 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Salvatore Giuliano is a 1962 film directed by Francesco Rosi.It is a biopic of Salvatore Giuliano, Sicilian bandit who was a fugitive crime lord in Sicily, from shortly after the Allied liberation of the island in 1943, to his murder in 1950 at the age of 27. The film picks up in 1945, with the war over and the restoration of civilian government in Italy. In Sicily, pro-independence politicians are fomenting armed revolt against the government in Rome. Needing soldiers, they enlist Giuliano's gang of bandits as anti-Roman militia.A guerilla war ensues with Giuliano and his men regularly ambushing and killing Italian soldiers and police, even as the Rome government sends the regular army to the island in an attempt to wipe them out, and the police make mass arrests. The government makes a deal in which Sicily gains limited autonomy, which makes Giuliano less useful to the politicians in Sicily. Giuliano returns to banditry. He and his band shoot up a Communist rally in 1947, which turns popular opinion against them. Eventually the mob and the police start conspiring to bring Giuliano down.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })See also novel and film The Sicilian, which were also about Salvatore Giuliano. (The book was written by Mario Puzo and shared continuity with his Godfather novels.)

 Distant Finale: The last scene skips forward eight years to the murder of Nunzio in 1960, implied to be delayed retribution for his part in the betrayal of Giuliano.

 Anachronic Order: The film starts with the authorities finding Giuliano's corpse in 1950. Then it cuts to 1945 and the Sicilian separatists enlisting Giuliano in their cause. From there the film unfolds in two separate narrative threads, bouncing back and forth between scenes of Giuliano's 1945-1950 career, and scenes set 1950-1952 with the investigation of Giuliano's murder and the trial of his men for the massacre at the Communist rally.

 Dramatic Gun Cock: Pisciotta dramatically works the action of his submachine gun just to scare Nunzio.
