One of Rossellini’s most important films receives a sterling home-video transfer that does justice to its blockbuster panorama.
Second only to Leone, Sergio Corbucci is the king of the spaghetti western.
The picture signaled a welcome return to the settings and themes of Rossellini’s neorealist origins after years of baffling experiments.
Overrated when first released and underrated since, Rossellini’s trenchant tale of redemption is ripe for rediscovery.
A throwaway package for a pair of interesting Rossellini curios.
