Property Is No Longer a Theft

A struggling young bank clerk (Flavio Bucci)--considered a bad credit risk by even his own employer--chooses to take his frustrations out on his least favorite customer, a prosperous, arrogant, and dishonest butcher (Ugo Tognazzi). The tenacious teller makes a new career out of pilfering his target’s possessions one-by-one, up to and including the victim’s gorgeous mistress (Dario Nicolodi). Darkly farcical caper story from director Elio Petri ("Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" co-stars Mario Scaccia, Orazio Orlando. 126 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Italian Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English; featurettes. In Italian with English subtitles.
