Frank and Tony aka Escape From Death Row (aka Dio, sei proprio un padreterno!) 1973

There’s trouble in Frankie Diomede’s criminal empire in Genoa. A French gangster has moved into Frankie’s territory, so Frankie flies home to take care of business. He promptly has himself arrested so that he’ll have the perfect alibi when his top local associate dies, but then Frankie’s life gets complicated: his enemies have enough juice to keep him in prison for awhile, his associates and allies are killed one at a time, and attempts on his life start. Help comes from an unlikely source: Tony Breda, a wannabe wiseguy who’s a Milanese raised in Hoboken. Tony designs a plan to spring Frankie from jail, and then all roads lead to Marseilles. Is Tony a future Mafia don?
