7/10
flawed but worth watching

I saw this in a little cinema in West Wales when it came out. It is a beautiful looking film with with some good acting in it. But Mr Lambert's performance is not very good. If you don't know the film is about a real life 1940s Sicilian bandit. Same subject as the Italian film Salvatore Giuliano. The script is good at times an awful at other times. I assume I saw the longer version in 1987,certainly this is the version I have on dvd. This film has a poor reputation but I argue that at least in the longest version it is worth seeing. If you like The Mafia films such as The Godfather and Once Upon A Time In America you will like this.
