir. Marco Ferreri, Italy, 1969, 35mm, 90 mins, color, Italian w/ English subtitles

 

After a hard day’s work designing this year’s gas masks, industrial engineer Glauco (Michel Piccoli) comes home to a cold dinner, a sleeping wife and an aloof maid. The answer to his petit-bourgeois boredom? Prepare a gourmet meal, putter about, and reconstruct an antique revolver that may or may not have been owned by John Dillinger. A mind-blowing, multi-layered, and psychedelicized celebration of anarchy in life and cinema, Marco Ferreri’s unjustly neglected masterpiece is a cult classic awaiting its cult, anchored by a stunning lead performance and an amazing pop soundtrack.
