This is: Il Prefetto di Ferro' (The Iron Prefect). 1977
Ennio Morricone's soundtrack for The Iron Prefect perfectly captures the tense, dramatic atmosphere of 1925 Sicily, as Cesare Mori leads a relentless campaign against the Mafia. Morricone's score reflects the moral complexities of Mori’s ironfisted approach by blending sweeping orchestral melodies with dark, brooding undertones. Haunting motifs evoke both the oppressive power of fascism and the deeprooted fear that surrounds the Mafia, while moments of subtle tension highlight the personal struggle of a man on a mission. The music elevates the film’s historical drama, creating a powerful sense of unease and inevitability.
