A rather slow-paced Italian crime drama that's unlike the rest of the ones I've seen. This one stars Franco Nero, as per normal, but what's different is that he actually plays the criminal here. He undertakes an elaborate ruse by masquerading as a crippled old man in an office building, secretly planning the whole time to rob the place in his genuine character of an athletic young man. There's not much more to it than that, and attempts at character work only serve to slow the pace down. There are better and worse films out there.
