"Giornata nera per l'ariete", a.k.a. "The Fifth Cord", is a boring and tiresome Italian thriller. The reporter Andrea Bild, performed Franco Nero, is an unpleasant character. The cinematography, camera work and shadows are magnificent. However, the screenplay is not engaging; the conclusion is weak; and the motive of the murders is silly and absurd. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "Um Dia Negro" ("A Black Day")
