The Italian Connection (1972)

Poster for The Italian Connection

When the Godfather signs your contract... there's no place in the world you can hide!

When a shipment of heroin disappears between Italy and New York, a small-time pimp in Milan is framed for the theft. Two professional hitmen are dispatched from New York to find him, but the real thieves want to get rid of him before the New York killers get to him to eliminate any chance of them finding out he's the wrong man.
