About The Executioner of Hearts
While filming on location in Tahiti, a small-time actor seizes an opportunity to make it big, but the attention may be more than he bargained for.
Directed by Christian Gion, The Executioner of Hearts leans on a strong ensemble — Aldo Maccione, Anna Maria Rizzoli, André Nader — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1983.
