Untitled

Shouldn't we include a note telling that this film is still censored here in Italy, even after 25 years of "free press" and "free speech"? it:Utente:Lohe

This article claims facts without substantiation in the Trivia section.

IMDb says the film has a runtime of 173 minutes; my copy of it is 156 minutes. Neither is anywhere near the 200+ suggested here - what's the best way to proceed? Bristle-krs 04:46, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry if i don't write in english.. Anche se è vero che Giulio Andreotti è stato accussato per mafia, e non sono qui per difenderlo, che cosa centra con questo film??

Rough translation: "even if it's true that Giulio Andreotti was accused of mafia and I'm not here to defend him, what does it matter with the film?" --Michael Billington (talk • contribs) 23:54, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This entry is completely unsubstantiated. The link to Scripta Manent is irrelevant. I clearly remember watching this movie on RAI once or twice in the Eighties. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.42.208.182 (talk) 14:58, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Italian version of this article makes the following points: The film was banned in 1982 because, in the words of Giulio Andreotti it "damages the honour of the army" (!) and there was a legal action against the film for "vilipendio delle Forze Armate" (defamation of the Armed Forces). In 1982 its screening in a cinema in Trento was banned by the DIGOS, a branche of the Italian state police. It was eventually shown at a film festival in Rimini and screened on the Sky TV channel in 2009.METRANGOLO1 (talk) 15:00, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pics

File:MoustaphaAkkad.jpg and File:MoustaphaAkkad.jpg seem production pictures during shooting. I'd add it to the article but I suspect that the uploader that claims them as own work may not really have the rights to them. --Error (talk) 18:03, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

position of Governor of Libya

The article states that Graziani was the 6th governor of Libya. Italo Balbo is listed as the first. Curious to see if there is more on that? eric ferguson 204.141.63.212 (talk) 22:57, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
