Il processo di Verona (internationally released as The Verona Trial) is a 1963 Italian historical drama film directed by Carlo Lizzani. The film tells of the final phases of the Italian fascist regime, in particular the affair of the 1944 Verona trial, in which Galeazzo Ciano, Emilio De Bono, Giovanni Marinelli and other eminent Fascist officials (Carlo Pareschi and Luciano Gottardi) were sentenced to death and almost immediately executed by a shooting detachment, while Tullio Cianetti was sentenced to 30 years imprisonment.[1]
For her portrayal of Edda Mussolini-Ciano, Silvana Mangano won the two major Italian film awards, the David di Donatello for Best Actress and the Silver Ribbon in the same category.[2]

Bailiff, I want you to switch the juries. Bailiff: Yes, sir. Your honor, I object! Overruled. What did you tell him? I told him his name was in the ledger too. Da: His name wasn't in the ledger. Wait a second. Is this the law? What's going on over here? You honor... You're out of order. What's going on? I think that we have to-- I don't care what you think. Do something over here. What do I look like to you? Do something. Do something! Order! Your honor, We'd like to withdraw our plea of not guilty And enter a plea of guilty. ( <i>crowd chatters</i> ) Guilty? Judge: Order in the court! Order! Capone: Guilty?! ( <i>reporters shout</i> <i>questions indistinctly</i> ) Judge: Bailiff! I said, order! Your honor! Bailiff, clear the courtroom! Capone: Your honor! Judge: I want some control here! Eliot. Your honor! Your honor, is that justice? Reporter: Please, why did he switch the jury? What are you going to do now? Go after the organization? Excuse me. I'm asking, your honor, is this justice? What about justice? Your honor! Is this justice? Wait, wait, wait! Wait! Never stop. Never stop fighting till the fight is done. What'd he say? What are you saying? I said, never stop fighting till the fight is done. What? You heard me, capone. It's over. You're nothing but a lot of talk and a badge. Here endeth the lesson. You're a lot of talk and a badge. You're nothing but a lot of talk and a badge!
