Mark Il Poliziotto
The young and nice side of the law. But the cool, with a nickname
"Mark" that someone give to him in the United States. Plus, hi is
funny, he loves life and women. Mark is very far from the iron
commissioners played by Maurizio Merli, Franco Nero and Enrico Maria
Salerno, but he accentuate the cool side of those of Luc Merenda.But
Mark apart from being a young man like many others is just as
Commissioner implacable as his colleagues.
"Mark il Poliziotto" is an inspired idea, on the one hand is cool,
young, in the other is an hundred percent cop. A great success, for
this trilogy especially for this first movie. It's a good alchemy that
satisfies the softer audience feminine, and also the lover of pure hard
poliziottesco.
The audience loves Mark and not by chance that the protagonist was a
star of photo novels of the time. His name is Franco Gasparri and his
career was shattered by a tragic motorcycle accident which has
paralyzed him. In a few other films we find Gasparri, who died in 1999
but made immortal by his Mark.
This casual Commissioner investigates on Benzi an entrepreneur beyond
all suspicions, that according to our hero hides in his business, shady
dealings in drugs. As usual, hampered and criticized by the chief
(played by Albertazzi), Mark is able to pursue its investigations to
help a girl in trouble and having fun like all the other cases. Young,
with a capital Y.
The story is well structured and follows the stylistic features of the
genre. Here circulate less blood than usual and the ironic approach of
Mark accompanied by mild comedy of Brigadier Bonetti create a pleasant
view, with also a soundtrack that the backbone theme composed by
Stelvio Cipriani became very famous. Stelvio Massi was the director of
a major crime and poliziottesco and we remind him for "Squadra
Volante", "un Poliziotto Scomodo" and the film from the suggestive
title: "Sbirro la tua legge è lenta...la mia no" With Massi and
Gasparri are Lee J. Cobb nominated actor for two time Academy Award for
"Best Actor" and starred in several films, including "On the
Waterfront", "Angry Men", "The Day of the Owl" "The Exorcist" and the
TV series "The Virginian".Room for Giampiero Albertini well-known
face of Italian cinema and advertising. An actor by the strange
expression that made him famous as well as his voice used to dub such
as Peter Falk in "Colombo". Curiosities of "The Policeman Mark" is the
presence of the great boxer Juan Carlos Duran who plays a killer.
