Francesco Rosi was filmmaker citizen. His cinema was an act of faith to law, a complaint, a cry of rage, a flight of hope. The search for truth was the stimulus that has accompanied him throughout his career. The representation of the true fact, real, irrefutable. His stories denouncing the malfeasance because he was the first to want things to be done well, even the bartender who prepared the coffee. Precise and specific earning it the title of Professor by friends like Ettore Scola. He was the first Director to deal with high level of material awkward as corruption, Mafia and war. Has raised questions, shocked consciences. His films besides being social surveys, are also pages of great cinema. Has been able to tell with great sense of story-telling true stories, une Éternité.. Hands over the city tells of speculation in a common Neapolitan, as the building permits were adjusted in order to arrive at a new building expansion. The sense of powerlessness in the face of the way of doing politics that for years has sullied our country. The Mattei affair tells the story of the Eni President Enrico Mattei and his tragic end. The way of working of Mattei unprejudiced but brilliant led him to offer the most advantageous conditions for the exploitation of oil resources Arab producers, they earned the enmity of the anglo-American countries which were outweighed by the Italian offer. The film does not explain the causes of death of Mattei, but it can be argued the assumptions. Years later you will find that the accident was not. Lucky Luciano will investigate the relationship between the mafia and business. Where businessmen do not hesitate to ask for help from cosa nostra to progress in their activities. Gian Maria will is the actor who lends body and soul for cinema by becoming himself a symbol of the kind of narrative. Even today directors such as Martin Scorsese considered the work of Raj as one of the most insightful worldwide. Films like The challenge and The magliari are a symbol of Italian cinema in the world and how the great filmmakers from overseas have admired and you will be inspired with the glorious works of directors such as Raj. The last movie was The truce from the book by Primo Levi. We can safely say that Raj left us high quality educational materials that could be used in schools to understand our country and promote what was more to heart “get things right”.
