Fernando Di Leo's "Milano Calibro 9" is an out-and-out masterpiece of Italian Crime cinema and, in my opinion, one of the most astonishing crime stories ever told. The first film in Di Leo's excellent 'Milieu' trilogy, "Milano Calibro 9" was followed by "La Mala Ordina" (aka. "Manhunt", also 1972) and the brilliant "Il Boss" (1973). The three films are not connected story-wise, but all three are excellent, and highly realistic portrayals of organized crime. As far as I am concerned "Manhunt" is (allthough excellent) slightly inferior to this one and "Il Boss" which both stand out as absolute all-time highlights of crime cinema. "Milano Calibro 9" is the best of them all, a film that is astonishing in all aspects, be it the ingenious plot that, apart from a compelling story and clever twists, includes social criticism, the performances, the gritty atmosphere and suspense or the brilliant score. I can hardly find the right words to express my admiration for this masterpiece which easily ranks among the greatest Gangster flicks ever brought to screen.
Gastone Moschin stars as Ugo Piazza, a tough and elliptical ex-convict who has just been released from prison. Immediately after his release, Ugo is approached by members of the Milan mob lead by the irascible gangster Rocco (Mario Adorf), as they suspect him to be responsible for the disappearance of a large sum of money belonging to their boss, an American (Lionel Stander) who controls the organized crime in Milan...
"Milano Calibro 9" is a film that delivers an astonishingly realistic mood of the underworld like hardly another. The intriguing storyline goes in hand with interesting characters, raw atmosphere, suspense and breathtaking action, social criticism and brutal violence. The film is simply stunning from the beginning to the end, which is even intensified by the brilliant score, a collaboration of the famous composer Luis Enríquez Bacalov and the Italian Progressive Rock band Osanna. Ugo Piazza must be one of the most charismatic gangster characters ever in cinema, and Gastone Moschin was the prefect choice for the role. Moschin delivers a brilliant performance, and the rest of the cast is also great. Mario Adorf is irascible like a rabid dog as the ferocious gangster Rocco, a role that fits him like a glove. The great Lionel Stander fits perfectly in his role of the American Mafia Don.
The two cop characters in the film are played by two of the greatest regulars of Italian genre-cinema, Luigi Pistilli and Frank Wolff (who committed suicide before the film was released). The ravishing Barbara Bouchet is astonishing and incredibly sexy in the role of Ugo Piazza's stripper girlfriend. Bouchet is both a stunning beauty and an excellent actress and this is doubtlessly one of her most memorable roles. This is also a political film and director Di Leo embedded a lot of social criticism about topics like corruption. This film simply has everything one can possibly desire in cinema. Films like "Milano Calibro 9" are the reason why I love cinema. This is an absolute masterpiece in all regards and, without exaggeration, one of the greatest Crime flicks ever made! The ingenious opening scene alone is more memorable than most films get in two hours.
色调很好看，但看了一半没看完，实在一般情绪上，小孩的演技不动人
8.0/10 平平淡淡，像溪水一般无意识地缓缓流淌，全片展示的就是一段两人自然相处的时光，温暖，有趣，平和。/ 生活中发生的，改变的那些种种，何不是潜移默化渗透进来的呢。那些对于生活一次又一次的错误的预计之后的那段‘C’mon, C'mon, C'mon’, 希望是带着笑说的吧～/ 采访对白都好好玩嘻嘻，很真挚～/ 片中一切都好美～大概因为观影时心很平静吧～老文艺片effect了哈哈
尊重 好奇 互相启迪 几乎是我理想中完美的亲子关系 成人永远不知道可以从孩子那里学到多少 人究竟经过了怎样的成长 才会忘记认知自己 【叔好温柔 羡慕他和Mara的娃 【成年人就是不断还贷款🥲 202203 好治愈 希望能帮我克服收假blue
好舒服好温柔的一个片子，在城市间穿梭，收录着沙滩列车行人的声音，大人小孩情感的交流和接纳，一起呼喊i'm not fine. 中间穿插着所有的关于未来关于现在关于超能力的采访都充满了亲和力和想象力。
养孩子真难 现在的小孩都那么有想象力吗 我只记得我还是孩子的时候脑子里几乎没有世界这个概念 或许我忘了 我已经忘记孩子时候的我 每天睡觉前会想些什么 我会记日记 但那都是身边的事 关于我想要什么 未来会什么样 我从来没有想象 有一对理解你的父母是最美妙的事了
很简单的电影，特别平淡，特别温柔。舅舅给小朋友读人类来到地球的故事那一段莫名的被感动了。在大的温情框架下渗透了一些零零散散关于人生的思考，温情又不会用力过猛。看到最后才注意到是黑白的。
迄今为止，人生中哪一件事情是你认为的最悲伤的事；你害怕孤独吗；如果你可以拥有一种超能力，你希望是哪一种超能力；什么样的关系会让你感到紧张；你长大后希望成为一个什么样的人；有什么决定你会为之后悔，并渴望拥有重新选择的机会；你最好的朋友最吸引你的地方是什么；你认为成年人是一种什么样的人，跟小孩子有什么不同。像是一张针对小朋友的“普鲁斯特问卷”，看似开放式的提问隐藏的却是家庭教育、学校教育以及整个社会体系给孩子的直观感受，毕竟他们面对记录的话筒尚未学会遮遮掩掩，小孩子才会自信地回答，“成年人存在的意义是赚钱以及偿还助学贷款”。电影认为，小孩子都是哲学家，尤其知道自己想要什么，又该如何去追求，反而变成大人，每个人都被社会教化，按照一套标准答案无限趋近一种相似的人生。成年人最必要做的是不要让自己变蠢。
从隔阂中开始，在化解中结束。故事细腻，娓娓道来，剧情设定像西方版《菊次郎的夏天》，但东西方文化确实是有不小差异。黑白摄影总是与生俱来一种孤独落寞感，绝美质感也为影片加了很多分。
- "Yeah, you'll barely remember this. You'll have, like,a few blurry memories of this whole trip."
such a beautiful movie in its own right. magically, first time feel right to have a movie in black and white. often thought childhood is the most carefree period and forgot it's also almost the most sensitive time, compelled to take in the turbulences from surrounding environments, and struggled to cope as much as adults, so not really an easy time in retrospect. this movie covers this topic with such tenderness and well crafted structure, nicely done
一开始，我想掐死这个讨厌的小孩。然后可能我们都喜欢他了吧，彼此驯服彼此接纳，与人共度时光多么有魔力啊。
“只剩下点点繁星在空中闪烁”
非典型类型片，菲尼克斯像是一个爱告状的大男孩，总是告小男孩的状，哈哈哈
喜欢导演关于父母子女的很多观点，导演也是个温柔的人啊。并get了其中一篇关于母亲的论文或书。采访孩子的段落应该都是真实的吧，孩子们的表达很纯真深刻。对比那个时候的自己简直是个SB，当然现在也是。
我觉得主要论点是亲密关系使人成长，同时夹杂了太多政治正确的支线论点。
就像偶然截取的人生片段，没有前因，没有后果，也没有那么多“为什么”的答案。你要做活在地球上的小孩，就要准备好去拥抱痛苦、不安、悲伤、混乱、无意义的废话，和一点快乐。无论朝向怎样的未来，总还是要往前走。C’mon c’mon.
太细腻了. 太喜欢了. 拿捏的真好. Felix和小男孩演的真好. 女主演的也挺好的.
又或许，最后二人的爆发打动了我：我可以感觉很糟，我有感觉很糟的权利，这太扯淡了。
i am easy to be found
一个孤独的人突然有所爱，有责任所在，是多么美好。一同成长。在新的关系中，释怀过去。
