Come join us for at 5 pm EDT for the first two episodes of Romanzo criminale – La serie! The show is an adaptation of the 2005 film Romanzo Criminale, in turn based on the 2002 novel of the same name by Giancarlo De Cataldo. Rougly based on the true story of the Banda della Magliana, a Roman criminal syndicate that emerged during the late 1970s amidst the political turmoil of the Years of Lead. Shot on location in and around Rome, most of the characters speak Romanesco. The series (and the film it's based off of) form a kind of central Italian companion piece to Gomorrah, which I will also be showing at some point.
Episode 1 opens with the news of the killing of the lawyer Fulvio Croce by the Brigate Rossi in 1977. Three friends, Libanese, Freddo, and Dandi, decide to up their game from petty crime to the domination of the Roman criminal underground. Opposite them is police commissioner Nicola Scialoja, whose links to communists lead to his investigation into the gang being undermined by his superiors, whose links to GLADIO and neo-Fascist organizations become evident later on. Episode 2 sees the trio, flush with cash, begin to flesh out their vision of a criminal empire. This show was a cult favorite in Italy when it aired; it's a favorite of mine as well.
