I brought home seven Giancarlo Giannini movies, anticipating great movie weekend. And some of them did not disappoint me.However, the picture of the week is not one of them. It is, instead, that of a storm trooper, armed with the MP-5 sub-machine gun (some correct terminology here), equipped with the tactical light under its barrel. The picture that was not supposed to happen or exist. The one that the New York Times and Washington Post were not brave enough to put on their front pages. It fell onto generaly pretty lame Philadelphia paper to do so.
It used to be that troopers like that were involved when someone's life was at stake, not the political future of few spotty characters.
I lament the fact that in a country with free and independent media the troopers would be met by several news crews, greeted with camera lights and live feed to the TV stations around the country. Here it was all controlled in that department, and quite well, thank you. No Bernard Shaw at scene... no Dan I'd Rather count my millions...
Too bad for them they missed that lonely photographer. Lucky for us, they did not dare to rip his camera. So there is still some hope.
Therefore, my strong nomination. Sorry, Giancarlo, next week, perhaps?
For now, as they used to say in Rome, Lions - five, Christians - zero.
