Clem has an inferiority complex towards the fellow filmmaker Theo, whom he accuses of having blown a woman and an Oscar. The two decide to transfer directly to the competition in the arts, making a film on the life of one. Each makes his screenplay to the sound of low blows.
Neurotic uplifting final duel, wrote and directed by Damiani (from a play and its Raffaele La Capria) with many ambitions, but without much inspiration.
This is Gioco Al Massacro, a rare to find Italian movie!! It seems to have been sourced from an Australian VHS (check the ratings certificate at the start). Looking round the internet for any info on this has been really hard, not much information on this movie at all. I've seen it on Giallo lists all over the net but thats where I don't agree, I would not consider this to be a Giallo at all, but, watch it yourselves and make up your own minds!!
I would like to apologise firstly to the following synopsis, as stated earlier, I have found it very hard to find any reviews on this film and the most lengthy synopsis I could find was in Italian, so if some of this is hard to grasp it's because i've run it through Google Translator. Sorry & Thankyou!!
Synopsis
The relationship between Theo and Clem - two film directors - has never been the best. Less brilliant and productive, the latter has always suspected that Theo has caught the idea for a film that earned them one of his four Oscars, not to mention Bella, Theo went from Clem. Despite his youth in common, we are therefore between the two rust on one side and envy, irony and a bit of sadism on the other. Yet, when it comes to the gate of the beautiful villa in Capri, where Theo holds court spread, Clem was well received. There is still a certain friendship between the two, despite squabbling and stabs. Clem begins with Bella seduced. Theo not notice, but the event did not shake. The match will be played at the level of art: each of the two (the challenge proposed by him) will make a film about the life of another, dissected each other, as finally hitting bottom. Theo suggests Clem also discuss what to include in on transsexuality, taking advantage of the presence of a hermaphrodite and, while Clem accepts (and begins to auditions for "Rosita"), the friend spy every move and word, hiring an actor to the role of Clem. In addition, 'and to press upon him, made him finance his film by the manufacturer Plank. Word began to spread that Theo - now really exhausted and no ideas - is very ill and will die shortly. Maybe that's why Clem (aware of it) went to Capri to see, he loser, the degradation of his friend and take revenge on him. It may well be, however, that the news is false, yet another trick of the victorious Theo decided to turn that the pathetic death foretold "highlight" of the film on Clem. These no longer resist the psychological pressure which is subjected, and the man escapes from Capri, which last seems to have wanted to play and cheating with his person. A year later, in a large cinema in New York, Clem sees the last film of Theo, who died not long indeed: the work in which he was mercilessly represented, but with friendship, for better or for worse. And Clem seem to stay, once more ', a loser in front of the brilliant creativity and mastery of his friend and rival.

О чём фильм уже и не помню, знаю что его снимали где-то в Америке, кажется в Нью-Йорке. Фильм не о мафии, его название при показе на ТВ было "Игра в убийство", это психологическая драма. Там вроде было два друга, один из них приехал к другому в Америку.

Долго искал этот фильм, раньше не успел скачать.
Фильм Дамиани слабый по режиссуре, есть напряжённые моменты, интересные сюжетные ходы.
Вот комиссар полиции разочаровавшийся в правосудии был в "Признание комиссара полиции прокурору республики" (1971).
Прослушка телефонов была "Связь через пиццерию" (1985).
Интересно было увидеть Джироне времён "Спрута" в фильме Дамиани в роли комиссара полиции.
Ну а так Дамиани старался измениться, даже компьютер появился в фильме, чего больше не было ни в одном другом его фильме.
Музыка Ортолани местами напоминает спрутовскую.
