    Il Divo (2008)
    This Italian movie gives us a dark view of the long period that Giulio Andreotti was prime minister. It was also the period where the Mafia went on the rampage and the Red Brigade kidnapped and eventually killed the former PM Aldo Moro.
    Andreotti was eventually put on trial for some disappearances & killings of political enemies but was acquitted of everything.
    The dangerous times are illustrated by his habit of walking the streets of Rome in the early hours accompanied by three carloads of security armed with submachine guns.
    Good movie.
