Francesco Rosi, who worked with Luchino Visconti on the filming of La terra trema (The Earth Trembles), created “cine-investigation” with Salvatore Giuliano, which would later enjoy significant development in Italy. Rosi defines his film as follows: “A speech over the body of Julius Caesar” In other words, the bandit Giuliano, as such, is less important to him than a portrait of Sicily. By adopting such an approach, Rosi goes into “a vast operation to demystify the bandit of honour, he encircles its radical inauthenticity (...).” (Freddy Buache; Italian Cinema 1945-1990)
