00:00:08Thank you all.
00:00:46Thank you all.
00:01:00Thank you all.
00:01:36Thank you all.
00:02:04Thank you all.
00:02:30My name is Luciano Lutring, nicknamed the machine gun soloist in the underworld and in the milieu.
00:02:37Do you remember me?
00:03:28You can't understand how a normal boy, a student, a son of a family.
00:03:33All of a sudden you're throwing yourself into adventure, right?
00:03:35Want to find out what's in here?
00:03:37Want to decipher Paolo Casaroli? It's not easy, you know?
00:03:41Why did he do what he did?
00:03:43Nature's fault?
00:03:45Of fathers, mothers, the post-war period and circumstances?
00:04:19I was banned.
00:04:21For a few years I was the master of Milan.
00:04:24Master in the sense that I could do what I wanted, go where I wanted, and take what I wanted.
00:04:29And I took where I wanted, where there was room to take.
00:04:33I too have asked myself many times why I became an outlaw.
00:04:36And I thought that the only reason, the only reason, was Milan during the war.
00:04:42I was young at the time, born in 1922.
00:04:45And Milan was destroyed by the war.
00:04:48There were entire neighborhoods razed to the ground.
00:04:50And also my house, my mother's house and my sisters' house.
00:04:53I became an outlaw because I saw my mother getting up at four every morning.
00:04:58to go and queue for hours to get half a kilo of bread.
00:05:00And also because all of Milan was like that.
00:05:04There was one half of the city living on the other half.
00:05:07One took the other and the other suffered.
00:05:30It's not like robbery was in my blood.
00:05:34But, you know, I grew up there with the images of all these fascists, partisans, young boys.
00:05:42who in the post-war period went up to the mountains and there began to attack, kill, and kidnap.
00:05:47So everyone came to hang out at my parents' place, on Via Novara, San Siro, Milan.
00:05:52And there everyone told a little about their exploits, right?
00:05:57I jumped over a truck, I jumped over a tank.
00:06:00There were the Bezzi and Barbieri gang, there was Dino the paratrooper, Gino the lame one.
00:06:07And all these people here, when the war was almost over,
00:06:11they had blown up the bank safes with dynamite.
00:06:14And there at the bar it was easy because, because when there was a fight you could escape through the back.
00:06:20And then all these scoundrels and scoundrels had nicknamed it the cream and bar.
00:06:42In 1945 we arrived in Bologna which no longer existed.
00:06:47And I studied in the evenings, I worked during the day, I did a bit of everything.
00:06:50I was a worker, I was a delivery boy.
00:06:55Only the pay was low, the working conditions were humiliating.
00:07:00And I had other ambitions, I wanted to continue boxing, cycling.
00:07:05Because, you know, I was strong as a kid.
00:07:11I was passionate about various sports, but among all of them I preferred football.
00:07:15As a child, on Sundays I worked as a shovel picker at the arena.
00:07:18And I happened to meet in the middle.
00:07:21I called him yours, you understand? I called him Pepin.
00:07:23Just like a teammate from the oratory.
00:07:27And I also knew the legends of the first team, the ones coached by Arpad Weiss.
00:07:30There was Annibale Frossi, Giovanni Ferrari, the goalkeeper Cerasoli, Evratko.
00:07:37I was good on the pitch, huh? Not as good as Pepin, but I knew what I was doing.
00:07:40I went through all the youth teams at Ambrosiana, from the Pulcini to the first team.
00:07:45A guy from the company even made me try out for the team.
00:07:48I mean, in the real team, huh?
00:07:56It didn't work out.
00:07:58I know, things could have gone differently.
00:08:01if only I had been faster with my feet than with the trigger.
00:08:28I remember my mother seeing her go out at night
00:08:33that it was still dark outside.
00:08:35There was deep snow, it was freezing cold.
00:08:38and she walked along the road that led to the factory
00:08:43where she worked as a laborer.
00:08:46My father was a bricklayer
00:08:48and I hated it.
00:08:52He was a terrible father.
00:08:55Womanizer, the violent one.
00:08:58One day I take a chair and smash it on him.
00:09:02I was in so much pain because of him.
00:09:06that I continued to wet the bed
00:09:08until I was 16.
00:09:13In Turin the revolutionary spirit was in the air
00:09:16along with the smoke from the factories,
00:09:19to industrial smog.
00:09:21There were three Fiat sections
00:09:23with the thousands of workers in overalls.
00:09:25The steel mills, the foundry,
00:09:28the large engines where the best specialized workers are employed,
00:09:32those who make Barbies, mustaches on flies.
00:09:36There weren't many choices.
00:09:38In the barriers, in the barracks of the outskirts,
00:09:41in public housing.
00:09:43Or continue working with your head down,
00:09:47maybe to find a job as a clerk
00:09:51to the smartest son or he would just leave it there,
00:09:54shacks and puppets, fuck this shitty society
00:09:57and we start from Ferrante in Porti,
00:10:00juvenile prison and then ending up in Corso Vittorio
00:10:03or to beat the pavement or to the new ones.
00:10:22What year was it?
00:10:24The 51 or the 52?
00:10:27No, no, it was supposed to be 52.
00:10:29Togliatti speaks at Michelotti Park
00:10:32and I go down to the Po with Danilo Crepaldi
00:10:35and with the other boys from the Milan barrier.
00:10:38Something never seen before.
00:10:40400 young people,
00:10:42a half-kilometer-long procession behind me,
00:10:45right under the eyes of old comrades.
00:10:57They said God does
00:10:59Alain Drago the Piero
00:11:03I had no problem throwing punches
00:11:05it often happened that
00:11:07having to face fascists
00:11:09who were trying to break the balls in the barrier
00:11:11and then there were
00:11:12the scabs.
00:11:14Willingly or not
00:11:15a scab is a traitor and an enemy
00:11:18even if he doesn't know it
00:11:19and we need to make him understand that
00:11:21with good manners
00:11:23or with the bad ones.
00:11:25Every now and again
00:11:26the carambas and the pulemi pecked
00:11:28And
00:11:29I spent a night on guard
00:11:30but
00:11:30but it ended there.
00:11:40the scabs must hit their noses
00:11:43against the trade union unity bag.
00:11:57«idelia»
00:11:59Come here! Come on! Come on! Come here!
00:12:25Brecht said that it is more criminal to found a bank than to rob it.
00:12:33And I agree with him.
00:12:35Do you know, friends? He who fulfills his life will die his death victorious,
00:12:40surrounded by the hope and promises of others.
00:12:43This is the best death, to die in battle and give a great soul.
00:12:48I also used to carry a Canadian police Smith & Wesson, but without bullets, without bullets.
00:12:53I never shot, so to make a fuss sometimes I made the noise of gunshots.
00:12:58I put firecrackers under the soles of my boots, pim pum pum, I shot like that.
00:13:02I was playing matches, I was driving around in a Cadillac.
00:13:04When I hugged a girl, instead of making her feel like a canary, I made her feel like a gun.
00:13:23One time my aunt Vittoria said to me, "Go pay the bills on purpose, okay?" I'll go.
00:13:29And since the clerk was slow, I punched him on the counter.
00:13:34And so, when he raised his arm, the gun was seen, evidently, which was under his belt.
00:13:39This guy got scared and gave me all the money.
00:13:42And I thought it was a robbery, right?
00:13:44And inside I thought, is it that easy?
00:13:47And then I took everything and left.
00:13:59Do you know how we decided to go on a war footing?
00:14:04Throwing a box of matches into the air.
00:14:06If it came to a head, we continued looking for a job.
00:14:10Instead it was a cross.
00:14:11And off with the banks.
00:14:31You don't just become a thief.
00:14:33And you don't do it alone.
00:14:34You need to know the techniques, the receivers.
00:14:38And Danilo...
00:14:40Danilo knew a lot of people in the neighborhood.
00:14:43Many former partisans.
00:14:45And so finding the weapons was not a problem.
00:14:49I remember that German machine gun.
00:14:52We went out into the open countryside, to a deserted place.
00:14:55We had also built a sort of template, with a board and a piece of cardboard.
00:15:00The machine gun had no recoil.
00:15:02It was heavy, but easy to handle.
00:15:04Sante fired a few bursts, but he was shooting horizontally.
00:15:07I showed him how it was done.
00:15:09Short bursts.
00:15:12Three or four shots.
00:15:15Transversally.
00:15:15From top to bottom, from right to left and vice versa.
00:15:18Without aiming.
00:15:19At least one shot hit the mark every time.
00:15:22Because the machine gun tends to rise.
00:15:24And you...
00:15:25You think you're shooting at that spot, but instead...
00:15:28Instead you are completely off target.
00:15:31If you shoot diagonally, the surface you can hit expands.
00:15:37However, Sante quickly became familiar with the machine gun and I encouraged him.
00:15:43Think if that's it...
00:15:44That one there.
00:15:45Imagine if it's that Fasagnelli.
00:15:47Oh Valetta.
00:15:48Or a fascist bastard.
00:15:50Oh Scelba.
00:15:51Or a cop.
00:15:51Come on, come on!
00:15:53Let's throw these pigs in there.
00:16:22And then at 18 I got married to Anna.
00:16:25who was 17.
00:16:26We were going...
00:16:27We were barely getting by.
00:16:31To go on a seaside holiday I robbed the post office in Corticella.
00:16:36Yes, with a toy gun.
00:16:38I was a little nervous, a little like that.
00:16:41A little scared.
00:16:42There were three employees, there were two men, one woman.
00:16:46There were a few people.
00:16:47I approached a cashier with my bag.
00:16:50I showed him the gun.
00:16:52I waited until people had left and told them
00:16:56give me all the money you have back there.
00:16:57And nothing, that was...
00:16:58It was my first shot.
00:17:00The first hit was in a dairy store.
00:17:06And it all went wrong.
00:17:08I smashed the owner's head with a rolling pin
00:17:12and they caught me.
00:17:14I wasn't even 18 yet
00:17:16and they transferred me to the Beccaria juvenile prison.
00:17:24Cheer up!
00:17:26What is your name?
00:17:35I don't remember who defined me
00:17:38the Napoleon of crime.
00:17:42Someone from the press
00:17:44he even thought of calling me the Bolognese Dillinger.
00:17:46I liked it, but...
00:17:48But unfortunately it doesn't take root.
00:17:51Yes, they wrote a lot about me.
00:17:52Also good, important, qualified people.
00:17:55Enzo Biagi, for example.
00:17:56I knew his name.
00:17:58He was telling me about him...
00:18:00Roman.
00:18:02Ranuzzi.
00:18:06Ranuzzi read everything, he knew everyone.
00:18:08He was interested in journalism.
00:18:10He was a good boy, you know?
00:18:16I met him before the war.
00:18:18In a gym.
00:18:20Sandro Bezzi, born in 1920, from Baggio.
00:18:24They called it Forbidden Fist.
00:18:29He didn't have a penny.
00:18:31Every now and then they even took up a collection for him.
00:18:33Then he was illiterate,
00:18:34he could neither read nor write.
00:18:37I put a lot of money in his hand
00:18:39and I also gave him a car.
00:18:43And he tells me...
00:18:45And you see, I don't know how to drive.
00:18:47And I...
00:18:48Then drive someone's car,
00:18:50I didn't let them run around.
00:18:52Or after a week,
00:18:54he had learned to drive with that same car.
00:18:57Did you understand?
00:18:57It started with me from scratch.
00:18:59With the jewelers and the banks.
00:19:10My best friend was...
00:19:13Arnaldo Gesmundo.
00:19:15The press called him Jesse the Bandit.
00:19:19We were two guys from an American movie
00:19:22or French,
00:19:24dressed like mannequins
00:19:26in department stores,
00:19:28young,
00:19:30thirsty for...
00:19:31of pussy, of money,
00:19:34insecure and violent.
00:19:55You don't know...
00:19:58You cannot understand what friendship is.
00:20:01Do you think that...
00:20:02As I was dying,
00:20:03on the car,
00:20:06Ranuzzi put a hand on my shoulder
00:20:07and with a smile he greeted me.
00:20:09Hi Paolo.
00:20:11And you read Farris's last letter.
00:20:14Dear Paolo, my last thought is for you.
00:20:20Farris was the real SS officer,
00:20:23cold, wild.
00:20:26At 15 meters,
00:20:27with a target gun,
00:20:29he was blowing out a candle.
00:20:30Those who accelerated were lucky
00:20:32why Farris and Ranuzzi
00:20:33they would have had fun
00:20:34to throw a hand grenade
00:20:35on the police truck
00:20:36and to send to the other world
00:20:3830 or 40 agents.
00:20:39It would have been a mess
00:20:40if they came to meet us.
00:20:49But between us
00:20:52the trouble
00:20:52if even just one escaped
00:20:54a little word
00:20:55too strong,
00:20:58aggressive.
00:20:59The next day
00:20:59we sent each other letters
00:21:00to ask for forgiveness
00:21:02as boyfriends.
00:21:04When I got angry
00:21:05but they were silent
00:21:06both,
00:21:07him and Daniele.
00:21:08Right away.
00:21:08Right away.
00:21:42The first time I spoke
00:21:43with Sante Notar Nicola
00:21:44he had arrived in Turin
00:21:46recently.
00:21:47A little Arab
00:21:48of the province of Taranto.
00:21:50I saw him at the recreation club
00:21:51of the section.
00:21:53It was together
00:21:53to other kids.
00:21:54I called him
00:21:56and I asked him
00:21:58if he knew
00:21:59what was communism.
00:22:01In front of everyone.
00:22:02Poor Gagnut Arunet.
00:22:04He was so embarrassed.
00:22:05He stammered something
00:22:07and I stopped him.
00:22:08And I told him
00:22:09that communism
00:22:10it is the association
00:22:11of all the best men.
00:22:14The most honest,
00:22:15the bravest
00:22:16and all together.
00:22:17We could have
00:22:18change things
00:22:19and all of Italy
00:22:20would have become
00:22:21like the Milan barrier.
00:22:24Yes.
00:22:26Where the fascists
00:22:27and the Christian Democrats
00:22:28they had tails
00:22:29between the legs.
00:22:30The police
00:22:31he was coming against the shadow
00:22:33and the masters.
00:22:35The masters
00:22:36they took it
00:22:37low and low.
00:22:38and they didn't dare
00:22:39not so much
00:22:40to raise one's crest.
00:23:01the most exciting spring.
00:23:03the beautiful girls.
00:23:05Every time I conquered one
00:23:06I was getting excited about one.
00:23:08Jackets in the Fifth Army
00:23:09and to make a scene
00:23:10P-38 and machine gun magazines
00:23:12in the belt.
00:23:13Then they stole
00:23:13cars and so on
00:23:14at a mad pace
00:23:15smashing engines,
00:23:17bumpers.
00:23:18Whores,
00:23:18yes, but
00:23:20how wonderful.
00:23:21Make the lunch box
00:23:21in Matera
00:23:22as we say
00:23:23of those of Bassoconio.
00:23:24Or the guanguanas,
00:23:25the high-end ones.
00:23:27Oh the greedy ones,
00:23:29simply eager
00:23:30because in the end
00:23:31if one knows how to do it
00:23:32whores are a bit
00:23:33all women.
00:23:47We once caught
00:23:48an AMG
00:23:50convertible
00:23:51full of suitcases
00:23:52of two Swiss farrocche.
00:23:54So we stole
00:23:55the suitcases.
00:23:56We opened a
00:23:57and says
00:23:58gives me
00:24:00some things
00:24:00all lace
00:24:02but nice stuff,
00:24:02Understood?
00:24:03stuff
00:24:04refined stuff
00:24:05it's a photograph.
00:24:11Stupendous.
00:24:13I fell in love
00:24:14of this one here.
00:24:16This one here
00:24:17I'm marrying her.
00:24:18Indeed
00:24:19I returned
00:24:20the suitcase
00:24:21and 40 days
00:24:22after that I married her.
00:24:24Yvonne
00:24:25it was called.
00:24:26Yvonne.
00:24:31Yvonne did
00:24:32the entrenosa.
00:24:37Entrenosa
00:24:37at the time it means
00:24:39one who did
00:24:40the good life
00:24:41but
00:24:41a great lady,
00:24:43Understood?
00:24:43Michael.
00:24:45Michael.
00:24:46And,
00:25:01And,
00:25:01And,
00:25:01And,
00:25:01And,
00:25:19And my mom brought Yvonne home, right?
00:25:22My mom couldn't believe it.
00:25:24I saw this one coming, those gloves that were long up to here, the long hair,
00:25:27all made up, like this, with 13-centimeter heels.
00:25:32My mom was a friend who lived there, that thing here.
00:25:35I was with Giannina, a girl from the neighborhood,
00:25:37who put his hands under our legs,
00:25:40she had crocheted panties on, they pinched you,
00:25:43they looked like the burglar alarm, like that.
00:25:45But I was, I was, I was a dreamer.
00:25:53I liked silk stockings, yellow stockings, and pampanini stockings.
00:26:03And my mother wasn't very used to that ideal of a woman,
00:26:06like this, too sexy, too avant-garde.
00:26:08And then he kicked me out of the house.
00:26:14And then I took the violin case
00:26:19and then I put the machine gun in there.
00:26:22For that reason, the journalist from Bella
00:26:23He gave me the nickname of machine gun soloist.
00:26:26In 1955 I married Anita.
00:26:29She wasn't a companion.
00:26:31For others she was a lady with three eyes.
00:26:36And the three views in Corso Vercelli mean
00:26:39three tails of some beast attached to the collar of the coat.
00:26:44A good girl.
00:26:46Very well done.
00:26:48She was someone who asked few questions.
00:27:16The first shot went well, then nothing,
00:27:18we found ourselves with quite a bit more money
00:27:21compared to when I was working.
00:27:23And Anna was a little surprised.
00:27:25I told him I had been in a car accident.
00:27:29and that that would be, well, that was the insurance money.
00:27:34So with that little extra money we bought some furniture
00:27:36to furnish the house, we bought a cheap heater,
00:27:40then a refrigerator, you know, that stuff there, right?
00:28:00The return of the ulcer.
00:28:01Eh, I have an ulcer tonight.
00:28:03One evening there is a headache, one evening there is back pain.
00:28:06All excuses, I'm fed up.
00:28:08You have to tell yourself now, when...
00:28:12Why not, sorry?
00:28:14You never feel like it.
00:28:16I've been taking the pill for three months for nothing, I'm fed up, you understand?
00:28:19Stop it, stop it.
00:28:20Stop it, stop it, stop it.
00:28:21No, stop it, I say.
00:28:25Give it a rest, okay?
00:28:26Cut, cut.
00:28:27But what is it you want to cut off?
00:28:28Where are you going now? Don't go to the living room.
00:28:30But I don't mess up, I don't mess up.
00:28:32I told you not to go to the living room, stay here.
00:28:34But why? There's no television over there either.
00:28:35You want to watch TV, you watch it here, you watch it.
00:28:38Once, with Aivone, we were in Milan, on two wheels,
00:28:40to eat a slice of panettone and have two glasses of spumanti,
00:28:43on Christmas Eve, you understand?
00:28:44As Milanese tradition requires.
00:28:46We went out arm in arm to go to the parking lot to get the car
00:28:49and my wife goes, eh, look over there, there was a window all lit up with a white ermine fur coat.
00:28:57My wife, who was also a model, immediately says, huh, how beautiful, what a dream, how wonderful.
00:29:02But what did you want to tell us?
00:29:04It was Christmas Eve, I told him, come on, there's a taxi, go home and I'll see if I can find it
00:29:07the master.
00:29:09I haven't found the owner yet.
00:29:11So, at five in the morning,
00:29:14a drink down at the window,
00:29:15then there's pa, the fur, the mannequin and everything,
00:29:18and I brought it home to him.
00:29:59Our first target was Fiat,
00:30:03but it made sense,
00:30:05it couldn't have been otherwise.
00:30:06It was about going there to collect the pay slips from the night shift.
00:30:11Danilo knew the place,
00:30:13the topography, the timetables,
00:30:14staff habits.
00:30:17There would have been about twenty million.
00:30:19And on May 14th,
00:30:20around nine o'clock,
00:30:23we took an engineer's 1100 in via Juvara and took it to the barrier.
00:30:27I hadn't eaten.
00:30:30Danilo's advice,
00:30:31never gorge yourself before an action, he always said.
00:30:34It's the partisan's rule.
00:30:36You become heavy with slow reflexes,
00:30:38the distended stomach, the full belly.
00:30:40It's dangerous even if you get a bullet in the stomach.
00:30:44Departure.
00:30:44Mortara Course,
00:30:45Via Liorno, Via Don Bosco, all good.
00:30:47The weapons were in place.
00:30:49The machine gun was also mounted and loaded.
00:30:52The Mauser rifle would have remained in the car.
00:30:53That was for the carabinieri.
00:30:57If they came to bother.
00:31:00Workers should absolutely not be hit.
00:31:04Absolutely.
00:31:05For the guards to shoot only in desperate cases, but without killing them.
00:31:08The first commandment of the guerrilla.
00:31:11Never lose your head.
00:31:13Never.
00:31:15Here is the machine with the wages.
00:31:17And then we go out with our machine guns drawn.
00:31:20The head guard throws a bike at me.
00:31:22He reaches under his jacket to pull out the gun,
00:31:24but a short burst of machine gun fire above his head puts him off.
00:31:28Well, in the meantime Danilo has already entered the offices.
00:31:32In the cashier's box.
00:31:34He took his money.
00:31:35He was on high.
00:31:37He felt like he was back in the good old days.
00:31:39That is, the bad times.
00:31:42Those of the resistance.
00:31:49We noticed that there was an armored vehicle
00:31:52that every morning at eight o'clock sharp
00:31:55he left the Banca Popolare
00:31:57and he went to carry a suitcase.
00:32:00It was an armored vehicle that carried money throughout the day
00:32:03at the 34 branches.
00:32:05As a place for robbery
00:32:07we chose the Osoppo road.
00:32:10We needed four vehicles
00:32:14and at least seven men to carry out the coup.
00:32:17Then there was Russo,
00:32:18who is the member who joined the gang the latest,
00:32:21who would have driven the getaway car.
00:32:24Russo, was at the wheel of the Miraglia.
00:32:25Bolognini had to stay on the ground with the bat,
00:32:28smash the window of the armored vehicle
00:32:30and take care of the driver of the armored vehicle.
00:32:33Bolognini shattered the van's window.
00:32:35Ciappina, takes the spoils.
00:32:38Cesaroni had to drive the van with the suitcases
00:32:40and I took on the most difficult task.
00:32:46De Maria drove the truck into the van.
00:32:48We chose February 27, 1958 as the date.
00:32:53and we chose February 27th because it was payment day
00:32:57and that day the bank needs cash.
00:33:25In the middle of the robbery at some point
00:33:27an old woman coming out of a delicatessen
00:33:30and he sees us there with weapons in hand and he shouts at us
00:33:34«Dialaura!»
00:33:36That is, go to work.
00:33:38I'm really calm at the guard and I say
00:33:40“Madam, what do you think we’re doing?
00:33:42This is our job!
00:33:47"Ma'am, what do you think we're doing?"
00:34:17Everyone was stressing the fact that the coup had been made.
00:34:20as professionals, cold blooded
00:34:22and especially the people were impressed
00:34:26from the fact that we managed to disarm the policeman
00:34:30in fact without even firing a shot.
00:34:32"Ma'am, what do you think we're doing?"
00:35:04«But I was also considered a thief, let's say, a gentleman.
00:35:07I went to the jewelry store with a bouquet of flowers that I needed
00:35:10because that's how I hid the machine gun.
00:35:13And there the shop assistants, when then my cop arrived with the gun
00:35:16they threw themselves with their arms around my neck
00:35:18to be saved.
00:35:20Another time in Milan we went to the bank
00:35:22and the cashier says to us, "Are you still here?"
00:35:26«How are you still here?»
00:35:27"Are we coming now?"
00:35:29«Hey, the other robbers left this morning
00:35:31and they were those of Cavallero.
00:35:33But no, no, you see, you understand?
00:35:34There was no coordination.
00:35:36And then you ask me, "If you want, I can give you some change?"
00:35:39«Leave it alone, if not some beards!»
00:35:41«If I said, if not some beards, we'll pass by another time
00:35:44and we went to rob the nearby savings house.»
00:36:02«November 12, 1965, in Milan.
00:36:05Three banks in 48 minutes.
00:36:07By now we were no longer attacking just one target at a time, but two or three.
00:36:17The preparation was always long and complicated
00:36:20and stealing cars is increasingly dangerous
00:36:22and that's why we came up with the doubles and triples
00:36:27and the police were confused.
00:36:37Nobody could stop us.
00:36:39No, we weren't afraid of anyone.
00:36:42This is how we entered the history of Milan,
00:36:44as for the Aprilia Phantom affair,
00:36:46the car of our hits.
00:36:50Nobody knows that we had several Aprilias,
00:36:52not just one, we kept them hidden.
00:36:55How do you get around?
00:36:56with the cars all riddled with bullet holes?
00:36:59On one I counted 120 bullet holes,
00:37:02many bursts when they tried to stop us at checkpoints.
00:37:10I stole them, I lowered the engine head
00:37:13and I put a double-choke Weber carburetor in it.
00:37:16The police had a stura, a balilla
00:37:18and the one who took it was the barber.
00:37:29Every evening in Turin and Milan
00:37:32they took long trips that inevitably led nowhere.
00:37:37The first place they go fishing is among the fences,
00:37:41the whores, the pimps, the homosexuals
00:37:44and all those who live on the margins
00:37:47between the mafia and the madam ready to serve and to fuck
00:37:50both depending on the occasion.
00:37:56Dangerous as the plague.
00:37:59But it wasn't in our environment.
00:38:18We liked to live well.
00:38:22We had it all.
00:38:24We could fulfill every wish.
00:38:29You see a beautiful woman and say I would like it.
00:38:32We said we wanted it and we took it.
00:38:37We were flush with money.
00:38:3920,000 lire, two nights with a clean bill of health.
00:38:42There was an opera singer who went to greet me after the arrest.
00:38:46She knew me as engineer Paolo Miller.
00:38:50It is impossible that the engineer fired.
00:38:52Did he say that?
00:38:54In Naples I was also engaged to a countess.
00:38:57We lived in big hotels.
00:39:00Battista, what day is it? Wednesday, sir.
00:39:02Sunny weather, sir.
00:39:03Warm, not hot. Good, sir.
00:39:06Breakfast, whatever you want, Battista.
00:39:18He died laughing.
00:39:39The police were looking for me in the slums.
00:39:43But I was in 5-star hotels.
00:39:45I was on the French Riviera.
00:39:47I drank champagne, ate caviar, oysters.
00:39:52I was among industrialists, great magnates, princes.
00:39:55Understood?
00:39:56I mean, I used to have my coats cut to measure.
00:39:59There was the cove, sonassi, all those people there.
00:40:01And I shared my life with them, right there in my own soup.
00:40:03It's not that I shared their life exactly, but I was there.
00:40:06It was my life.
00:40:08I was there.
00:40:09And no one could believe I was there.
00:40:21And then I lived in Mannheim, in a beautiful luxurious villa,
00:40:27with my young lover, elegant clothes, sports cars.
00:40:32I stole quite a few millions.
00:41:01I stole quite a few millions.
00:41:05Who is?
00:41:06Ugo, with that pigeon next to you, Don Mendo, are you, eh?
00:41:10Get to the point.
00:41:12I'd like to be there, in your place, Ugo.
00:41:15A pigeon!
00:41:17It got better with age, huh?
00:41:20Now he has more experience.
00:41:22You know, he didn't waste any time.
00:41:24You're too stupid to talk about women, Rocco.
00:41:55With age she improved, she didn't waste any time.
00:42:04Are you finished?
00:42:05Have you finished all this noise in my house?
00:42:12We had a plan, me and the others.
00:42:15It's either wealth or death, right?
00:42:16It's not a question of right or wrong.
00:42:20It was like that, but it went badly.
00:42:24To think that the one in Rome was supposed to be the last blow.
00:42:35I killed for the first time on January 17, 1967, in Ciriè, at the San Paolo.
00:42:44It was an accident.
00:42:47I had the machine gun without the safety catch due to distraction and when it hit with the barrel and the doctor who was moving, oh well,
00:42:56a shot went off.
00:43:00His name was Domenico Gaiottino.
00:43:06Whether it was a voluntary act or an accident, what difference does it make?
00:43:11What changes for the victim and for those left behind?
00:43:17Yes, there is repentance, but it is unspeakable.
00:43:23Words can only make it banal.
00:43:27I don't regret any of the deaths I've caused.
00:43:30Why should I?
00:43:31For me, being a senarruzzi was worth 300 of the others.
00:43:34I only feel sorry for those injured people, Tonelli, because he was my age, because he was young like me.
00:43:43I'm glad he made it.
00:43:45The only one who was able to really screw me was Count Mino.
00:43:49He knew everything about me.
00:43:50Where I lived, the plans I had with Bezzi.
00:43:53And on November 2, 1945, he was arrested by the madam while he was high on cocaine in the middle of the street.
00:43:59Then at this hour he went down and told everything.
00:44:03That same night we heard three bell rings, the signal for friends in the apartment on Via Clefi,
00:44:07which was also our headquarters.
00:44:09I say, who is it? It's Mino, open up, they hurt me.
00:44:13I was there with my Tina, my sweetheart.
00:44:16I told her to open it and she threw the door open.
00:44:19Here comes the end of the world, bursts of lyre, musket shots.
00:44:23Tina had thrown herself to the ground and I thought she had been killed.
00:44:27And so I threw a hand grenade and started shooting too, right?
00:44:30Bezzi melted away. I was left alone against a hundred for a whole night.
00:44:36They took me at eight in the morning.
00:44:39Stramato.
00:44:42And then the beatings.
00:44:45Three broken ribs and an arm.
00:44:47Until the swollen tongue seemed to fit inside the mouth no longer.
00:44:51He heard a doctor say, this is not his place, it would be better to take him to the morgue, he will die soon.
00:44:57And yet I survived.
00:45:17One day I was arrested, the second time was in '67, while I was trying to commit a robbery in Saint-Tropez.
00:45:25In short, they arrested me, I did some prison time in France, where the rules are inhumane.
00:45:33So much so that I tried to escape in Aix-en-Provence, still with the chains and wrists, only that
00:45:37They took me right away.
00:45:39And from that moment on the cage doors never opened again.
00:46:13And it all ended on December 16, 1950, in Bologna.
00:46:18Where did it start?
00:46:20If the police had arrived 5 minutes later, they might not have even caught us.
00:46:24We were expecting a car at any moment, we had to go to Milan.
00:46:27For us, Bologna had always been a place of passage.
00:46:31We had our plans, but things didn't always add up.
00:46:36Terror is called Casaroli.
00:46:39This time, however, it is not the infamous ravinatore who is shooting under the porticoes of Bologna.
00:46:42It is Renato Salvatori, who plays the part of the bandit in Florestano Bancini's film.
00:46:47The story cinematically reconstructs the exploits of the gang that became sadly famous in Italy in 1950.
00:46:54Too bad I ran out of emotions that day.
00:46:57When you see me finally done for, I put the revolver to my temple and pulled the trigger.
00:47:03Nothing to be done.
00:47:29Retired Marshal De Carabinieri is the driver.
00:47:33They died like idiots, I wanted to die, like the bank teller.
00:47:38He was going against the machine gun of farri, they are inhabited.
00:47:40And the driver saw the marshal lying on his back, he heard the traffic warden complaining.
00:47:45He had a gun pointed at his chest and Ranuzzi, who was screaming at him, jumped behind the wheel.
00:47:50What does he do?
00:47:52He hangs up the phone and wants to call the police station.
00:47:54But it's the truth.
00:47:56And those policemen?
00:47:59There was someone who was shooting from behind a column, but without sticking his head out.
00:48:05And with one blow I knocked off his shoulder pad.
00:48:08And he started screaming, he was complaining.
00:48:09My shoulder pad, look, he blew my shoulder pad off.
00:48:14Buffoon.
00:48:16It would have been enough to jump over a ditch.
00:48:19Bezzi was agile.
00:48:21He could have thrown himself into a black locust bush and that was it, you understand?
00:48:26That same evening he would reappear brighter than ever in some suburban valera
00:48:30to tell customers, as well as that day, February 26, 1946.
00:48:35The madam had fooled her.
00:48:38They blew her head off with two bursts of bullets.
00:48:41They said it doesn't fall right away.
00:48:43Keep pedaling, dead.
00:48:46Driven by the force of inertia and the downhill road.
00:48:51It was Sandro Bezzi's great afternoon.
00:48:55Man killed on his bicycle on a street in Greco.
00:48:58With a newspaper spread over his face in the silent crowd.
00:49:02The trams were full of people who had come all the way there to see the bandit killed.
00:49:10Ezio Barbieri, known as the Mitra musketeer.
00:49:17A burst of gunfire had hit him in the right arm before his last trip to San Vittore.
00:49:24Barbieri's Torso was Sandro Bezzi, colder and less exhibitionist.
00:49:28He fell on the Milanese asphalt after an attempt to escape the police trap.
00:49:31the same day of Ezio's capture.
00:49:33February 26, 1946.
00:49:55Do you know what happened next?
00:49:58We ended up surrounded inside a car.
00:50:00I was human.
00:50:02He shot himself in the back seat.
00:50:03He was riddled with bullets and I was seriously injured.
00:50:08Faris had managed to escape, hiding in a gambling den.
00:50:15He learned that Renuzzi and I had been hit, and thought we were dead.
00:50:19and so he reached the Manzoni cinema.
00:50:24During a screening he got a bullet in his heart.
00:50:46We were returning to Paris after a robbery with two of my accomplices.
00:50:50There was one Belgian and the other Algerian.
00:50:54At one point the Algerian asks me
00:50:55“Look, we’ve run out of gas in the tank.”
00:50:59"But how? My goodness, how did we run out of gas?
00:51:02It's okay that the car is stolen, but...
00:51:03Damn it! You have to think about these things.
00:51:06Okay, nothing. Then we'll stop for gas.
00:51:09Especially that there, at the gas station,
00:51:11we see that there is a French police Peugeot parked.
00:51:14We don't even notice it at the time.
00:51:16Evidently, in hindsight, I thought that this station
00:51:19it has been skipped several times
00:51:20and so there were ready to jump on the head
00:51:23to the first ones who passed by again, right?
00:51:25But at a certain point these two arrive
00:51:27at the window and they give us documents.
00:51:29How do you document?
00:51:30The Algerian puts it into gear and off we go.
00:51:34And he sets off in pursuit.
00:52:03Only that if I put you on the streets of Paris
00:52:04It lasted three minutes. Why?
00:52:08Why? Because we were out of gas.
00:52:10So what?
00:52:11And then nothing happens.
00:52:12Everyone saves themselves, they're hot on their heels.
00:52:14Then I jump out of the car
00:52:15and I start running.
00:52:17And I run, and I run, and I run like a madman
00:52:19until at a certain point I hear gunshots behind me.
00:52:21There's someone running after me.
00:52:23And he shoots me.
00:52:24He shoots me in the air, he shoots me.
00:52:25In my back.
00:52:26Pam! I feel a blow in my back.
00:52:28And I feel it.
00:52:30At first glance it doesn't even hurt that much,
00:52:31but it struck me.
00:52:33And then he shoots me again,
00:52:34He grabs my left arm and right leg.
00:52:36And that's where it starts to hurt a little.
00:52:38I lose one of the two guns
00:52:40and the other one starts shooting.
00:52:44And there I start to struggle,
00:52:46I understand, I'm losing blood,
00:52:47people start screaming,
00:52:49help, like this.
00:52:50And after an hour they find me dying under a doorway.
00:52:54I said a prayer for my mom,
00:52:56one for Ivonne.
00:52:58He took me to the hospital, just like that.
00:53:00So on the ambulance.
00:53:01Then I don't remember anything else
00:53:02because 40 days have passed
00:53:04and I was in a coma.
00:53:05Lead infection, no laughing matter.
00:53:07But I got over that too.
00:53:09I was over it.
00:53:37But where are you going?
00:53:38Then I'll tell you.
00:53:41Our last action
00:53:46it was September 25, 1967,
00:53:50branch 11 of the Banco di Napoli,
00:53:53Largo Zandonai, Milan.
00:53:57The assault was technically perfect.
00:54:02We were veterans by now,
00:54:04only that later, by chance,
00:54:07smoke intercepted by the police.
00:54:10if we attack the city for hours for an escape from San Vittorio,
00:54:14but the rest is history.
00:54:38street shooting, dead, injured,
00:54:43captured rovoletto, captured rovoletto.
00:55:01Do you want to know how it happens that we get caught?
00:55:09As is known, the seven suits used by the robbers of Milan's Via Osoppo
00:55:13They were found on the Olona riverbed by a rag and bone man.
00:55:16Unfortunately, no useful data for the investigation was obtained from their examination.
00:55:21However much they are shaken and shaken, turned and turned over,
00:55:24there was no one inside anymore.
00:55:28It was stuff we had stolen from Pucci
00:55:32and it was all Pucci's fault.
00:55:36I took it to the police station
00:55:39and then making someone like Pucci sing was child's play,
00:55:42it was enough to threaten him and throw him in jail and he gave our names.
00:55:51So, hands behind your back,
00:55:53they took us each to a different office
00:55:57and they questioned us.
00:55:58Five endless days and five endless nights.
00:56:01I took so many hits that I couldn't hear anymore.
00:56:05My neck was completely swollen,
00:56:09my eyes were clumsy, I couldn't swallow.
00:56:12I couldn't see, they were moving forward.
00:56:14Anyway, in short, there was no need for further violence.
00:56:18because we were done for.
00:56:49Eight days on the run.
00:56:51They looked for us everywhere.
00:56:54Roadblocks, roundups,
00:56:57mass arrests of criminals.
00:56:59The operation cost the state hundreds and hundreds of millions.
00:57:28they can't leave Milan.
00:57:30at least we shouldn't.
00:57:31Mr. Commissioner.
00:57:32It was October 3rd.
00:57:35We were hiding in an abandoned toll booth.
00:57:39There was no money, there were no friends.
00:57:42It was just me and Sante
00:57:44and the whole world against us.
00:57:47He sees me surrendered.
00:57:50And I understood that in that moment he
00:57:54he came to hate me.
00:57:55Poor Sante.
00:57:57He knew the truth too
00:57:59but he didn't want to tell it to himself.
00:58:04It had always been impossible to do
00:58:06what we had initially set out to do.
00:58:08But what political project?
00:58:10What revolutionary robberies were they?
00:58:14And Danilo had understood it before me.
00:58:17He wanted to make the big score
00:58:18then retire in peace
00:58:19but I
00:58:20I didn't want to stop
00:58:22Not
00:58:22I couldn't.
00:58:24I wanted to continue doing
00:58:25what we had always done.
00:58:28I liked it.
00:58:30I liked it.
00:58:32That
00:58:32it was mine
00:58:34guerrilla.
00:58:36My struggle.
00:59:17And Danilo had understood it before me.
00:59:20And Danilo had understood it before me.
01:00:06The trial lasted a month.
01:00:09The audience hall
01:00:11it was always full of
01:00:13of people
01:00:14even curious people.
01:00:15among others
01:00:16I remember
01:00:17there was this
01:00:19Mary Grace
01:00:21then it went on
01:00:22for all 16 years in prison
01:00:23to write to me
01:00:25in jail.
01:00:27Anyway
01:00:28I got caught
01:00:2820 years
01:00:298 months

01:00:40he wanted to let me pass

01:00:43in his last ring
01:00:44described
01:00:45my alleged
01:00:47mental state
01:00:48We see
01:00:48among the symptoms
01:00:49there were

01:01:16my favorite
01:01:18taste for adventure
01:01:20I swear
01:01:21but I will have some
01:01:22forget a couple
01:01:24then he concluded
01:01:24with due gravity
01:01:25Casaroli is lucid
01:01:27but
01:01:27as he said
01:01:28Anatole Franz
01:01:29there is nothing
01:01:31more tragic
01:01:32in a madman
01:01:33of reason
01:02:00thank you all
01:02:22Now
01:02:23I thought
01:02:24that it had been
01:02:25of a gift
01:02:26and if not justify
01:02:27the adventure
01:02:27go alone
01:02:28with the lean one
01:02:29which he avoided
01:02:40they gave us
01:02:41life imprisonment
01:02:43Donato
01:02:43he got away with it
01:02:44with 12 years
01:02:45the sentence
01:02:46he didn't touch me
01:02:47Very
01:02:47it was obvious
01:02:49do you remember it?
01:02:51in court
01:02:53during the sentence
01:02:54I
01:02:55Saints and Hadrian
01:02:56we got up
01:02:56we sang
01:02:57sons of the workshop
01:02:59and at the same time
01:03:01we always sang it
01:03:02in the demonstrations
01:03:24I still remember
01:03:25the impression I had
01:03:28when they brought me
01:03:28to the penitentiary
01:03:30they put me in the
01:03:31fourth section
01:03:32that of lifers
01:03:35I remember that
01:03:36while I was walking
01:03:37those corridors
01:03:37I saw
01:03:38of the people
01:03:39sitting
01:03:40on their bunks
01:03:41who knitted
01:03:41around a sock
01:03:42a silence
01:03:45almost sepulchral
01:03:47Then
01:03:48I started hanging out with them
01:03:49they were people who had
01:03:50he had refused
01:03:52the conscience
01:03:52people who lived
01:03:53in the immediate present
01:03:54he performed operations
01:03:55reflected
01:03:55the sound of the bell
01:03:56soup time
01:03:58every gesture
01:04:00it was an automatic act
01:04:01a state
01:04:03twilight
01:04:04soxonambulist
01:04:05the impact
01:04:06it was terrible
01:04:09instead of
01:04:10renounce
01:04:11to the conscience
01:04:12past
01:04:12present
01:04:13I told myself
01:04:15that if I could
01:04:15to understand
01:04:16death
01:04:16I would have overcome
01:04:18the trauma
01:04:19of life imprisonment
01:04:20for me
01:04:21it was an adventure
01:04:22huge
01:04:23tremendous
01:04:48the year has come
01:04:49in conclusion
01:04:50to the cave
01:04:50who questions himself
01:04:51day and night
01:04:52continuously
01:04:52like an obsession
01:04:53who I am
01:04:53where are they
01:04:54why I exist
01:04:55I read
01:04:56many books
01:04:56of all kinds
01:04:57it was the research
01:04:59of the ultimate truth
01:05:01it wasn't easy
01:05:03Certain
01:05:05in San Vittore
01:05:09the first days
01:05:10sincerely
01:05:11they were also
01:05:11harder
01:05:14I remember
01:05:16I broke a glass
01:05:17with the arm
01:05:18and with one of the splinters
01:05:20me
01:05:21I wanted to cut them well
01:05:23but then
01:05:23this glass
01:05:24it slipped away from me
01:05:26everywhere
01:05:26And
01:05:28I didn't succeed
01:05:29I think I wasn't
01:05:29not even that convinced
01:05:30of what
01:05:31I was trying to do
01:05:32but anyway
01:05:33I was in bad shape
01:05:34I often thought
01:05:36to end it all
01:05:40it happened to me at night
01:05:41in the cell
01:05:42as
01:05:43like a script
01:05:45which was repeated punctually
01:05:46with a delicate touch
01:05:48almost in silence
01:05:51as
01:05:51it reached me lightly
01:05:52like rinsing
01:05:54of water on the shore
01:05:54and the introduction
01:05:56of the second
01:05:56rhapsody of Lists
01:05:57a shiver
01:05:59it hit my whole body
01:06:01enraptured by ecstasy
01:06:02of that enchantment
01:06:03adolescence
01:06:04Silvia
01:06:06my sister
01:06:07the mother
01:06:09first love
01:06:10the first disappointments
01:06:12adolescence
01:06:42Death may be a serious thing, but it doesn't scare me.
01:06:47And even the corpses impress me.
01:06:50I'd like to put a couple in here, as long as they don't stink, though.
01:06:53They wouldn't bother me at all.
01:06:55No, it's the law, it's stronger.
01:06:59I am consistent, I told you.
01:07:28Then from San Vittore I was transferred to Lecce, for four years.
01:07:33Lecce is even worse, because in Lecce there were lifers, who are the worst.
01:07:41They are bastards with the world, I'm talking to you about lifers in times when life imprisonment was life imprisonment.
01:07:48In the sense that people died in prison.
01:07:51They didn't even give back the body, there was the cemetery inside.
01:07:56And these were bad, indeed.
01:07:59The other inmates were given the toilet cleaning water to drink.
01:08:02The prison situation was as we know it.
01:08:05There were people of all kinds inside.
01:08:07There were politicians and common criminals.
01:08:10There were those condemned to death and there were also the others.
01:08:13I had been placed in the solitary confinement cell together with those condemned to execution.
01:08:17And the evening before that Easter, April 21st,
01:08:20the politicians had organized a kind of boxing match.
01:08:23And the others, those from the other rays, wanted to attend.
01:08:26And so the first signs of discontent began.
01:08:28The prison director sent 24 armed guards.
01:08:31But what could 24 armed guards do?
01:08:34against those hundreds of hotheads?
01:08:38For three days San Vittore was in revolt.
01:08:41Under the command of the bandit Barbieri and the former hierarch Caradonna
01:08:44the prisoners had captured 31 hostages,
01:08:47including two public safety commissioners.
01:08:49They were armed with heavy machine guns, a Panzer Pauz,
01:08:52who possessed 30 kg of TNT.
01:08:54If we had wanted, we could have caused dozens and dozens of deaths.
01:08:57among the soldiers who were besieging us, it would have been a massacre.
01:09:01I convinced them not to do it.
01:09:04I saved 38 hostages who were about to be executed.
01:09:07Did you understand?
01:09:22In those dramatic hours I dictated my conditions.
01:09:26Resignation of the director, improvement of food,
01:09:30freedom of movement within the prison and a general amnesty.
01:09:34At two in the morning we announced that we would wait for the response
01:09:38by eight in the morning.
01:09:40And then we would start taking out the hostages.
01:09:43I know, I know, I exposed myself courageously, perhaps too much.
01:09:46But the situation inside the walls had become unsustainable.
01:09:51At 3.30 pm on the last day the police fired the first cannon shot.
01:09:55and at 3.31pm the first white flag appeared
01:09:58to a large window on the second ray.
01:10:00The brave men of Nembo, Folgola and Legnano
01:10:02they took charge of the operation.
01:10:03An eerie silence reigns in the prison.
01:10:05The insurgents' anger did not even respect the crucifix.
01:10:08A first group of prisoners is sent out with their hands raised.
01:10:12It seems that at the last minute they had attempted to dig a tunnel
01:10:14which would have connected them to a sewer system, allowing them to escape.
01:10:17As of 5pm, 1,351 inmates had already been released.
01:10:21By 8pm the roundups were over.
01:10:23Only about ten men were missing from the roll call.
01:10:27Here is Barbieri.
01:10:29The features of this criminal exude cynicism and cruelty.
01:10:32and his companions are no less than him.
01:10:34Rulers.
01:10:37Barbieri II.
01:10:40Mores.
01:10:42Faustini.
01:10:45Good rye.
01:10:56Good evening, today's main news.
01:10:59In the Fossano prison in Piedmont
01:11:02an armed inmate injured three prison guards
01:11:06and is now barricaded in an office holding two other guards hostage.
01:11:11Prisoner Horst Fantazzini, 30, from Bologna, sentenced to 22 years in prison
01:11:17for aggravated robbery, he attempted to escape by shooting wildly in the prison courtyard.
01:11:23Finding the door closed, he then barricaded himself in the director's office with two hostages.
01:11:28The prisoner asked the Deputy Attorney General of the Republic of Turin
01:11:31a large sum of money and a fast car with a full tank
01:11:36promising to release the hostages safe and sound
01:11:39unless he is pursued or prevented from escaping.
01:11:42But it was a bluff, I had a small Mauser with few rounds
01:11:45and I had already used three of them for...
01:11:48with those three cops I only had two left.
01:12:16And when we left prison to go to Juliet
01:12:20which was there, as I had asked, with the engine running, the doors open...
01:12:35They riddled me with bullets, they also let two wolf dogs go after me.
01:12:40one of which, poor beast, even saved my life because he took the blows for me.
01:12:45And when they took me away on a stretcher I could hear people screaming,
01:12:49who wanted my death.
01:12:52And then they operated on me, but it didn't take away all the bullets,
01:12:56They left me a myriad of little pieces, little pieces.
01:13:12Well, from that moment on my ordeal began.
01:13:15because they started taking me to prisons all over Italy
01:13:19without even telling my relatives, sometimes not even my lawyer.
01:13:24Well, then the following year, in Sulmona, I try to escape,
01:13:29I climb over a five-meter wall, it breaks both my feet,
01:13:32I drag myself to a little church and kidnap a priest
01:13:37because I wanted someone to operate on me.
01:13:49Luckily, 1974 arrived.
01:13:55And so, 16 years, one month and 16 days,
01:14:01After entering prison he came out a free man.
01:14:36Of course, as soon as it came out,
01:14:38my need for sex was more intense than ever
01:14:42but I was full of fears, of embarrassment
01:14:47until one evening I decided that somehow I had to try
01:14:51and I approached a prostitute
01:14:53and she was so sweet, understanding
01:15:02I remember she told me that her husband was also in prison
01:15:07and that was why she ended up doing that job there
01:15:12let's talk a bit, then we'll go to his apartment
01:15:15but he was really sweet, kind
01:15:18to the point that after we chatted a bit I felt like I was in heaven
01:15:22Well, it was nice, it took away all my complexes about my sexual abilities.
01:15:30and I left her happy and contented, let's say
01:15:36they told me so suddenly, without warning
01:15:42grab your stuff and go out
01:15:44they practically threw me out
01:15:45when I went out
01:15:48had a completely purely physical experience
01:15:51intellectually I understood, I was up to speed
01:15:54but the speed of the cars for example
01:15:56I couldn't focus on it
01:16:00even at the height of the stairs I was always at risk of falling
01:16:03then all that skirting
01:16:09those subtle, continuous erotic stimuli
01:16:12like a cloud, like a flickering of colors
01:16:15I couldn't focus on it
01:16:59Ugo, what a coincidence!
01:17:01I was looking for a tax Ugo
01:17:04I'm leaving after three years
01:17:06He's the last person I want to spend my first moments of freedom with.
01:17:10it's you
01:17:11I was looking for a car, right?
01:17:13here it is
01:17:13I'll take you, where do you want to go?
01:17:15I'm not going anywhere
01:17:16Well
01:17:16I'll take you anywhere, okay?
01:17:19go up, go up
01:17:20here, sit at my back
01:17:23thief
01:17:24good, good
01:17:29I stayed
01:17:30I was deafened by the din of Milan
01:17:33which from the rubble of war had transformed into a city
01:17:37in a metropolis, you understand?
01:17:41modern
01:17:41with two metro lines
01:18:08I didn't imagine that women had become so graceful and easy-going here.
01:18:12me who
01:18:14and with my neorealist bandit look I had many girls sitting
01:18:19but above all
01:18:21you feel the sensation of being
01:18:25transparent
01:18:27no one stopped to look at me anymore
01:18:30Milan was
01:18:31forgotten about me
01:18:55thank you all
01:19:13March 27, 1967
01:19:16I am a free man
01:19:19the president of the republic
01:19:21Giovanni Leone pardoned me
01:19:24Luciano Lutring
01:19:25the Mitra soloist is now a free man
01:19:27lives in Milan
01:19:28he lives on painting
01:19:29Lutring paid dearly for his past
01:19:32now he can even afford some coquetry
01:19:35for example, that of authenticating his paintings
01:19:37with the imprint of the hand
01:19:38a kind of summary of fingerprints
01:19:41and with five black dots to represent the commandments of the underworld
01:19:44why this black hand?
01:19:47but look, I've always been used to putting this imprint
01:19:52as if he were at the police station
01:19:53it is a sign of recognition of my works
01:19:56a review of my life as a free man
01:20:00two beautiful daughters
01:20:02twins
01:20:04twenty years
01:20:07Katiusa and Natasha
01:20:09the painting
01:20:10the painting
01:20:11the painting
01:20:12was
01:20:13the beginning of everything
01:20:14of the new life
01:20:15they also gave me some awards
01:20:18and then I made up my own epitaph
01:20:21here lies a man
01:20:24that in his life
01:20:25he ran a lot
01:20:27and now that he's dead
01:20:31he would like to rest in peace
01:20:33thank you all
01:21:08the money from the robbery on Via Osoppo
01:21:12and the police never found them
01:21:14and if I have to be honest
01:21:18I've never found them either
01:21:33in prison
01:21:34In prison I found something that cannot be stolen
01:21:40faith
01:21:42Yes
01:21:44and I know, I know
01:21:45said by me
01:21:46it seems like a joke
01:21:48but it's true
01:21:51Now I just want to be forgotten
01:21:55I'll give you my pay
01:21:58he who will give it to me
01:22:01who will judge my whole life
01:22:04and that's enough for me
01:22:07and I in all these years
01:22:11it happened to me
01:22:12often dreaming
01:22:14Of
01:22:14to escape from prison
01:22:16but
01:22:16clearly in dreams
01:22:18prison was very different
01:22:20from these here
01:22:21yes, it was weird
01:22:22Why
01:22:23people were normal
01:22:25my relatives were even there
01:22:26my wife
01:22:29and I dreamed of escaping
01:22:30but even though I ran away
01:22:32I
01:22:32I could never outrun them
01:22:36despite everything I did
01:22:37in short, I always had them on me
01:22:39And
01:22:40every time I woke up
01:22:41with a feeling of
01:22:44of defeat
01:22:46I still have these dreams
01:22:50but it's not that
01:22:51I'm thinking of escaping
01:22:52because my age
01:22:53In short
01:22:53it would almost seem so too
01:22:56grotesque
01:22:58but something
01:23:01in the brain
01:23:02it remained
01:23:07this dream
01:23:08That
01:23:12this dream
01:23:13that doesn't turn off
