#MarcoFerreri's Dillinger è morto (1969) is a story of food & alienation. #MichelPiccoli's Glauco, bored of his successful career, bored of his beautiful wife, bored of his beautiful house, finds sudden vigour in the act of preparing #food and restoring an item that shouldn't be where it is and with that, essentially recreates #JohnDillinger's escape from Crown Point ☞ https://write.underworld.fr/settima/dillinger-e-morto-1969
