Salvatore Giuliano Francesco Rosi's semi-documentary re-examination of the death of a notorious Sicilian outlaw re-defines dramatic re-creation of real events in the movies. You-are-there restagings in the exact locales, with many of the same people are matched with a resolute objectivity. The result is a film that inspired later political movies like The Battle of Algiers and "Z".   2/22/04 Posted by DVD Savant at February 21, 2004 09:57 PM
