Spine#: 506
**Minor Spoilers**
A strangely unique experimental film directed by Marco Ferreri, Dillinger is Dead shows a day in the life of Glauco, your ordinary, everyday, hard working gas mask designer... That is, until he gets a gun out of his closet, disassembles it, marinates it in lemon juice, uses the lemon juice in the meal hes preparing, reassembles the gun and paints it red with white polka dots. 
After all that takes place, things start to get weird.. A few things in particular stood out as outstandingly beautiful and original to me; one being the use of full length American pop songs to make up most of the score, giving the film an eerie, unsettling feel and the other being the scenes between Glauco and his projector screen. This colorful, beautifully shot, work of art is a must see.. Oh, and it has one of the best endings out of the 120 Criterion's Ive seen.
IMDB: ********* 9/10
Netflix***** 5/5
