Francesco Rosis Illustrious Corpses (1976), based on Leonardo Sciascias novel, is a haunting political thriller where a string of assassinated judges exposes the rot within Italys institutions. Blending mystery, paranoia, and state conspiracy, Rosi crafts a chilling reflection of 1970s Italy part crime procedural, part philosophical warning about power and corruption.

When a series of Supreme court judges are murdered, inspector Rogas (Lino Ventura, Army of Shadows) is sent to discover the truth. A procedural noir soon turns into a labyrinthine conspiracy thriller as corruption and institutional power converge. An investigative mystery by a titan of the form, Francesco Rosis (The Mattei Affair) urgent adaptation of Leonardo Sciascias (The Day of the Owl) novel is set to a haunting score by Piero Piccioni (The Tenth Victim) and features legendary stars Charles Vanel (The Wages of Fear), Max von Sydow (The Exorcist) and Fernando Rey (The French Connection).
