Referencing the Pier Paolo Pasolini classic film L'ACCATONE
simonize8508 September 2022
This two part story has been translated as "The tramp". That title isn't enough as Pasolini's film centred upon the dire circumstances of poverty.

The first story of season 3 reveals the murdered priest lived a truly wretched existence and ended his life in abject loneliness. Here Rocco and his team investigate the death of a homeless person in enter months. If you have seen this series with its beautiful outdoors, and attractive housing it comes as a shock that others are living at the bottom of the spectrum.

It may come as a surprise that Rocco can show sympathy fo those fortunate while often being needlessly cruel to colleagues who would benefit from his encouragement or simple acknowledgment (eg. Use first names). He continually challenges his superiors whose support he nfs; he is certainly not a. E lying to them.

The three men he three friends from Rome are hard men harder than the criminals Rocco come up against.

It's refreshing to view how Rocco concludes this case.

It needs to be said, viewers should read the four books that make up the series. Especially as Manzini's scripts for the television series take very different directions.
