Fernando Di Leo is getting a retrospective screening of his most notable films at the Metrograph in New York City. The late Italian filmmaker is known for his kenetic crime and poliziotteschi (police procedural) films, has been repeatedly hailed by modern pulp master Quentin Tarantino as a major influencer on not only his style, but also in inspiring him to even become a filmmaker.

In numerous interviews, Tarantino has said how watching Padroni della Città (Mister Scarface) was what flipped the switch, and which led him to watching all of Di Leo's films and deep diving into film with a passion.
