01:01 They could sell these films to different parts of the world.

01:04 Italian police movies have been a big thing all over the world.

01:08 I don't need no break.

01:09 That's not roll... Is it rolling?

01:10 I'm alright. I'm rolling.

01:11 Fine, let it roll.

01:12 [Music]

01:21 There was a certain style to these things.

01:23 Gandalf, Megadeth, and so on.

01:24 They took this genre of police movies and they made it their own.

01:28 [Music]

01:31 Let's say in America they put... You know what set up is?

01:33 Yeah.

01:34 You know where your camera goes and you do...

01:36 Here they do three or four a day. I would do like 120.

01:39 [Music]

01:43 It was like one stunt after the other.

01:45 Italian stuntman say, "Oh, you can do it. You can do it. It's not that far."

01:48 We're in a car and we... We... Like this.

01:52 We go again. Boom. Boom.

01:54 I think I peed my pants.

01:56 We're using a real knife.

01:57 I said, "Are you going to really shoot?"

01:59 He insisted in having it loaded.

02:01 Like that far away from me.

02:03 It was one live round in the gun.

02:05 He fired real shots, real bullets right, you know, about a foot away from me.

02:10 I said, "Actually, you know, I'll fight with him, but not with a loaded gun."

02:13 I said, "This is bullshit."

02:14 God, you risk my life doing this stuff?

02:16 I've done a few things too many.

02:20 I still have 30% in validity.

02:22 I'm just getting over the results.

02:26 [Music]

02:31 He strips him down and castrates him.

02:33 Machine gunning, a bunch of kids coming home from school.

02:36 We drove a forklift through a person.

02:38 He takes his genitals while he's screaming, shoves them in his mouth.

02:41 You know, he did the death dance.

02:43 Now, that was popular. Everybody wanted to do the death dance.

02:45 For us, when we were shooting the movies,

02:48 violence was like a black humor.

02:51 How many they're going to kill today?

02:53 Three, four, no, six.

02:55 You understand violence.

02:56 Violence.

02:57 A lot of violence.

03:00 There had been a surge of crime going on in Italy.

03:03 The entire city of Rome was blocked.

03:06 You couldn't get out of the city without seeing a policeman in the street stopping you.

03:10 Carabinieri on street corners with a machine gun.

03:16 I was robbed three times.

03:17 The policeman was saying, "See Naples and die."

03:21 There was some mafia presence.

03:23 I said, "So we'll pay off the Camaro."

03:26 He said, "That's not the idea. You pay off one Camaro, and then the other one is another Camaro,

03:30 and then they start killing each other, and you're right in the middle of it."

03:33 There was a lot of things going on in Italy of terrorism at the time.

03:37 It was the Red Brigade.

03:38 Red Brigade.

03:39 Le Brigate Rosso, the Red Brigade.

03:41 Suddenly, kidnapping started to take place in Italy.

03:44 I happened to know a couple of people that could have been killed.

03:47 I'd miss a bombing by two blocks.

03:49 They were shoving the police around.

03:54 It's a nose-eyeing disillusionment.

03:59 Wow.

04:01 Press some bullets.

04:03 Tell them about the politics.
