I Am the Law

I Am the Law, also known as The Iron Prefect, is a 1977 Italian drama film directed by Pasquale Squitieri. The film tells the story of Cesare Mori, an Italian prefect that before and during the Fascist period was best known as "the Iron Prefect", and it is based on the biographic book with the same name written by Arrigo Petacco. The film shared with In the Name of the Pope King the 1978 David di Donatello for Best Film. The film was well-received but also criticized for subtly downplaying Mori's fascism.
