Story

Clint Harris is one of the best hired Killers of the Organisation but he ´s done with it and wants to leave the business. The Organisation gets him for a last job to get rid of a traitor and this time even with a partner. The target is hard to locate because that person has done a face-change operation. The two Killers are on the hunt but after some time it is unclear who to trust and how to finish the mission……

The film’s seriousness, together with the cool visuals and slow pace, positions “Tecnica di un Omicidio” more in the direction of Jean-Pierre Melville’s “Le Samourai” (1967) then the usual direction of Eurocrime movies. 

„Hired Killer“ is a impressive Gangster movie with an american look, an outstanding cast and with a fantastic score.

Story

Trick scams and thefts are part of everyday life in Rome – a world in which Nico Giraldi (Tomas Milian) is very familiar. The full-bearded long-haired man doesn’t show that he is a policeman. But that is deceptive, because Giraldi, whose mother was a prostitute and who grew up in the streets of Rome, knows his crooks and knows how to get hold of them. But when two little thieves accidentally steal the briefcase from the American Norman Shelley (Jack Palance), the situation changes. Officially, Shelley does not turn on the police because there are supposedly only worthless things in the briefcase, but when the thieves open the case, they know it will be dangerous. Soon one of them will be brutally murdered …

The first “Monnezza” and a true Poliziottesco starring Tomas Milian and Jack Palance!
