Riccardo Cucciolla and Gian Maria Volontè are Sacco and Vanzetti, subjects of one of the most infamous trials of the twentieth century. Boston, 1920. Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, known for their anarchist beliefs, stand accused of robbery and murder. Their political leanings are used as evidence against them, but defense attorney Fred Moore (Milo O'Shea) is convinced of their innocence. As anti-immigrant and anti-radical sentiments run high, one of the most polarizing trials in U.S. history unfolds in this riveting docudrama from director Giuliano Montaldo. The musical score was composed and conducted by the great Ennio Morricone featuring folk music legend Joan Baez. The top-notch cast also includes Cyril Cusack, Geoffrey Keen, William Prince and Claude Mann.
