Here he is.

Harry, formal introductions later. We're a bit short of time. Sit down over

here.

It's the art theft last Thursday. Yes.

That film came with the Marquesas morning mail.

Carolina Cara, most real Villaletra.

Show him what came with it. Si.

A catalogue listing everything they took.

With the lot numbers.

Yes, but wait till you hear the covering letter.

If you want to preserve these capitalistic baubles, you can bid for

auction. 1500 R, 27 Canale, Marco Polo. One word to the police and we will

destroy the lot.

Signed, Red Army, Group C.

Rem.

I don't think we have any choice, Harry. I think you and I should go to this

auction. I'm not so sure.

Why not?

I know your concerns for these artworks, but I think there's something much

bigger than that.

Bigger? You realize who we're dealing with? Yes, of course.

These people want money to finance their activities, to buy arms and ammunition.

To gun down more innocent people.

You are saying that our main concern should be to stop them.

To save human lives before works of art.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

Call in the police.

No, Mr. Rule. You have read the letter.

Put a thousand years of culture at risk.

I think it's not at risk already.

No, police, please.

At least not before the auction.

All right.

I'll go just that.

Fuck.

It's the house alright, but it's an odd place to hold an auction.

Seems like we're either the first or the only bidders.

That's us. We're here.

Rio de Patalomeo?

Piazza Lombardi?

Rating, yes.

Canale Marco Polo?

Remember, they got buyers scattered all over town.

Canale Marco Polo?

Will you answer, please?

Canale Marco Polo, will you answer?

Yes, ready.

Bene. Then shall we begin?

You have your catalogs. Lot 1 is the Bellini Crucifixion.

We'll start at, say, $10 ,000.

Marco Polo.

Stall them. I'll contact the police.

We'll both break a few rules.

Wait a minute. Marco Polo, what's going

on? Yes, well, you're going so far. Where are we?

40 ,000.

Yes,

all right.

45.

Marco Polo, 55 ,000. 55?

Any advance on 55?

Going at 55 ,000?

Gone to Marco Polo.

All right. Plot three.

Tintoretto Venus.

Starting at 20.

Not so fast, for heaven's sake. I've got to write that down.

Marco Polo, 35 ,000. Right, settled.

The Madonna and Child sold to Marco Polo for 35 ,000. Now we must move on, as

I'm sure you will appreciate.

Lot 9.

Calle di Santa Monica.

Calle di Santa Monica. Presto.

$300 ,000.

Going for $300 ,000.

Going, going.

$400 ,000.

Reva Angeli.

Going for four. Any advance on $400 ,000?

Half a million.

Any advance on half a million?

Any advance?

Sold to Rocco Polo.

That's $1 ,900 ,000 you owe us. You will be contacted.

How to pay? Leo, please. You were told.

No police.

All right. You've been spotted. Hurry. Stupid mistake.

radio station.

They obviously broke in and used the transmitter.

It's the obscure.

Something famous.

Something beautiful.

That will hurt, Chuck.

Why not smash that one?

No.

Their instructions are clear enough.

We are to take the money to the Rialto Bridge at 11 o 'clock tomorrow.

Now, Mr. Rule, we want your solemn word this time, no police.

Well, I'm sorry, no.

We have no guarantee that they'll honor their instructions.

Why would they pick a bridge?

Well, I don't know. It's too open. That's obviously a trick. But why?

Because they have their logic and we have ours.

And our logic is to get those art treasures back any way we can. And to

men out of circulation. No, Harry. Yes, we can do both.

I'll cable Paul, we'll watch the bridge, you hand the money over to them, and

we'll follow.

Buongiorno, signora Madonna. Buongiorno, Marchesa.

Contesa? Prego, si accomodi.

they put us ashore on Santa Maria.

We were marooned there for over an hour.

Che cosi facciamo?

Okay.

You're right.

What do we do now?

Find them. In my case, it's impossible to see that film again.

Hold it.

Run it forwards.

Outside the window. That bell tower.

Harry, I think we're in business.

There.

Okay, there are two possible angles.

Southeast, northwest.

And spread out.

Hold it there if you can.

That's it.

The window must be that.

No way.

Vincenzo, see if they're full of...

Niente.

Get the rest of the guns and the ammunition out of here.

Raise your arms.

You see that timing device?

You hear it lock?

It is set for three minutes.

Why?

Shall we say shock therapy?

To cure a mad society?

He's thick.

What will killing us achieve?

Look at this statue.

What do you see?

Marble.

We have one minute.

Listen.

Caroline! Caroline!

Hurry! In here!

The key!

What happened?

I had to do it.

I had to.

Shock therapy to cure a mad society.

It's about...
