Gli amici di Nick Hezard (1976)

International title: Nick the Sting

Director

Fernando Di Leo

Storyline

Geneva, Switzerland. The son of a well-known deceased fraudster, young Nick Hezard is a small time con man, totally unworthy of his "great" parent. Crime boss Robert Clark involuntarily provides Nick the opportunity to emulate his father: after using him to defraud insurance companies by faking a jewel theft, Clark attempts to kill Nick. To exact revenge on Clark, who also killed a friend of his, Hezard conceives an elaborate con, helped by a team of expert scam artists. First he forces the boss to give him 200,000 Swiss francs for protection. This way, funded by his own victim, Nick has Clark arrested by false cops under the charge of a murder that never took place, and transferred in a mock police station, where a false magistrate eventually releases him, allowing Clarke to takes refuge in Venezuela, in exchange for the four million francs paid to him by the insurance company. Turner falls headlong into the trap, and not only loses the money, but also the jewelry.

Thank you. On this occasion I do not agree with you. I just can't convince myself it's not Zamperla but that doesn't mean I'm right, of course. I would wait a couple of days to see if we gather any more opinions and then remove it.

06 should be Margarita Puratich.

10 and 16 is Flora Carosello.

And 03 I think is a known actor. He looks VERY familiar, but I can't remember from where...
