Of Nanni Loy
From Nanni Loy's 1994 film, with Mastroianni who plays the same chief of the Woman of Sunday, another thriller F&L Turin, and that affirms, in an interview: "The thing that fascinates me most (of the film) is this snowfall we had to create, a snowfall without. Instead, when I was living in San Donato, in a popular district, and in the war just over, it was cold for real. "
The empty, nocturnal market during winter is a spooky place, suitable for the urban crime scenes of Fruttero and Lucentini's novel.
