Il Generale della Rovere (1959) (original) (raw)
In Genoa in 1943, Emanuele Bardone is a rascal and swindler pretending to be a colonel in the Italian army in order to extort money from the families of people jailed by the Nazis. Once caught, the Gestapo bargain with him: he will stay alive if he agrees to impersonate Generale Della Rovere, a leader of the Resistance who the Nazis have just shot. They propose to put him in a political prison where he will then identify another Resistance leader.
