Confessions Of A Police Captain - 1971 - 7/10
AKA - Confessione di un commissario di polizia al procuratore della repubblica

Our cynical police captain is not crooked, but he is definitely bent.
Not above trying to arrange the murder of an untouchable crime lord.
Enter the newly appointed, idealistic District Attorney.

All he needs is evidence, and the Law will take care of the rest.
Martin Balsam is spot-on as the captain, and both he and Franco Nero work well together.
Very good Euro-Crime thriller, though for fans of this sub-genre this reinforces their worldview.
